Hello,
I will be moving to London from Toronto, Canada at the end of August and looking for a job in the fundraising field. I am currently working at Parkinson Society Canada as a Corporate and Foundation Officer, where I develop and manage fundraising and stewardship programs in support of major gifts from corporations and trusts.
I have secured a two year work visa and I am excited to learn new skills in a new country, but I am also looking for advice regarding job hunting. Any advice or suggestions on:
1) Where to look for fundraising jobs in the UK.
2) Any thoughts on what I can do in advance before I arrive in the UK in terms of making connections or developing leads.
3) The differences between UK resumes and Canadian resumes, if anyone has experience in this.
I'm happy to provide more detail on my background and experience if that is helpful. Thanks very much I'm looking forward to your input.
Cheers!
Sarah Stuewe
