The role
St Richard’s Hospice is at the heart of the Worcestershire community, providing specialist care and support to people with illnesses which cannot be cured and support for the people who are important to them.
We’re looking for an enthusiastic, organised and creative Events Fundraiser to join our Income Generation Team on a 12 month maternity-cover basis. This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys bringing people together, delivering memorable events and building strong relationships with supporters.
From developing event plans and coordinating suppliers, venues and volunteers, to monitoring budgets and evaluating event performance, you’ll oversee events from initial planning through to post-event stewardship.
You’ll also work closely with colleagues across the Income Generation Team, Digital Marketing & Communications and the wider hospice to ensure our supporters receive an excellent experience at every stage.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
