About the role
As our Events Fundraising Assistant, you’ll play a hands‑on, delivery‑focused role across a portfolio of fundraising events from mid‑August to mid‑December 2026. Working closely with the events team, you’ll pick up a wide range of coordination tasks, from managing guest lists and dietary requirements to supporting brochure production, silent auction delivery and post‑event income tracking. No two days will look the same, and your contribution will have a direct impact on the success of events that fund our mission to eliminate orphanages and ensure every child grows up in a safe, loving family.
About you
We’re looking for an Events Fundraising Assistant who is organised, detail‑oriented and a confident written communicator, comfortable holding multiple deadlines across several events at once. You’ll bring a warm, professional manner to every interaction with guests, donors and suppliers, and you’ll have solid Microsoft Office skills, particularly Word, Excel and PowerPoint. Experience supporting event delivery, working with databases, and drafting copy for donor‑facing materials are all important. Experience with auction platforms such as Bid Aid, Canva, monday.com or a background in charity fundraising would all be a bonus, though none are essential. Most importantly, you’ll care about our mission and you’ll understand that every well‑run event, every followed‑up payment, and every beautifully printed place card helps more children find their way Back to Family.
