Our second year has seen increased success in fundraising, resulting in the opening and development of some exciting projects with our beneficiaries. In addition, the take-up of our diverse training programme is growing. Nevertheless, funding related to our specialist area of work is competitive, and all our funding streams, and our CIC as a whole would benefit from strong marketing.

For this reason, we are looking for candidates with experience working in the voluntary sector and good marketing knowledge and skills.
