You will be working on a range of fantastic events such as our annual Open Gardens and Christmas on the Coast, individual and team challenge events, such as Marathons, Cycle rides and treks - so we are looking for someone with bags of energy and enthusiasm.
You will demonstrate your creative event planning ability by bringing forward your own ideas
for new events, and ways in which existing events can be finessed. You will have a strong
understanding of donor stewarding, with a vision for helping our supporters to raise money
whether through challenge or community events.
You will have proven experience of successful event management ideally within a
fundraising environment, but not necessarily in your current paid role.
You will live the Hospice values: Respect, Inclusive, Kind and Innovative in all aspects of
your work. You will be comfortable managing a number of concurrent events and managing
your workload.
As some fundraising events are in the evenings or at the weekend your working week may
well vary to accommodate these.
Please note that a full driving licence will be required to allow for travel to events and
locations across Hastings and Rother.
At St Michael’s Hospice we offer a friendly, team orientated work environment – a good
pension scheme with the option to continue any existing NHS pension scheme
membership, an Employee Assistance Programme, Benenden Healthcare, up to 29 days
annual leave plus bank holidays, subsidised employee meals and free refreshments, free
parking, supportive supervision and a proactive Education Department to support with your
development. Hospice employees also qualify for a Blue Light Card with access to a huge
array of discounts.
To apply for this position, please complete an application form. Please note CVs will not be
accepted, unless candidates are unable to complete the application form due to a
disability, in which case please contact the HR team.
Please note if a vacancy is part time the salary will be pro rata.
