What we’re looking for:

• A confident communicator with a flair for relationship-building.
• Organised, proactive, and comfortable working independently.
• Creative and enthusiastic, with a passion for community impact.
• Experience in fundraising, sales, or events is a bonus—but attitude and drive are key.
• Willingness to travel across the region and attend events.
• A full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle.

What’s in it for you?

• Remote-first with access to serviced offices in Birmingham and Nottingham.
• Supportive, collaborative team culture with autonomy and flexibility.
