Suicide or Survive: (SOS)

Mission is ‘To create and deliver innovative approaches that educate, inform and inspire people to cultivate good mental health and reduce stigma leading to less death by suicide’

One of the key drivers behind the work of Suicide or Survive is the desire to harness individuals’ own strengths and provide them with the tools to improve their own mental wellness. Underlying our vision is the idea that “behind every statistic on suicide and self-harm, there is a person” (Suicide or Survive 2012) and that every person has the capability of living a full life regardless of the challenges they may face in their mental health throughout their lives. Suicide or Survive started at the founder Caroline’s kitchen table, born out of her own lived experience and that of people she encountered. The organisation has always remained true to its roots with the influence of the lived experience of people with their mental health in everything it does.

Our aim as an organisation is to fill the gaps in existing services for those who have attempted or contemplated suicide and to compliment other services and supports. We work in collaboration with other statutory, community and voluntary services to maximise our impact and reduce the stigma and discrimination that surrounds suicide.

Suicide or Survive are in the process of coproducing a new organisation strategy including a Fundraising strategy and Implementation Plan (2026- 2030). We are recruiting an experienced, dynamic Fundraising & Partnerships Manager to join their collaborative and supportive team. This is an exciting opportunity to grow and influence the area of suicide prevention and raise awareness of Suicide or Survive and their activities.

The successful candidate will lead fundraising at the organisation working closely with the CEO, Team and Board and possess the experience and skills to enable Suicide or Survive to develop a myriad of fundraising streams including trusts, corporates, major donor engagement, strategic and community events, direct mail and recurring giving. They will have an excellent understanding of what is currently working in the fundraising landscape and coproduce a plan to create sustainable income generation for Suicide or Survive to strengthen and grow their current activities.

Are you passionate about Suicide Prevention? Do you want to be part of a small but powerful team? Are you a focused and results driven professional with proven experience in this area and a passion for the work of Suicide or Survive (SOS). If so, we would love to hear from you.
