Senior Philanthropy Fundraiser

2 months ago


Cheadle, Staffordshire, United Kingdom Charity People Full time
About the Role

The Senior Philanthropy Fundraiser will play a vital role in transitioning back from capital campaign to revenue, supporting the organisation to build a robust and sustainable philanthropy pipeline.

This is a permanent role and very much viewed as part of the hospice's long-term fundraising strategy. You'll be responsible for building on the strengths of an existing and established Major Gifts fundraising programme to provide a significant contribution to the new build target.

The role will begin with a focus on capital, but always one eye on future-proofing and long-term sustainability. You'll work closely with a well-connected and active Development Board to research and develop new contacts, harnessing the power of existing networks.

You'll be comfortable and confident making asks at five and six figures, and you'll love working in a supportive and collaborative environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build strong relationships with a variety of key stakeholders to generate income.
  • Develop and implement a new business development pipeline to secure gifts at £50k+.
  • Work flexibly to meet the needs of donors, understanding there isn't a 'one size fits all' approach.
  • Lead by example, raising people up and demonstrating a genuine team player approach.

Requirements

  • Seasoned philanthropy professional with a track record securing gifts at £50k+.
  • Strong budget management skills and ability to achieve targets.
  • Ability to demonstrate an understanding of philanthropy and what makes major donors tick.
  • Appetite and aptitude to build new relationships from scratch.
