About the Role
We’re reshaping our approach to major donor fundraising at the Connection, creating space for a new Philanthropy Lead to focus on forging new connections, building meaningful relationships and securing transformational income.
You’ll take the lead on our highest value and highest potential major donor relationships, while driving forwards two exciting strategic projects including our flagship Make It Home campaign board.
You’ll be part of a lean, ambitious and supportive philanthropy team alongside our Trusts Manager and Philanthropy Officer, with strategic direction and professional development from our Head of Fundraising Development, and close collaboration across the wider Fundraising & Communications team.
We’re open to candidates from a range of backgrounds. You might already work in fundraising, or you might come from a role where you build relationships, manage clients, or bring people together – for example in hospitality, sales, events or partnerships.
This role is perfect for someone who is naturally outgoing, confident and curious. If you love meeting new people, spotting opportunities to connect and telling compelling stories, this is a role where you can make a real difference.
This is a 24-month fixed‑term contract. We are offering this role at either 0.6 or 0.8 FTE.
