London, United Kingdom QuarterFive Fundraising Recruitment Full time

**Interviews will take place on a rolling basis, so please apply ASAP. For suitable candidates, a detailed brief will be shared along with cover letter support**

Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.

Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. They have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. The charity invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. And they work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.

The role of Senior Philanthropy Executive is instrumental in growing PCUK’s Philanthropy income stream. You will be responsible for generating 5- and 6-figure gifts from trusts, foundations and major donors, through proactive identification of prospects and first-rate stewardship of existing donors. You’ll also harness the support of PCUK’s enthusiastic and influential Trustees, Senior Volunteers and Leadership Team, involving them in ‘making the ask’, thanking, as well as attending events.

As Senior Philanthropy Executive, you will: 

  • Deliver 5- and 6-figure gifts from trusts and major donors from new and existing donors
  • Manage a portfolio of medium to large sized trusts and major donors
  • Identify and engage new prospects, with the support of PCUK’s Prospect Researcher
  • Support the Head of Philanthropy and Head of Appeal with the development and implementation of our new major appeal strategy
  • Provide assistance to the Philanthropy Manager and broader team with more complex relationships and applications
  • Build effective, senior level relationships with Trustees, Ambassadors and the Leadership Team, identifying networks and providing comprehensive briefings

Ideal skills and experience:

  • Demonstrated success in securing 4- or 5-figure donations in the charity sector
  • Strong communication skills to engage with a diverse range of stakeholders
  • Ability to spot opportunities and craft compelling funding proposals
  • A strong collaborator who is also able to work independently

Employee benefits

Benefits include: 

  • Flexible working, which includes hybrid working with core working hours of 10am to 4pm Monday to Friday, unless otherwise agreed
  • 28 days annual leave plus bank holidays, increasing to 30 days after three full years service
  • After one years’ service you have the option to buy and sell up to an additional week’s annual leave (subject to minimum/maximum leave)
  • Enhanced maternity, paternity & adoption pay
  • Enhanced sick pay
  • Healthcare Cash Plan (Medicash)
  • 50% discount on multi-gym membership. Our closest gym – Cottons London Bridge (next to our London Bridge office) – is a Tier 1 facility
  • Life assurance (3 x annual salary)
  • Free income protection scheme

Prostate Cancer UK believe that equity, diversity and inclusion are essential to building a strong and innovative workplace, that represents, and can advocate for the communities we support. We stand against discrimination and prejudice, and we champion tolerance, fairness and equality in everything they do.

PCUK are committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men who are at double risk. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men’s risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. Therefore, PCUK are particularly interested in applications from those from marginalised and vulnerable communities. This will help PCUK to create an environment of inclusion where everyone can bring their authentic selves to work, where personal qualities are as important as professional experience, and our people feel seen and heard.
