About the Role
Leading Arts and cultural organisation needs a Fundraising Administrator for a varied temp role supporting the Major Gifts team. This is a fascinating role requiring first-class administration skills, the ability to draft letters and emails with crystal clear business English, and excellent interpersonal skills. You will have plenty of contact with Major Donors so will need to be able to communicate with Senior Stakeholders at all levels. If you have fundraising Administration experience, that would be useful and if you have used Raiser’s Edge or other database experience that would be preferred.
