Think about this...What about a job where:

People from all kinds of backgrounds are successful and people of all ages including people shifting careers aged 40-65?

80% of the staff work 3 or 4 days per week?

Where you can potentially work your hours at times between 9am to 7pm Monday to Friday and 10am to 3pm on Saturdays?

Where most staff vary their working hours week to week to fit in around time with family, friends, pets, medical appointments etc?

Where you can compress your hours over 2 weeks to get blocks of days off?

Where you generally work within half an hour of your home, you dont have to travel in rush hour, travel time is built into your contract, and you get a travel allowance payment?

Where the company shuts down over Xmas and new year for at least a full week, so you can have a proper break?

Where work stops at the end of your shift, you cant take your work home with you and if you have been working hard and have done well you can even finish a bit early?

Where training is comprehensive but done remotely by home study and followed up with excellent ongoing support & encouragement?

Where you dont have a boss breathing down your neck, there arent lots of pointless meetings, no snide emails, and no passive-aggressive post-it notes in the office kitchen?

We think supporting a good work-life balance for our staff is business-critical. That is why we start our recruitment adverts talking about how our jobs can deliver that for you rather than boasting about how great we think we are as a company. Instead, we offer flexible local working and a culture that supports you maximising your life outside of work.

How you can make a difference

The role is fundraising as a 3rd party agent, employed by The Fundraising Partnership, representing and fundraising on behalf of Hospices nationally. Your job will be to find more people to support us with a small regular donation so that we can make a big difference to people coping with bereavement. You do this by talking to people at their homes, being friendly, explaining what what the hospice does, and asking them to become a regular supporter.

People of all backgrounds and ages can be successful at this

We are recruiting for jobs where genuinely the most successful people are in their mid-50s and 60s.

Job requirements & details

You need to be reasonably mobile and physically fit and active, but we can train you in all other parts of the job very easily. You will also be ethical and take pride in doing a job the right way. You need interpersonal skills, to be a good listener and be able to communicate effectively, but you dont need to be really persuasive or great at making speeches as it isnt what people think of as a sales job at all.

Most of all you need to have real integrity and self-motivation. We employ good people, treat them well and we trust our people to work to high standards. We have an outstanding team of fundraisers who work to the highest standards and deliver the best quality results in our industry. Its a privilege to join our team. All sorts of people from all sorts of backgrounds can be successful but you must have personal integrity and self-motivation.

It is a salaried role enhanced by commission with full-time and part-time options, travel costs payment included. You will need to have a car but will typically be working within 30 minutes of your home. Full-time OTE is between £30-40k pa. We provide full training which is delivered via a home study course and ongoing support and coaching in the field. We are an ethical employer and are committed to setting new standards and changing the face of face-to-face fundraising. That is why we are proud to already be an ISO 9001 accredited company.
