We are looking for a bold, ambitious, and dynamic Director of Fundraising and Communications to lead our first ever Fundraising and Communications team as we celebrate our 40th year.
2025 will also see the Charity launch a new brand, and new name as we change from Rape and Sexual Abuse Support Centre (RASASC) to Rape Crisis South London (RCSL).
Working closely with the CEO, and as part of a newly formed Senior Leadership Team, you will play a crucial role in creating and implementing our ambitious plans.
You will lead on creating a strong fundraising culture across the organisation and build a fundraising mindset into our marketing and communications.
You will lead the development and implementation of a new fundraising strategy, including working with teams across the organisation to build a funding pipeline that not only sustains our current services in the longer term but increases income in line with our strategy for growth.
This will include diversifying our income through generating a mix of funds from trusts and foundations, corporate partners, individual giving and community fundraising.
You will also support the development and delivery of our Communications Strategy.
This is a career-defining role, working with a wonderful and passionate team.
If you share our ambition and our values, we will give you the resources and support you need to succeed.
You'll have a programme of activity to enthuse and engage the support we need to fulfil our mission of providing specialised counselling, support and independent advocacy for women who have experienced rape or sexual violence.
The successful applicant will be able to demonstrate their support for Rape Crisis South London's values and commitment to feminist principles.
The position is offered as permanent, full-time opportunity, with three days in the office.
The post is open to female applicants only as being female is deemed to be a genuine occupational requirement under Schedule 9, Paragraph 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
