About the role
We're looking for a highly organised and proactive Senior Fundraising and Training Administrator to provide essential support across our Fundraising and Training teams.
This is a varied role at the heart of two important income-generating areas of Solent Mind. You'll help ensure fundraising and training activities run smoothly by leading on financial administration and reconciliation processes, maintaining accurate CRM records, supporting customers and supporters, and providing high-quality operational and administrative support.
Working closely with colleagues across both teams, you'll be responsible for:
- Managing income records and reporting
- Supporting fundraising and training activities
- Coordinating resources
- Helping to deliver an excellent experience for donors, supporters, fundraisers, and training customers
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This role would suit someone who enjoys working with systems and processes, has excellent attention to detail, and takes pride in delivering outstanding administrative support.

- Commitment to providing excellent customer service
We're looking for someone who can work independently, use their initiative, and contribute to the smooth running of both our Fundraising and Training functions. Experience of working within a charity, fundraising, training, or customer-focused environment would be an advantage.
You will ideally have experience of:
- Financial administration, income processing, or reconciliation
- CRM or database management
- Coordinating administrative processes in a busy environment
- Producing accurate reports and maintaining records
- Delivering excellent customer, supporter, or stakeholder service
- Using Microsoft Office and other digital systems confidently
