Interim & Part-Time Head / Director of Fundraising

Bring a senior fundraising leader into your charity for an agreed period or allocation of days. This is active leadership and management, not just advice from the sidelines.

When this helps

  • You need planned maternity or absence cover.
  • You are between managers and want continuity while recruiting.
  • You need senior leadership a few days a week to keep costs proportionate.

How I work with you

We define the leadership remit, reporting arrangements and allocation before I start. I work with the team, CEO and trustees to keep priorities clear, support staff and maintain oversight of income and performance.

Options & typical fees

Commission the support you need. We agree the scope, deliverables and fee before work begins.

Interim and part-time fundraising leadership

£400–£550 per day

Senior cover tailored to the responsibilities you need filled.

  • Team leadership, support and prioritisation
  • Income oversight, budgets and forecasting
  • CEO and trustee reporting
  • Coordination across the charity and a clear handover

Timescale & next steps

A planned fixed-term engagement or regular part-time allocation, with handover built in.

Tell me what you need, your timetable and any budget you are working within. I’ll confirm availability and propose a clear scope and fee.

We agree appropriate contractual and working arrangements for the role. This offer focuses on planned cover and continuity, not turnaround work.
