About The Role

We are the UK member of the international A Rocha federation of Christian conservation charities, with sister organisations in 24 countries. A Rocha UK has a staff of 25 and many volunteers.

In doing so, they will work closely with other staff, especially the CEO, programme staff, and other members of the fundraising team. They will also manage occasional legacies and, as capacity allows, develop a proactive legacy promotion programme. The successful candidate will have previous experience securing funds from trusts, as well as excellent writing skills, an interest in the environment and an active Christian faith. The post currently reports to the CEO.
