Fundraising Manager

Fundraising Manager
African Vision Malawi is looking for
a new Fundraising Manager.
Can you help maximize the
generation of funds for the charity to allow us to sustain and develop further our support to orphans and vulnerable people in Malawi?

Ideally we are looking for this
position to be filled on a voluntary
basis so that we can focus all our
donations on our projects. However
we will consider employing the right
person on a commission basis.
If you have excellent fundraising
experience, are interested in the
work of the charity and willing to go
out to Malawi every couple of years
to see the actual work as it happens,
we would be delighted to hear from
you.
This is an interesting and varied role
working to support our fundraising
activities at all levels. The main
duties include but are not limited
to:
- Providing advice on our fundraising
strategy and its impact on project
design and development.
- Generate increased income from
existing sources
- Detailed research of potential
funding opportunities through
corporate institutions.
- Supporting the Chief Executive and
Chairman in making funding
approaches to corporate institutions.
- Detailed research of grant and
contract funding opportunities.
- Drafting of high quality grant
funding bids and tenders.
- Liaising with and providing support
to the Chief Executive, Chairman and
Trustees on all fundraising issues..
- General administrative duties
including maintaining records of
fundraising activities.
- Other duties that may be assigned
from time to time by the Chief
Executive or Chairman.
We need your help to secure
additional funding to enable us to
continue our work as a provider of
support to orphans and vulnerable
people in Malawi. Our 3 year
strategy requires us to significantly
ramp up our fundraising if we are to
achieve our goals and we need your
help to achieve this.
If you believe you have the skills
and experience to help us in this
challenge, and you are interested in
applying for this post, please send
an email with your CV to
