BACKGROUND
DEBRA Ireland is the national charity uniting for change for those living with “Butterfly Skin” (Epidermolysis Bullosa). Through emotional and practical support, funding research, and campaigning for vital policy changes, DEBRA makes a tangible difference in the lives of individuals and families impacted by this painful, life-limiting condition.
2024 was a landmark year for Debra, thanks to the incredible success of the “Run to 40” campaign featuring Emma Fogarty and Colin Farrell. Raising over €900,000, this initiative generated significant awareness, strengthened donor relationships, and built a substantial new donor database to develop further. This success aligns with Debra’s bold ambitions to grow the IG program and drive fundraising impact, which supports pioneering research and vital services for those affected by EB.
THE ROLE
Are you an experienced professional with a passion for individual giving and a drive to make a meaningful impact?
As the Individual Giving Assistant Manager, you will play a pivotal role in delivering DEBRA’s Individual Giving (IG) programme, which accounts for 50% of the organisation’s income. Reporting to the Head of Individual Giving, you’ll manage diverse aspects of the IG programme, including direct mail campaigns, donor retention, tax-back initiatives, and legacy fundraising.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Managing the production and execution of multi-channel direct marketing campaigns.
- Leading DEBRA’s tax-back programme to maximise donations.
- Developing and implementing donor retention strategies to enhance engagement and income.
- Using data analysis to inform campaign strategies, monitor performance, and optimise results.
- Supporting the growth of DEBRA’s legacy income stream.
To succeed, you’ll bring proven experience in individual giving or direct marketing, strong project management and data analysis skills, and a flair for building relationships with donors and stakeholders.
