Development/fundraising professional, currently working in corporate development in the arts sector.
I have experience of working across fundraising (corporate, trust and foundation, individual giving, campaign design), and more broadly in marketing/comms and project work with individuals and community groups.
Motivated, co-operative and curious, I am quick to learn, and good at adapting to different environments and groups.
