- Be a transformational leader that provides clear and actionable leadership to your department and in the wider organisation. Based on your skillset we will define your final portfolio together upfront, but teams ideally include NBD, Communications and PR and potentially Grants or MERL. Total team size will be roughly 6-20 FTE (Full Time Equivalent).
- Build and maintain a proposal development process and team that delivers the right amount of high quality proposals. Build effective partnerships with other teams across the organisation to ensure proposals are of high quality, relevant and realistically budgeted.
- Ensure effective management, analysis and segmentation of our donor pipeline.
- Strategically budget and decide on staffing and fund allocation to optimise impact of efforts.
- Be a key member of the C-suite of Triggerise, which requires strategic thinking, hands-on implementation and seamless partnerships across the executive team and the organisation.
- Develop strategies to cultivate, create and raise new fundraising initiatives and broaden the awareness about Triggerise with your target audience.
