Face-to-Face Fundraiser
South Shields, Tyne and Wear (Field-Based)

About Us

We are Dove House Hospice, a local hospice that have been providing end-of-life care for people in Hull and East Yorkshire for over 40 years.

Dedicated to our patients and their families, our unique person-centred care focuses on the needs of the person we are caring for, not just their illness, and our staff are committed to making staying at Dove House a home from home experience.

In 1996, we created Your Charity Lottery (YCL) as a way to help us generate income. Since then, the brand has operated as part of our fundraising efforts, creating over £6 Million of income. In addition to a weekly lottery, there are also raffles, scratch cards, gift vouchers and even wedding favours, and over 20,000 players.

We are now looking for a Face-to-Face Fundraiser to join our team on a permanent, part-time basis, working 15 – 24 hours per week.

The Benefits

- Salary of £11.44 per hour
- 22 days’ annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata), plus 2 days for the Christmas division shut down
- Group Personal Pension scheme
- Enhanced Maternity, Paternity, Adoption and Shared Parental Leave pay
- Death in service insurance cover of 3 x annual salary
- Up to 6 months’ full occupational sick pay (pro rata)
- Free onsite parking at Dove House Hospice, Chamberlain Road
- Access to Health Services Discounts
- Access to a Christmas savings club

This is an excellent opportunity for an enthusiastic individual with experience in a sales or promotional role to join our committed organisation.

You’ll have the chance to make a meaningful difference, directly contributing to raising awareness and funds that will ensure our patients can receive the crucial care and comfort they need during challenging times.

So, if you're passionate about making a positive impact in your community and helping us to continue our vital work, then apply today!
