Salary: £57,000 - £60,000
Location: Hybrid working – 2dpw at the office in Aldgate
Start Date: mid/late September
Breast Cancer Now is entering an exciting new phase of development, with significant investment taking place across the high value fundraising team. The Head of Trusts & Statutory Development sits within the senior team of a newly established High Value Partnerships & Campaign Department, which has huge ambition to transform high value income for the organisation over the next 5 years.
We’re looking for an inspiring team leader and trusts fundraising expert who thrives in maximising high value, multi-year relationships. The year ahead is a significant one and the Head of Trusts & Statutory Development will play a key role in strengthening and stabilising BAU income while ensuring the team is set up for long-term success and delivering against key Campaign activities.
You will lead a team of 2, ensuring exceptional relationship management across a portfolio of existing relationships and empowering them to identify opportunities for pipeline development with new prospects. You will also work closely with colleagues in the wider department, ensuring the smooth transition and onboarding of any new relationships.
As a senior leader, your focus will be on strategy, influence and empowering the team over day-to-day relationship management, but you will retain core senior stakeholder relationships (internally and externally) as necessary.
As Head of Trusts & Statutory Development you will:
- Strategically lead a team of 2, ensuring they feel empowered and confident to take ownership of their portfolios and identify opportunities for further relationship development;
- Refine and deliver long-term growth and retention strategies for the trusts and statutory portfolio, maximising income potential across a variety of funders;
- Further shape and refine new ways of working for the team, strengthening processes to enable long-term success;
- Ensure internal briefings and insight sharing are high-quality, providing key funder information ahead of meetings and events;
- Champion integrated working across the charity, ensuring external-facing teams are aligned and able to amplify partner activity in line with organisational priorities.
The role would best suit:
- A senior fundraiser with robust experience of trusts and foundations fundraising and strategic relationship development;
- An individual with a track record of securing and managing high-value, multi-year relationships;
- An individual with expertise of managing complex budgets with the ability to drive activity that leads to long term, sustainable growth opportunities for the team;
- A collaborative team leader, keen to empower your team, celebrate success and enable a culture of collaboration and shared learning.
Please get in touch as soon as possible to express an initial interest, the deadline for applications (CV and cover letter) is Friday 26th June with first stage interviews scheduled to take place w/c 29th June.
We are committed to diverse and inclusive recruitment practices that ensure equal opportunity for everyone, regardless of race, sexual orientation, mental or physical disability, age or gender.
