This is a strategic, outward-facing leadership role for a relational and driven professional who thrives on building meaningful relationships and developing long-term partnerships. Whether your background is in fundraising, business development, sales or account management, you will be energised by connecting with people, communicating vision with authenticity and inspiring others to invest in a cause that matters.

As Stand by Me's chief ambassador and lead fundraiser in Northern Ireland, you will build, deepen and grow relationships with supporters while identifying new opportunities for partnership and income generation. Working with churches, major donors, businesses and trusts, you will create long-term connections that translate into lasting impact for vulnerable children and their communities.

If you are a natural networker, an excellent communicator and motivated by seeing people and partnerships thrive, we'd love to hear from you.

The impact of your work will extend far beyond income raised. Through the relationships and partnerships you develop, children and families around the world will experience hope, opportunity and lasting change.

Because many of the relationships and partnerships developed through this role will be with churches, this post carries an Occupational Requirement under Schedule 9 of the Equality Act 2010. The successful candidate must be a practising Christian, able to confidently affirm and represent Stand by Me's Christian ethos.
