Are you an ambitious high-value fundraiser with strong relationship management experience? Are you ready for a unique opportunity to help drive transformational change in child health? Then this is the role for you

We believe that every child deserves a breakthrough.

Whether it's a new treatment for an incurable disease, a faster way to diagnose a condition, or a way to minimise the side effects of treatment, we will continue to fund research that helps more children thrive into adulthood.

Until no childhood is lost to serious illness.


As Philanthropy Manager, you will be a key player in securing philanthropic gifts for paediatric medical research as the charity makes it largest ever investment into child health research, as well as other areas of GOSH Charity's work, including our largest appeal to date for the new Children's Cancer Centre at GOSH.

The salary for this position is £37,387 per annum.

You are a proactive individual, with experience in shaping fundraising initiatives or similar projects effectively in partnership with key stakeholders.

You are a positive team player with a professional, solution focused approach.

You'll have:

  • Proven experience of philanthropy fundraising or an equivalent field with a track record of initiating new highvalue relationships and managing longterm donor/client relationships.
  • Excellent verbal, interpersonal and written skills with great attention to detail, and an ability to digest complex programmes of research, flexing your style according to the audience.
  • Experience and/or understanding of philanthropy within the healthcare and/or a medical research setting.
  • Ability to manage your own workload and prioritise multiple tasks, work under pressure and within tight deadlines.
About the Team

The Philanthropy Manager sits within the Philanthropy team – part of the Relationship Fundraising division within the wider Fundraising Directorate.

The team focuses on securing gifts from high net-worth individuals and charitable foundations and manages a substantial high value programme.

The Philanthropy Manager will sit within a sub-team of three fundraisers – a Philanthropy Executive, a Philanthropy Manager, with both being managed by a Senior Philanthropy Manager.

About the Charity

Every day brings new challenges at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH). Every day, over 750 seriously ill children from across the UK arrive for life-changing treatments. Every day, young lives hang in the balance as patients, families and staff battle the most complex illnesses.

And every day, the brightest minds come together to achieve pioneering medical breakthroughs that change the lives of thousands of children – and change the world.

This extraordinary hospital has always depended on charitable support to give seriously ill children the best chance to fulfil their potential.

Without donations, Great Ormond Street Hospital Charity can't help fund ground-breaking research, advanced equipment, child and family support services, and the rebuilding and refurbishment of wards and medical facilities.

Our staff help to raise these vital funds for the hospital. A better future
for seriously ill children starts with you.

Along with being awarded the 'Sunday Times Best Places to Work 2023', we were delighted to be recently awarded the Charity Times Fundraising Team of the Year 2023.


Our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion

A more diverse workforce will enable us to deliver even more impact and we particularly encourage applications from communities which are under-represented in the charity.

This includes people from ethnically diverse backgrounds, disabled people or those with long-term conditions, LGBTQ+ communities, and those from less advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds.

Further information on our EDI strategy can be found on our website.


As a Level 2 Disability Confident Employer we are more than happy to make reasonable adjustments wherever possible throughout the recruitment process.

For more information on this please contact us.

Applications will be reviewed on an on-going basis and we reserve the right to close the role prior to the closing date, should a suitable applicant be found.

Therefore, you are encouraged to apply right away, to avoid disappointment.
