Summary

Membership subscriptions and regular gifts are a significant contributor to the Trust’s total income from supporters.

As we’re looking to increase growth even more, an opportunity has arisen and we’re looking for someone to work alongside the Head of Supporter Recruitment to support and deliver the development of the National Trust’s Supporter Recruitment objectives.

Salary £28,400 - £30,213 dependent on experience.

What it's like to work here

This role sits within the Supporter Recruitment Team, working alongside Head of Supporter Recruitment. Although part of the Whole Trust Membership Team, the Supporter Recruitment team also works very closely and in an integrated way with the Whole Trust Fundraising Team, and in particular colleagues working on Public Fundraising. The Supporter Recruitment Team is results and outcome focused and works across the Trust network of Consultancy and Operations, as well as closely alongside Whole Trust colleagues.

Your contractual location will be our head office in Swindon, however there will be an opportunity to explore and agree remote working arrangements which strike the right balance for you and the Trust.

What you'll be doing

You’ll be working on major projects and workstreams, ensuring we have the analysis, insight, support, tools, and systems of work needed to achieve all aspects of the Trust’s Supporter Recruitment ambition.

Working closely with Communications and Insight, the Growing Support Consultancy, and properties on our supporter recruitment requirements, you’ll write clear marketing briefs, work in collaboration with other teams to develop and review creative content, and co-ordinate the production of Direct and Operational supporter recruitment marketing materials.

This is varied role and it’s about finding innovative solutions to issues. No two days will be same the same but it’s both rewarding and challenging.

Who we're looking for

• Proven experience in marketing communications
• Excellent organisational and planning skills
• Financial acumen 
• Highly numerate, with exceptional analytical skills
• Excellent written and verbal communications skills, with the ability to effectively communicate at all levels within an organisation
