For our Individual Giving Team, we are looking for you as of 1 January 2027 or by arrangement as

Specialist Fundraising Data (80 - 100%)

What makes your job particularly exciting

• You ensure that our fundraising data in the CRM is clean and reliable, identify quality issues, and pragmatically implement improvements
• You manage interfaces with agencies and data providers, check data flows, and prepare target group and address lists for specific fundraising activities
• You create and interpret reports and analyses using Power BI and Excel, preparing well-founded decision-making bases for our fundraising activities
• For questions about CRM (Sextant), data, and reports, you are an important internal contact: you support users in their daily work and share your knowledge in short training sessions
• You manage automations in digital marketing, especially in ActiveCampaign, and work with us to examine where data- or AI-supported applications create real added value

Your experience

• You bring education or further training in data analysis, business informatics, statistics, CRM, or comparable practical experience
• You work very confidently with Excel, have experience with Power BI, and know CRM systems from practice (Sextant is an advantage); experience with marketing automation, ideally ActiveCampaign, is a plus
• You enjoy working hands-on with data. Checking, cleaning, structuring, and preparing data is just as much a part of your work as analysing and interpreting it
• You think in a structured and solution-oriented way, explain data clearly, and communicate fluently in German and English
• You want to use your data skills for a socially relevant cause. Experience in fundraising or with fundraising KPIs is welcome

What to expect from us

• A meaningful role in a globally active children’s rights organisation
• A committed team with an uncomplicated, appreciative working culture
• Flexible working time models, home office options, and central offices in Zurich
• Attractive employment conditions and modern social benefits

We promote diversity in our team and therefore welcome applications from people of diverse nationalities, ethnic and social origins, religions and beliefs, sexual orientations and identities, different ages and genders, as well as people with disabilities.

The basis of our work is the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. To protect children and young people, all employees are required to sign the Save the Children self-commitment declaration for child protection and to submit a current private and special private extract.
