Are you an experienced Area/Regional Sales or Fundraising Manager – or a local field sales manager ready to take the next step?

Are you looking for something rewarding – and different? Would you like to build and develop geographically dispersed recruiting teams whose purpose is to gain new memberships and generate critical revenue to drive the work of local Wildlife Trust charities?

South West Wildlife Fundraising Limited (SWWFL) is seeking an outstanding direct sales and/or fundraising manager, with the people management experience, drive and motivational skills to lead face-to-face (F2F) membership recruitment teams across Worcestershire and Shropshire Wildlife Trusts.

SWWFL is a successful, growing and wholly Wildlife Trust-owned organisation, now working with 12 Wildlife Trusts across England and Wales. We deliver specialist face-to-face membership recruitment for our Trusts at pre-arranged venues such as retail stores, garden centres, local shows and events. The Membership Sales Manager (MSM), working with the central operations team in Exeter and with Worcestershire and Shropshire Wildlife Trust colleagues, maximises opportunities by building teams, developing marketing presence, upskilling membership recruiters and optimising quality local venues/events. 

The successful appointee will be confident leading from the front to improve the sales skills and fundraising performance of Membership Recruiters through regular training and field coaching, supported by a Sales Team Manager. This is a key strategic leadership role for the SWWFL management team, working in partnership with Wildlife Trust managers, to deliver continuous improvement. If you have a proven track record of managing remote teams to deliver targets and of delivering sales/fundraising value this rewarding role could be for you!

This role will be part-time, three days (22.5hrs) per week, to include some weekend working as these are key to success. The postholder will be home-based to cover our existing team and likely to be in Worcestershire or Shropshire or near counties. The benefits include strong commission plan, flexible working, good annual leave, pension based on length of service, a laptop and phone. Beyond that, the satisfaction of making a real difference to our environment and working for a progressive, friendly, ethical company.
