We’re looking for a Poppyscotland Database Coordinator to join us on an 18-month fixed-term contract, taking a hands on role in managing the supporter data that sits behind our fundraising activity. From processing donations and maintaining accurate supporter records to managing data imports, integrations and daily CRM operations, you’ll be responsible for keeping our database running smoothly. It’s a varied role where you’ll work with different types of data, investigate discrepancies and make sure information is accurate, secure and ready for teams to use.
Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.
You’ll work closely with colleagues across Fundraising, the Poppy Appeal and Finance, becoming a trusted point of contact for database queries and technical support. Alongside the day-to-day management of our Charity CRM system, you’ll have the opportunity to get involved in system improvements, testing new functionality and refining processes to make our data management more efficient. We’re looking for someone who enjoys getting into the detail, can spot problems before they become bigger issues and has the confidence to investigate, challenge and resolve them.
You’ll bring experience of working with CRM databases, ideally Charity CRM (ThankQ) or a similar platform such as Raiser’s Edge, Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics, together with strong Excel skills and a working knowledge of SQL. You’ll be comfortable handling large volumes of data, understand database structures, reporting and testing, and know how important accuracy is when dealing with supporter information. Just as importantly, you’ll be organised, approachable and able to explain technical information clearly to colleagues who aren't database specialists. If you enjoy combining technical problem-solving with practical, hands-on database management, this is a great opportunity to put your expertise to work within Poppyscotland.
You will be contracted to your home address, and you will perform most of your work remotely there, with occasional travel (incl. For monthly team meetings).
