• Previous experience as a door-to-door sales person (or significant experience in other face to face sales roles)
• Able to work core hours of 11-7, especially the twilight hours of 5-7 when most people are at home!
• An excellent communicator with demonstrable expertise interacting with the public, building an immediate face-to-face rapport and the ability to work under your own initiative to achieve target
• Full UK Driving license and access to your own vehicle
• Comfortable working outside in all weather.
• The desire to become a passionate advocate for the charity you represent
Benefits
• Basic salary starting from £23,795 + uncapped discretionary bonus (£45K+ OTE)
• 28 days annual leave, and flexi holiday scheme
• Pension

The hiring process has the following steps:
• CV application review - we aim to review your application as quickly as possible
• Let's talk - one of our team will contact you to discuss your experience and the role
• Virtual Interview - 1 hour video interview with one of our recruiters
• Fundraiser Experience - 1 hour in the field walking alongside an experienced door to door fundraiser so you can experience first-hand what the job entails and demonstrate an ability to open a conversation with a member of the public
Our commitment
As our fundraisers engage with the public daily, we need to ensure we recruit the best people. This means those with the right skills, experience and background that support our ambitions.
Charity Link is an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
