Administrative Technician for the Fundraising Area (Sick Leave Cover)

REF. 26-151_MS_CS

About the research group

The IDIBELL Communication and Fundraising Unit works to strengthen the institute’s institutional image, bring research closer to society and mobilise resources to support scientific activity.

Specifically, the Fundraising Area focuses on generating the philanthropic resources and strategic partnerships needed to accelerate biomedical research and translate its results into better health outcomes for people. We work to connect society with science by creating opportunities for collaboration among citizens, companies, foundations, associations and major donors who wish to contribute to the development of new diagnostic methods, treatments and solutions to major health challenges.

IDIBELL’s Fundraising Area structures its activities around two complementary areas of work: donation management and sponsorship management. In the area of donations, the unit promotes fundraising from individuals, foundations, companies, associations and major donors. Regarding sponsorships, the unit supports researchers and the organisation in securing, formalising and managing partnerships with companies and other organisations that provide funding for scientific, training and outreach activities.

About the role

IDIBELL’s Fundraising Area is looking for an Administrative Technician to join the team on a temporary basis and provide administrative support for the management of donations, sponsorships and fundraising initiatives.

The selected candidate will be responsible for managing the administrative process involved in formalising sponsorships and donations, which consists of three stages: liaising with researchers, sponsors and donors to obtain the information required to open a case file; providing administrative support throughout the entire process (preparing the relevant documentation, registering the agreement in the institutional ERP system, etc.); and closing the sponsorship or donation file (coordinating with the Finance Department to verify its registration and invoicing, preparing the documentation requested by sponsors to justify their contribution, etc.).

In parallel, the selected candidate will support the Communication and Fundraising Unit with its day-to-day administrative tasks, including handling phone calls, managing purchasing processes and supplier relation, maintaining donor and partner databases, and providing support for activities organised by the Unit.
