Role

ACCORD Hospice provides specialist palliative and end-of-life care to people living with life-limiting illnesses across Renfrewshire and parts of East Renfrewshire. Supporting patients and families both within the hospice and in the community, ACCORD is dedicated to ensuring people receive compassionate, high-quality care when they need it most. The hospice relies heavily on the generosity of supporters, volunteers, businesses, and the wider community to continue delivering its vital services free of charge.

ACCORD Hospice is now seeking an experienced and motivated Senior Fundraiser to join its Fundraising and Communications team. This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in driving income growth, developing meaningful supporter relationships, and increasing awareness of the hospice across the local community.

The successful candidate will support the delivery of fundraising activity across community, corporate, events, and general fundraising streams, helping to maximise income from both existing and new supporters. The role will involve developing and managing relationships with local businesses, organisations, community groups, and volunteers, while identifying innovative opportunities to grow fundraising income and supporter engagement.

A key aspect of the role will include managing the hospice’s portfolio of fundraising events and campaigns, securing long-term corporate partnerships, including Charity of the Year relationships, and supporting stewardship activity to ensure supporters receive an excellent experience. You will also play an important role in promoting the work of ACCORD Hospice through presentations, networking opportunities, community engagement activity, and digital communications.

Working closely with the Fundraising & Communications Manager, you will help lead and support a collaborative fundraising culture across the organisation. The role also includes line management responsibility for the Fundraising Administrator and Community Fundraiser, ensuring effective supporter stewardship, income processing, and event support are delivered to a high standard.

The successful candidate will have demonstrable experience across a broad range of fundraising disciplines, including Corporate Fundraising, Legacies, Events, and General Fundraising, alongside a proven track record of delivering income growth within the voluntary sector. You will be an excellent communicator with strong organisational and relationship management skills, capable of managing multiple priorities while inspiring supporters, colleagues, and volunteers alike.

This is a rewarding opportunity for an ambitious and proactive fundraising professional who is passionate about building community relationships and making a meaningful difference to the lives of patients and families supported by ACCORD Hospice.
