**About us**:
Since our founding, we have always done things differently. Our diverse and global community of world-class academics, staff, students and alumni have the freedom and courage to challenge, question and think differently. We continuously break boundaries and develop solutions to real world problems.

In 2020, we closed one of the most successful fundraising campaigns in the UK’s higher education sector, which raised £624M and galvanised our community. We have undertaken a strategic review of our programmes and have started to design a roadmap for what’s next. This has led to the creation of 3 new Associate Director roles, and we are looking for talented people to join us to design and deliver our new programmes for Legacy Giving, Regular Giving and Donor Experience & Events initiatives.

**About the role**:
As the Associate Director of Legacy Giving, you will design, lead and implement a compelling legacy strategy, with associated giving propositions, to facilitate skilful and sensitive conversations around estate planning and foster a culture of giving to UCL in this way. Your work will not only be integral to the growth of a culture of philanthropy, but it will also be key to the evolution of our regular and major gift programmes.

**About you**:
You will be a confident leader with strategic and critical thinking skills, and be the institutional champion of legacy giving at UCL. You will ideally bring experience from the charity or higher education sector, of delivering innovative and effective campaigns, and both income and expenditure budget management. We are looking for someone who has proven that they can design and launch this type of programme, in collaboration with the leaders of other fundraising income streams, and who has a deep understanding of best practice in this arena. You will be a strategic relationship builder and sophisticated communicator, and bring proven experience of having worked across an organisation to bring stakeholders along with you to ensure the success of new initiatives. Key to your success in this role will be your curiosity and ability to create change while demonstrating diplomacy and sound judgement.

**What we offer**:
In return, you will join the team at an incredibly exciting time as we plan for UCL’s biggest ever fundraising and engagement campaign, launching in UCL’s bicentenary year, 2026. We are a team of passionate individuals who work together to achieve remarkable things with a global impact.

**Our commitment to Equality, Diversity and Inclusion**:
As London’s Global University, we know diversity fosters creativity and innovation, and we want our community to represent the diversity of the world’s talent. We are committed to equality of opportunity, to being fair and inclusive, and to being a place where we all belong.
