Methodology: medians reconcile live advertised UK salaries for this role and region; 25th–75th percentiles are shown only where at least 5 live salaried listings back them. They are measured or omitted, never interpolated. Rows marked indicative are anchored to our curated 2026 baseline ranges until enough live data accrues. Listings advertising an implausible annual figure (a mislabelled hourly or daily rate) are excluded rather than converted, because converting one means guessing the hours behind it.

Market view. Fundraising assistants and community fundraisers anchor the band, officers and executives the middle, and trusts, major-donor and corporate-partnerships managers the top (£45,000–£60,000). Large national charities and London pay most; small charities least. Face-to-face and telephone fundraising is often hourly (£12.50–£15).
