We're looking for an experienced Fundraising and Development Manager to take our fundraising to the next level.

This is an exciting opportunity for a proactive and strategic fundraiser with a proven track record in securing grants, developing meaningful corporate partnerships, and managing the funding pipeline from research to stewardship. We’re looking for a confident self-starter who excels at building strong relationships with donors, partners, and sector peers while providing outstanding support to our members. As the sole fundraising expert in a small, close-knit team, you’ll play a pivotal role in expanding NTUK’s income and supporting the development of the charity—putting you in a unique position to make a real impact.

If this sounds like you, and you want to help secure the future of the UK’s National Trails, we’d love to hear from you. We welcome applications from all backgrounds, experiences, and sections of the community.

Please read the full role responsibilities document. If it sounds like a role that’s right for you, please send us your CV and either a two page cover letter or a four min video, explaining your relevant experience and why you are the best fit for the role. Applications should be sent to info@nationaltrails.uk by midnight on 22nd May.

Interviews will be held online on 29th May; if needed, second round interviews will be held the following week, also online.

Salary: £38,000 per annum, two year full time contract.
