London, United Kingdom National Theatre Full time

We are looking for a Prospect Research & Donor Insight Manager to join the National Theatre Development Team.

The purpose of the role

This role is an exciting opportunity to help shape the future of fundraising at the National Theatre, as we look to grow our income from individual members, major donors, trusts and corporate organisations.

Working with the Senior Prospect Research & Donor Insight Manager, you will develop a strong fundraising pipeline that will ensure the team can reach their long-term targets.

Your natural curiosity will lead you to identify new opportunities using a variety of online sources in combination with the NT’s database, Tessitura, and you will be able to articulate your recommendations to fundraisers in a concise and compelling way. With excellent attention to detail, this role also undertakes due diligence research into potential funders to assess any risks to the NT of accepting funds. This role also manages the Development Operations Assistant, who leads the day-to-day administration of the Development database.

The role has scope to offer insights across the whole Development team and NT senior management, and would suit a strong collaborator with enthusiasm for the work of the NT.

The successful candidate will have the following: 

Experience of managing prospect research projects and supporting prospect pipeline management in a fundraising environment.

Experience of Tessitura or other customer relations management systems.

Proven ability to gather and interpret information for relevance from a variety of sources.

An appreciation for donor motivations and ability to make thoughtful connections with projects.

Evidence of the ability to present information in a clear and concise manner, both written and orally.

If that sounds like you, this may be the role for you
