Membership Fundraising Area Manager
Posted 7 days 10 hours ago by NFP PEOPLE
During support visits, leading by example, you'll ensure Fundraisers uphold the charity's standards, code of conduct, values and brand through their communication and display. You'll do at least one monthly recruiting shift with each team member, providing valuable feedback to Fundraisers and follow up individual action plans for all team members. Ultimately, you'll lead a culture of high standards, positive actions, and achievement of targets.
You'll work closely with your line manager and report on progress with performance and how you're leading your team. You'll also work with your team of peers to support the wider regional and national team to share opportunities, resources, skills, knowledge, and actions.
Giving and receiving feedback regularly is paramount in the Area Manager role. It enables you to manage performance consistently across your team and creates successful working relationships.
Effective team support requires effective time management and organisation to give the appropriate support to everyone in the team. The nature of the work means there is often a last-minute need to amend plans and respond to changing circumstances. Working with flexibility and being able to react quickly to change, and to support others through change, is a necessity.
The role will build effective, collaborative working relationships with key stakeholders, including weekly reporting to your line manager and wider F2F Area Manager peers, the Membership Venues Team, Employee Recruitment Advisors, Employee Relations Advisors and local RSPB nature reserve staff.
Being responsible for recruiting and delivering best practice training to new Membership Fundraisers, you will recruit, select and induct new team members and build their capabilities through initiating buddy shifts and delivering support visits, using leadership models such as root cause analysis, setting SMART work objectives and implementing Situational Leadership to build capabilities.
Area Managers are expected to be role models and consistently demonstrate and uphold standards and values-led behaviours.
As part of this role, you will be expected to travel to different locations in the central belt of Scotland and on occasions more widely throughout the surrounding areas in order to support your team, for which a company van will be provided, and associated expenses covered. Please note that, as a result, a full driving licence that is valid in the UK is a requirement for this position.
