Background

About Jane Roberts

I am an experienced fundraising and charity sector professional with a proven record of driving income growth, developing strategic partnerships, and leading high-performing teams. In my roles, I have overseen a wide range of fundraising activities, including corporate sponsorship, event management, and community engagement. Throughout my career, I have successfully developed new income streams, strengthened supporter relationships, and increased public awareness for the causes I care about. My background includes coordinating volunteers, managing communications and marketing materials, and ensuring compliance with sector standards and policies. In addition to my work in the charity sector, I am the owner of Wellwood Alpacas, where I combine my passion for animal welfare with community education and sustainable business practices. I am passionate about building collaborative relationships with stakeholders, donors, clients, and colleagues, and I thrive in environments where I can apply strategic thinking and practical problem-solving to achieve sustainable results. Alongside my professional experience, I have completed training in psychodynamic counselling, counselling skills, and mental health first aid, which inform my empathetic leadership approach and commitment to supporting others. I welcome the opportunity to connect with fellow professionals and explore ways to create positive, lasting impact across the charity, non-profit, and small business sectors.
