OVERVIEW

We are going into year 7 at Public Outreach Canada and we’re having another growth spurt. Due to the hard work and dedication to values of all Public Outreach staff we have arrived at a place where our clients are demanding to have a greater opportunity to work with us. This translates into more opportunities for people to grow and develop in the company.

We have identified 6 major areas within Ontario that could both succeed extremely well and have easy access to current support systems. This allows future Fundraising Managers to get on the job experience and quality training from the current leaders of the company.

This is a wonderful opportunity for those whom are organized and self-directed, and have successfully demonstrated their ability to manage fundraising response, volume, and admin efficiency. As a manager the ideal candidates should have an intuitive understanding of staff morale and other aspects of staff management, as well as recruiting, project planning and project management, new client start-up, and other skills required for the successful running of a Fundraising office.


DUTIES
- Overseeing an appropriate recruitment, hiring, training and evaluation program to ensure that standards are achieved and contracts completed within an agreed upon timeline.
- Overseeing staff scheduling, turf management and ensuring that all staff are actively fundraising to the levels spelled-out in their job descriptions.
- Coordinating the efforts of the supervisors, trainers and administrative staff – through regular meetings and honest, consistent communication – to best service both the clients, and the donors.
- Maintain a personal level of fundraising that is at least 40% of overall time worked on a weekly basis.
- Fostering an environment of honesty, respect, and effectiveness (while not forgetting to have fun!)
- Ensuring that all donations are accurate, complete, confidential and delivered to the client in the appropriate manner.
- Obtaining permits and licenses where necessary from the respective municipal authorities and ensuring good working relations within the community.
- This is an equal opportunity employment offer and we encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. The ideal candidate should:

o Be flexible, able to easily adapt to new systems and procedures
o Have discernment and the ability to prioritize
o Be highly energetic and flexible with the ability to thrive in challenging situations.
o Be results-driven with the ability to motivate others.
o Have good oral communication and facilitation skills.
o Have experience recruiting, training and managing staff
