Job description
Passionate about Legacy fundraising? Are you a great communicator? Can you help us shape our Legacy and In Mem giving programme?
Dogs Trust has exciting plans to grow its reach and impact over the next ten years with the launch of our new organisational strategy. In fact, we’ve been helping dogs for over 130 years. In that time, we’ve found forever homes for hundreds of thousands of our faithful friends, dramatically reduced numbers being put to sleep, and helped to all but eliminate strays from the UK’s streets. We've also established universal microchipping, campaigned tirelessly on important issues such as puppy smuggling and grown influence and impact on the international stage. But we know there’s so much more to do. There are still millions of dogs - and people who love dogs - around the world who need support.
The growth of legacy giving will play a key role in realising our ambitions and we are now looking for a Legacy Campaign Manager to help the Legacy Programme manager deliver our Legacy programme and build effective relationships with all relevant audiences, to optimise legacy and in memoriam income for Dogs Trust, as well as raising awareness of the importance of Legacy giving for our charity, both internally and externally.
In this key role you will account manage external creative agencies, media buyers and suppliers in order to deliver multiple legacy, in memoriam and Canine Care Card campaigns. The Legacy Campaign Manager will be managing significant budgets and setting up monitoring and evaluation for all projects to report on key learnings, including recommendations for future activity. While at the same time working closely with internal stakeholders to ensure that all communications provide supporters with the best possible experience of Dogs Trust.
With an experience of Legacy and/or In memoriam marketing you will have excellent communication skills and good knowledge of Data Protection and GDPR. With proven ability to analyse results of campaigns, understand KPI’s and reports you will have considerable experience of working with data and databases.
In return for all of this, we have a comprehensive benefits package, which includes excellent annual leave, Perkbox and pension allowances, and you will join a team of highly professional and driven colleagues in a brilliant upbeat and collaborative environment, all with a genuine passion for dog welfare.
