About the Role
Ready for a role that’s rewarding, challenging, and never dull? Are you passionate about nature and confident in striking up conversations with strangers to inspire them to take action? As an RSPB Fundraiser in West Sussex, you will be a visible, passionate ambassador for nature, often outdoors and on your feet. Your daily activities will include using a company van (with fuel and parking covered) to travel to venues, setting up eye-catching fundraising stands, engaging the public in meaningful conversations about conservation, and inspiring them to become RSPB members through regular direct debit support.
This role requires grit, resilience, and the ability to bounce back after tough days. It offers a dynamic, meaningful experience with full training provided—no prior wildlife knowledge needed. You will receive a salary-based role with income stability, a company van for business use, generous annual leave including bank holidays, and sabbatical opportunities.
You will also be required to attend an induction at the RSPB HQ in Sandy, Bedfordshire, with all travel and accommodation costs covered. This role is ideal for those from hospitality, retail, sales, or volunteer backgrounds who have the drive to inspire and a heart for nature.
