About this role
This is an exciting time to be joining Hills Road Sixth Form College and working alongside the Development Director as we establish fundraising for the College.
Since the Development Director joined the College in February 2025, significant groundwork has been undertaken to establish firm foundations for fundraising. The new Development Coordinator is now needed to provide a supportive role as we grow fundraising across a range of income streams.
The Development Coordinator position will be varied, ranging from managing our database and reporting to funders, to creating content for our alumni website. The Development Coordinator will also take responsibility for organising reunion events for alumni.
This is a great opportunity for someone with a can-do approach and existing administrative and/or events experience to begin a career in fundraising, or for someone already working in fundraising to broaden their experience through supporting a range of income streams.
If your knowledge, skills and experience align with our ambitions, we want to hear from you.
To apply, please complete Parts 1 and 2 of the application form. When completing Part 1, you will be required to upload your CV and a Supporting Statement of Application. Once you have submitted Part 1, please proceed to Part 2 (Equality and Diversity Monitoring).
