Thank you for your interest in the Philanthropy Manager role at Imperial Health Charity. We are seeking a skilled and highly motivated Philanthropy Manager to join our small but passionate, and collaborative fundraising team. This is a critical role, responsible for generating income and building meaningful relationships with major donors, trusts and foundations and corporate partners.

You will lead on identifying, cultivating, and securing new gifts at the five-figure-plus level, while delivering exceptional stewardship to your portfolio of supporters. This will include creating bespoke impact reports, organising hospital site visits, and curating exclusive engagement opportunities and events.

As Philanthropy Manager, you will also develop and deliver a range of compelling fundraising propositions that enable our hospitals to achieve more for patients, families, and the North West London community. Working closely with colleagues across the Charity and Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust, you will manage major capital projects, donor led projects and appeals from inception through to delivery and evaluation.

We are looking for a proactive self-starter with high levels of motivation, who thrives in a collaborative environment and brings fresh ideas to a small, ambitious team.

Every day, firefighters across the UK run towards the things most of us run from. The Fire Fighters Charity exists to support them and the people they love, when they need it most.

Now they're looking for someone to help grow the income that makes that possible.

This is a rare one.

Face to face fundraising at the Fire Fighters Charity isn't a tired legacy channel, it's a programme that's been rebuilt, is already performing strongly, and is seen as central to the charity's future. The in-house team works directly with fire and rescue services across the country. A public-facing agency programme runs alongside it. Both are growing. Both need stronger leadership.

That's where you come in.

As Face to Face Manager, you won't just be keeping the plates spinning. You'll be shaping strategy, building business cases, improving data and reporting, managing agencies and an in-house team, and helping take this programme to the next level. You'll have direct access to the firefighters themselves, whose stories are among the most compelling anywhere in the charity sector.

What you'll bring:

A solid grounding or at least a strong working knowledge in face to face or dialogue fundraising, whether from the charity side or an agency background. Strong data skills and confidence with KPIs and reporting. The strategic instinct to see the bigger picture, not just the next campaign. And the personality to thrive in a remote, relationship-driven role where no two weeks look the same.

Experience with Salesforce or a similar CRM is a plus. A solutions-focused mindset is a must.

Why it matters:
