Overview

SOSAD Ireland is a non profit organisation that provides free counselling services to people who are suffering with suicidal ideation, self harming, depression, bereavement, stress and anxiety, or if you simply need to talk. We have 6 offices based in Cavan, Louth, Meath, Monaghan and Laois from which we provide our services.

We are currently looking to fill a fundraising assistant role in Louth. As a fundraising assistant, you will work as part of the fundraising team assisting in any fundraising projects in the Louth area. It’s a paid part time role, requiring you to work 20 hours a week.

The role

The role of a fundraising assistant includes organising and helping to run events throughout the year. This role can be diverse as there is a wide range of events that we run. It can involve helping manage events such as 10km runs, to brainstorming new and innovative ideas. Fundraising can be demanding so we are looking for energetic and lively individuals with a variety of skills. This is a vitally important position in our organisation as we depend entirely on fundraising to run our offices. Without constant fundraising, we would not be able to provide our life saving service to the community.

The role requires you to work for 20 hours a week. You will be required to manage your own time.
