About the Role:
Are you passionate about connecting people with nature and inspiring long-term support for wildlife? We’re looking for a dedicated and creative Individual Giving Officer to drive Cornwall Wildlife Trust’s fundraising efforts and support our vision for a Cornwall where nature thrives.
In this varied and rewarding role, you’ll work closely with the Public Fundraising Manager to lead on the development, management, and delivery of key Individual Giving programmes - including Appeals, Legacy, and In-Memory Giving - to grow income and deepen supporter engagement. You’ll also support the delivery of Membership and High Value Giving activity, helping to strengthen our supporter base and foster lasting relationships. In addition, you’ll oversee our Trading operations and contribute to the success of the wider Public Fundraising and Fundraising & Communications teams.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who is organised, imaginative, and eager to turn a love of wildlife into real, lasting impact for Cornwall’s environment. If that sounds like you, we’d love to hear from you.
While direct fundraising experience is desirable, we welcome candidates with strong marketing expertise who can translate storytelling, audience engagement, and relationship-building into meaningful donor support.
