London, United Kingdom LICC Full time

We're seeking to appoint a dynamic, experienced Director of Philanthropy to support the growth of our mission and income. Your work will enable us to equip tens of thousands of Christians across the UK to make a difference in their daily lives.

You'll be responsible for significantly increasing the level of giving through restricted and unrestricted sources, cultivating positive relationships with donors, sponsors, high-net-worth individuals, charities, trusts, and foundations. This position requires a strategic thinker with exceptional leadership and people skills, a strong track record in fundraising, and a passion for our cause. 

You’ll be a proactive, motivational leader, an adept project manager, prayerful, proficient in data analysis, and have outstanding written and verbal communication that appeals to diverse audiences.

The Director of Philanthropy will spearhead LICC’s efforts to substantially grow its voluntary income, driving a transformative fundraising strategy to enable the organisation to broaden the reach and impact of its mission.

Working in close partnership with the CEO, the postholder will oversee all streams of voluntary income, including major gifts, individual donations, and support from trusts and foundations. To that end, the role will involve cultivating and strengthening relationships with existing and prospective donors, identifying new funding opportunities, and preparing compelling funding applications and reports.

As a member of the Strategic Leadership Team, the postholder will help develop a culture of philanthropy across the organisation and align fundraising activities with the organisation’s vision and priorities. This role has two direct reports.
