Sponsors

The Scottish Conference 2008 could not offer the hugely improved delegate rates and quality of event without the generous support of our sponsors.

  • Bruce Tait Associates

    Bruce Tait Associates is a specialist fundraising recruitment agency. We are delighted to be one of the Sponsors of the Scottish Fundraising Conference.
    We have recruited over 30 fundraisers for Scottish charities and non-profits over the last year and we are confident that no other agency understands Scottish fundraising recruitment as well as we do. What makes us different is that all of our team have been fundraisers for Scottish charities ourselves, so we know exactly what it takes to make a good fundraiser.
    We use this experience to search our vast database of candidates and to undertake executive searches using our extensive contacts in the voluntary sector. This has helped us recruit outstanding fundraising professionals for charities, universities, arts and heritage centres, schools and community organisations.
    And we make no charge unless we find our client the perfect person for their role, whether that job is Fundraising Administrator or Director of Development.
    To find out more about how we can help you find the perfect person to raise funds for your organisation, contact us at:

  • Relationship Marketing

    At Relationship Marketing we firmly believe that the passion of the relationship should be at the heart of all that you do when communicating with your supporters, not only at the beginning of the relationship but through the lifetime of the donor’s support to your cause. Through education and training we can inspire our colleagues to ensure that they develop and maintain strong and powerful relationships with their donors to ensure that their organisations maximise the investment in acquisition. This is what Relationship Marketing calls Stewardship!! For further information on our work and our ideas on Acquisition and Stewardship, please speak to our Director of Development, Gordon Michie.
