CTLA is an award-winning transport charity. We help change the lives of older and vulnerable members of our local community, every day of the week, by helping them get out and about and lead a socially active and integrated lifestyle. When transport can be a real barrier, our services help to prevent them becoming lonely and isolated. It is a challenge that our team of drivers and passenger assistants relish and excel at.
We are looking for a passionate, experienced, Fundraising and Marketing Manager to join our Senior Management Team. The successful candidate will devise and implement a fundraising strategy, which will include corporate sponsorships, public donors and legacy giving whilst building partnerships with major funding bodies. The successful applicant will be the face of CTLA within the community, raising awareness, patronage and financial support, whilst implementing and running marketing campaigns and appeals to support CTLA’s fundraising activities.
CTLA is sustainable only with support from the public, local authorities and other grant funders, so we are looking to recruit a Fundraising and Marketing Manager as soon as possible, as this role is of vital importance to the Charity. If you think you have the passion and drive to fulfil this vital role, please get in touch. E-mail with a CV to our HR Manager at Jo.Wood@ctla.org.uk.
