Fundraising Campaign Assistant
The award-winning Crisis Corporate Partnership Team has built an industry reputation for its creative approach to both marketing and partnership development.
Each year Crisis partners with the Financial Times and asks corporations not to send traditional Christmas cards to clients and contacts but instead, to make a charitable donation in return for a unique Crisis e-card. The supporter's logo then features in a double page spread in the Financial Times.
The aim of this role is to assist the Campaign Executive with the recruitment of new supporters and provide administrative support during the key recruitment and delivery phases for the 2010 campaign.
This is an excellent opportunity to gain experience in a dynamic and successful fundraising team that will stand you in good stead for future employment in a fundraising role.
Lunch and travel expenses (within greater London) are reimbursed.
