Fundraising Support Employee 50%

*Do you want to use your precision and organizational talent to ensure that animal welfare has an impact?* Fundraising Support Employee 50% Schweizer Tierschutz STS is the umbrella organization of over 70 animal welfare organizations throughout Switzerland. As the largest nationally active animal welfare organization, we are committed with passion and scientifically sound foundations to the welfare of domestic, wild, farm, and laboratory animals. As an organization in change, we are making our work more participatory, transparent, and less hierarchical. Effective animal welfare needs a strong foundation: carefully maintained data, reliable processes, and professional interaction with the people who make our work possible. As an enabler in the background, you create the prerequisites so that our fundraising specialists can use their time where it has the most impact: in the personal support of donors, foundations, and companies, as well as in the further development of effective fundraising measures. Do you want to use your commercial skills for a meaningful task, actively help shape processes, and provide support to the fundraising team? What you can achieve with us: • Ensure data quality and CRM: You maintain and update relevant donor and partner data in our CRM system, document contacts and interactions, and ensure high data quality. In doing so, you are a reliable interface to external agencies. • Reliably handle donation processes: You ensure the careful administrative processing of sensitive donation processes - such as memorial donations, special acknowledgments, legacies, major donations, and donation confirmations. You coordinate closely with accounting and ensure that everything is processed correctly and on time. • Support relationships and communication: You participate in thank-you, retention, and communication measures, support newsletters and special campaigns, and organize special mailings. In this way, you help ensure that donors experience the appreciation their commitment deserves. • Keep the fundraising team operational: You flexibly take on administrative and coordinative tasks, prioritize them independently, and relieve our fundraising specialists in day-to-day business. • Further develop processes: You think ahead, recognize potential for optimization, and contribute your ideas. With your structured way of working, you ensure that cooperation between fundraising, accounting, donation service, and external partners functions smoothly. What you bring with you: • Sound foundation: Completed commercial training or a comparable qualification as well as several years of experience in an administrative, coordinative, or support-related function. • Digital and analytical strength: Experience in dealing with databases or CRM systems as well as very good MS Office skills, especially in Excel and Word. • Precision and discretion: An exact, structured, and reliable way of working as well as a responsible handling of sensitive data. • Organizational talent: You maintain an overview even with several parallel tasks, set priorities, and ensure timely implementation. • Proactive attitude: You think ahead, take responsibility for your processes, and find pragmatic, solution-oriented ways. • Collaboration: You enjoy working with different interfaces, communicate clearly and in a service-oriented manner, and support your team with joy. • Identification: You want to use your expertise for animal welfare and commit yourself together with us to better living conditions for animals. • Language competence: Very good German skills in speaking and writing. *Experience in the non-profit environment or fundraising, as well as in cooperation with accounting and external agencies, is a plus.* What awaits you with us: • Meaningful work: As important support in the background, you enable effective fundraising - and thus help the entire STS to commit sustainably to the welfare of animals. • Responsibility with impact: You organize your area of responsibility independently, ensure quality in central processes, and actively help shape administrative processes. • Real scope for design: Your ideas and your eye for improvements are in demand. Short decision-making paths allow you to contribute optimizations easily. • Flexibility: A modern workplace in Zürich Altstetten, home office possibilities, and flexible working hours. • Strong team: A dedicated, professional, and supportive environment that works together to advance animal welfare in Switzerland. • Attractive employment conditions: Market-conform remuneration in the non-profit sector and good social benefits.
