Role

Age Scotland is the national charity for older people. 

Our vision is that no one in Scotland faces the challenges of older age alone.

We provide older people, their families and carers with high quality information and advice services and we tackle loneliness through our dedicated friendship programmes.

We campaign and influence on the issues older people tell us they care about. We support and fund hundreds of older people’s groups and community initiatives across the country and deliver workshops to improve people’s quality of life.

We involve and empower people affected by dementia and host national forums for older people from ethnic minorities and the LGBTQ+ community to help address the inequalities they face.

We're looking for a creative and results-driven Individual Giving Fundraiser to join our Fundraising and Marketing team.

In this exciting role, you'll develop and deliver inspiring fundraising campaigns that attract new supporters and lottery players while strengthening relationships with existing donors. Using compelling storytelling, multi-channel marketing, and data-driven insight, you'll grow income, deepen supporter engagement, maximise long-term donor value, and continuously improve campaign performance to achieve ambitious fundraising targets.

Working collaboratively with colleagues and supporters, you'll live our values of empowering, inspiring, inclusive and integrity, building trusted relationships that connect people to the impact of their support. Through your work, you'll play a vital role in growing sustainable income, raising Age Scotland's profile, and helping more older people across Scotland live well and age well.

If you're a creative fundraiser with a passion for building supporter relationships and delivering successful fundraising campaigns, we'd love to hear from you!

The post will be Scotland-based, with a blend of office (Edinburgh-based) and home working. As a hybrid role the intention is that office-based and external facing work will constitute 40% of working time over each month. Age Scotland is a flexible employer, and flexible work patterns are available. 

In return for your hard work, enthusiasm and commitment to our values you’ll receive a generous benefits package:

• Generous holiday allowance of 39 days (FTE) 
• A range of learning and development opportunities
• Company sick pay
• Healthcare benefit through BHSF
• Discounted gym membership
• Discounts from major retailers
• Contributory pension scheme with employer contributions of 9%
• A comprehensive package of support though our Employee Assistance Programme
• Group life cover up to three times your annual salary
• Cycle to work scheme
• Paid carers leave and dependents’ support
• Enhanced family life policies.
