Telephone Fundraiser

Job Description

Our client has a fantastic opportunity for a Telephone Fundraiser to join their company. This is a temporary position with Full-time and part time hours available.

The role is working from home, and the pay rate is £12ph (£12.64 London weighting) plus the opportunity to earn bonus each week. Flexible hours to suit you, 21 - 35 hours per week (minimum requirement 21 hours per week). The shifts are Mon-Friday, 12:30-4:00pm, 4:30pm-8:00pm or 12:30 pm- 8:00 pm. If working a split shift pattern you must do at least the same amount of evenings to afternoons.

Duties:

• Engage with a range of charities and non-profits over the phone.
• Have engaging conversations with people about potentially serious subjects.
• Make a strong fundraising ask on a charity's behalf.
• Speak with existing supporters who have previously donated or shown an interest in supporting the charity's work.
• This role is not ‘cold calling’. There are no monotone calling scripts and we offer a supportive and friendly work environment.

Requirements:

• Proven success in previous telephone or fundraising roles.
• Ability to be productive, self-motivated, and self-managing.
• Strong interpersonal skills transferable to telephone conversations.
• Clear and articulate speaking voice.
• IT skills geared toward using a dialling out calling platform.
• Experience in making financial ask and the ability to both follow a structure (call guide) and use initiative to personalise calls.
• Ability to perform to a target-based working environment.

MUST HAVE:

• Laptop or PC running on MAC or Windows 10 or above.
• Ability to run an Ethernet cable from workstation to internet router as home WIFI is rarely strong enough to support desired sound quality.

Please apply by uploading your CV (with full employment history and contact details of at least two referees - one of whom should be your current or most recent employer) to [email protected].

To be eligible to apply for this role, you must also have the legal right to work in the UK.
