Fundraising Jobs - how to get experience?

Cynthia Williamson Coordinator at Charity Posted 2 years ago

Hi there
 
I currently work in community development, mainly helping community groups and small charities to set up and develop. A lot of the work I help with is around fundraising and funding, in an advisory capacity. 
 
I'm very keen to move into a fundraising officer role, but so many person specs require a lot more hand on experience (as opposed to just supporting with grant applications/advising on community fundraising methods etc)
 
So how do I land my first role in fundraising? 
 
All suggestions welcome!
 
Cheers
