About the team… 

Delivering a great supporter experience is a fundamental part of how we fundraise at the British Red Cross and is embedded in our strategy. It’s not a buzz word. While every fundraiser is responsible for the experience or our supporters, the Supporter Experience Team is the hub which provides the vision for what a British Red Cross experience should feel like for our supporters and the tools and support that teams need to deliver it. 

We also deliver supporter experience improvement projects and measure the impact that our work is having on our colleagues and our supporters. We bring the supporters voice in the organisation, genuinely listen and learn from them and celebrate the role that they play in helping the British Red Cross to be there for people in crisis. 

We’re a team that is driven by doing good work, by learning all the time and by enjoying what we do. We collectively plan and set our direction and goals together, so you’ll be part of shaping the present and the future. We’re really open to new perspectives and different approaches, so you’ll have the chance to make an impact on how we work while you’re here. While you’ll always have autonomy over your projects, you’ll also always have support when you need it and we always prioritise our team’s wellbeing overall.
