This is a mobile sector as jobs relate to project funding. Some movement into senior admin or sideways to related areas eg charities administration. The salaries shown are UK averages. Salaries vary between organisations and often depend of the level of the job, size of the organisation and level of fundraising involved. Usually 9-5, with the occasional weekend or evening work.
Work is often out of the office with frequent visits and meetings with organisations.
Work is often alone or as part of a very small team. Opportunities are available in towns and cities, less so in rural areas. Lifestyle implications Ensuring reliability on the part of the volunteer, and ensuring that adequate levels of funding are maintained can be stressful, as can ensuring that the experience is beneficial to both volunteer and individual client or organisation. Part-time work is possible. No national figures are available, but it's thought to be a roughly equal balance.
