Your main tasks

• You develop an integrated, future-oriented fundraising strategy as well as convincing detailed concepts – and implement them effectively.

• In this way, you develop well-founded, convincing decision-making bases and lead projects confidently and goal-oriented to success.
• You are responsible for the further development of the CRM as a central basis for data-driven fundraising, segmentation, management, and impact measurement.

Your profile

• You have a tertiary education or a comparable qualification and bring several years of experience in fundraising.
• Proven success in developing and implementing effective fundraising strategies and campaigns distinguishes you.
• You are experienced in leading teams. You know how to promote employees and achieve goals together.
• You combine conceptual and strategic strength with a clear implementation focus.
• You are well acquainted with digital fundraising approaches. You are technically savvy and confident in handling CRM systems and databases.
• Your analytical thinking and numerical flair enable you to recognise patterns and connections – and make well-founded decisions.
• You convince through clear communication, initiative, and a high sense of responsibility.
• You enjoy working in a structured and results-oriented manner.
• Fluent German in spoken and written form as well as good French skills complete your profile.
