The role can be based at any of our Marie Curie regional offices or hospices in Scotland, dependant on the successful applicant's location with flexibility for home working.

Marie Curie has ambitious plans to become the UK's leader in the end of life experience. We want to ensure that everyone has the appropriate support at the end of their lives, and fundraising plays a critical role in achieving this.

Legacies are our single most important growth opportunity in fundraising over the next five years. The legacy and in memory giving programme will play a key role in enabling Marie Curie to deliver its organisational strategy of ensuring that everyone affected by dying, death and bereavement has the best possible experience.

The Legacy and In Memory Giving team is responsible for raising awareness about gifts in Wills and ways to give in memory of a loved one, both externally to supporters and members of the public, and internally to staff and volunteers.

What we are looking for:

Working in conjunction with the wider team, you will help to increase the number of supporters who include a gift in their Will or give a gift in memory of a loved one to Marie Curie by providing engaging and inspiring stewardship.

Reporting to the Legacy & In Memory Development Manager, you will work towards targets to grow legacy support, and be responsible for planning and organising a series of legacy and in memory events and engagements across the region for supporters.

As Legacy and In Memory Lead you will be the first point of contact and an expert on legacy and in memory giving for all regionally based Caring Services, Volunteering and Fundraising staff. You will have the ability to build relationships with staff and volunteers to ensure they understand the importance of legacy and in memory income to the charity and to equip and motivate them to promote this type of giving regularly, and with confidence.

Educated to degree level, or equivalent, you will be a confident communicator and influencer with strong presentation skills and the ability to build and develop strong relationships at all levels. This, together with excellent IT, marketing and admin skills will be key.

Innovation and creativity are also essential - you should be highly organised, have experience in maintaining admin processes and financial records, whilst prioritising and coordinating multiple projects and delivering to deadlines. You should also have proven achievement of meeting financial targets and managing events. A willingness to work occasional anti-social hours and access to a vehicle, insured for business use, is essential.

If this sounds like you, we want to hear from you!

What's in it for you:

- Continued access to NHS Pension Scheme (subject to eligibility)

- Marie Curie Group Personal Pension Scheme

- Season ticket loan

- Loan schemes for bikes; computers and satellite navigation systems

- Continuous development

- Industry leading training programmes

Our Learning and Development Team is on an exciting new journey as it evolves into the Learning and Organisational Development (L&OD) Team. We are recruiting for an L&OD Manager who will help support and lead this change, playing a central role in shaping the new L&OD agenda here at CHAS.

Key Responsibilities

Reporting to the Head of L&OD, you will have the opportunity to manage colleagues in the department which currently consists of a Learning and Development Coordinator and Learning and Development Administrator. You will also be responsible for the design and delivery of learning across CHAS as well as L&OD project management.

About You

You will be able to work collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation, including managers and senior leaders, and have a strong business partnering approach in your interactions with key stakeholders.

We are looking for a creative individual with fantastic people skills who will be able to ensure that our employees get the learning experiences they need, help the organisation meet its strategic objectives and support their new team to evolve into a high performing L&OD function.

About CHAS

At CHAS, staff and volunteers work together as one team, focused on the common goal of reaching every family in Scotland who needs our support. We have a 3:1 ratio of volunteers to staff members in CHAS. All CHAS staff will at some point work with or alongside volunteers and will be expected to support volunteers.

Our ambition is to reach every family in Scotland who is living with the heart-breaking prognosis that their child is dying, and offer them our care and support to empower them to make the most of the short time they have together. As a Learning and Organisational Development Manager, you will be instrumental in achieving this vision.

Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) was launched in May 2013 from Perth Airport to provide air ambulance capability in order to complement statutory resources across Scotland, delivering emergency relief of serious sickness and injury, as well as assisting in the speed of recovery time in critical medical emergencies. In April 2020, SCAA launched its second air ambulance which is based at Aberdeen Airport. Over the last eight years, SCAA has responded to over 3,000 callouts from its bases across Scotland. SCAA aim to provide a valued, sustainable, and leading national air ambulance service that is integral to emergency services in Scotland. On average, the team responds to two time-critical emergency call outs every single day.

This is an incredibly exciting time to join the team at SCAA. They are growing and looking to increase their presence across the entirety of Scotland. In addition to this exciting period of growth, SCAA are a national charity and receive no statutory government funding, so rely 100% on donations from the public to fuel their life-saving flights. Due to this, SCAA are now looking for three new Community Fundraising Officers to join the team. The three locations to be covered are:

• Glasgow based (this will also cover Stirling and Falkirk so could be based there)

• Perth, Dundee and Angus

• Argyll and Bute and surrounding areas.

The Community Fundraising Officer will work as part of the growing fundraising team and will work to identify, develop and analyse opportunities to maximise local fundraising income to meet or exceed income targets. You will be out and about in the community, working to develop and build relationships. You will work to organise and deliver successful fundraising events within your area. As a whole, you will work closely with volunteers, community groups, individuals and schools in order to increase brand awareness, maximise engagement, and overall drive fundraising in the region.

Whether you are an experienced fundraiser or you are looking to begin your career in the third sector, this role will be suitable for you. We are ideally looking for someone with a background in fundraising, with a knowledge of the current fundraising landscape. However, SCAA are willing to provide support, to mentor and grow candidates who are at the beginning of their career or have the right transferable skills. You may be someone with a background in sales or income generation with a passion for the sector. You may be someone who has just finished higher education (or equivalent) and has the drive and passion to succeed.
