Events Fundraising Assistant

At Samaritans, our vision is that fewer people die by suicide. Every day, our volunteers and staff provide life-saving emotional support to people in distress, and behind that work is a culture built on compassion, inclusion, learning and human connection. We’re looking for an enthusiastic and organised Events Fundraising Assistant to join our Community & Events Fundraising team. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working with people, delivering great supporter experiences and being part of events that raise vital funds and awareness for Samaritans. As Events Fundraising Assistant you’ll support the recruitment, care and stewardship of event participants making sure their fundraising experience across a diverse programme of mass participation and challenge events with Samaritans is exceptional. You will build long lasting relationships with supporters while developing valuable experience in charity events fundraising. You’ll work closely with colleagues across External Engagement, other central teams, and our incredible network of branch volunteers.
