Senior Proposals & Contracts Officer
Education: MRes International Development, University of Bath
My responsibilities at Buffalo:
As the Senior Proposals & Contracts Officer within the Business Development Team, my focus is managing the pipeline and production of business proposals and contractual documents for our clients across the educational and mainstream charities we work with. This involves drafting our community fundraising proposals to suit each client relative to their needs and fundraising goals by coordinating cross-team insights, and preparing corresponding contractual documents for clients that choose to partner with us.
Why I chose to work for Buffalo:
Studying Social Sciences and International Development at university matured my understanding of social issues, including access to education, and inspired me to pursue a career in fundraising. My role at Buffalo provides me with an opportunity to undertake meaningful work, supporting educational charities to raise funds for much needed scholarships and bursaries that widen access to education. The immediate warmth and support I received upon joining the Buffalo team assured me that I had found a lovely place to work.
