Grants Officer

FareShare South West's (FSSW) fundraising need and strategy has developed and diversified rapidly in line with major growth since 2017. As a charity we annually raise over £1m in fundraised income from trusts and foundations, corporate donations, individual donors, major donors, community fundraising and events. The Grants Officer (GO) will work with the Grants Manager (GM) to secure income from trusts and foundations.

The GO is responsible for securing income for capital and revenue-based projects, from both existing and new funders. They will lead on many smaller funding applications to grant-making trusts and foundations and will be responsible for developing relationships, prospecting for new opportunities and reporting back to funders. They will support the GM on larger funding applications to achieve team targets.
