Migraine is the third most common disease in the world.  Over 10 million people across the UK are living with this complex, painful, debilitating and exhausting brain disease right now, and it is ruining far too many lives.

The Migraine Trust has been investing in migraine research, providing high-quality, evidence-based information and support, and campaigning for change for 55 years. 

At the end of February we launched our exciting new five-year strategy with the aim of reaching more people affected by migraine, involving more people, helping more people, and improving more people’s lives.

Here’s where you come in!  We are looking for an outstanding Fundraising and Supporter Engagement Officer to help transform our charity’s fundraising activities.

You will be a brilliant fundraising all-rounder with limitless creativity, enthusiasm and determination, and the ability to lead a range of diverse fundraising projects while working collaboratively with other teams from across our charity. 

You’ll be part of a new Fundraising Team that will be the engine for our charity’s ambitions.  We want to grow the number of people supporting our charity from just over a thousand currently to several thousand over the next decade.  And you’ll be able to use as many effective, innovative and engaging fundraising approaches as possible to get us there, while delivering an amazing experience for our donors.  We’re particularly looking to boost our digital fundraising, legacies, regular-giving, trusts and foundations, major donor and corporates activity.

In return we offer a competitive salary and generous employer pension; an informal, family-friendly and inclusive culture in a newly refurbished central London office; an absolute commitment to your personal development; and the opportunity to work with some of the most passionate and ‘can do’ people in the charity world.

We want to help you to do amazing things of which you’ll always be proud.  We want you to be as ambitious for yourself as you are for our charity.  And we want you to have fun and challenge yourself at work.

Hazelwood is an independent co-educational Prep School for children aged between 4 and 13 years of age.  It has a linked nursery (on a separate site 2 miles away), The Nursery and Early Years, which caters for children between the ages of 3 months and 4 years.  The school has a rich history spanning over 125 years.  In that time, many generations of the same families have passed through its doors on their way to some of the UK’s leading Senior Schools and Universities. There is a strong sense of affinity with the school in the local community.  The nearest town, Oxted, is situated one mile away and has excellent mainline rail links into London.  The M25 is easily accessible. 

In September 2020 we will have almost 600 children across the two sites.  The Prep School is situated in 25 acres of grounds with phenomenal views over the North Downs.  The school boasts some wonderful facilities (with plans for more in 2020) which are open to use by the local community after school hours as part of a developing Lettings Programme.

The Role

The school is looking to recruit an Enterprise Manager who can, whilst working within the boundaries of the School’s vision and brand values, develop a programme of recognised and ground-breaking initiatives to develop new or extend existing revenue streams.

These may include, but not be restricted to:

An enhanced Lettings Programme making wider and more creative use of existing facilities.

A connection with the school’s alumni in order to re-engage with past pupils and to involve them in the life of the school, past, present and future.

An opportunity to harness the school’s human resources and innovative approach to teaching and learning for the benefit of pupils overseas

A report has been commissioned by the school which is available, as a starting point, for the successful candidate to review and develop. 

The Enterprise Manager is a newly created role for the school.  The successful candidate will work closely with members of the Senior Leadership Team and the Board of Governors.

The Successful Candidate

Will be someone with experience of working within the fund-raising sector, and ideally within schools or the education sector with a proven track record in generating revenue from alternative business streams.

You should possess energy for both developing ideas and implementing them. 

You will boast a creative mind balanced by the ability to be analytical and consider the finer detail.

You will have a detailed grasp on developing budgets and financial plans showing required investment and possible returns on that investment.

You will be a convincing orator, a persuasive negotiator and credible sales person.

You will find building and maintaining relationships based on trust, honesty and integrity, comes naturally to you.

You should respond well to targets; those of your own setting and those set by others and be able to demonstrate a delivery against high expectations.

You should relish the opportunity of navigating unchartered waters and of making a difference.

You should love working in an environment which exists for the benefit of educating young people and should see their progress as your motivation to excel in your role. 

You should be as happy working front of house as in the backroom delivery.

The Enterprise Manager will be expected to uphold and actively promote the Hazelwood Behaviour Competencies of Big Picture Thinking, Communication, Adaptability & Flexibility, Building Relationships, Planning & Organisation, Professionalism and Teamwork.

Profile

In addition, the profile of a successful Enterprise Manager is likely to demonstrate qualities of:

• Being able, as the scale of the role progresses, to assemble and lead a team successfully, motivating them to give of their best whilst also being a co-operative team player with a flexible and adaptable approach to the working environment.
• Integrity, honesty, loyalty and reliability.
• Diplomacy, discretion, patience and humour.
• Desire to become involved in the wider aspects of school life

The individual should be able

• To work alone, unsupervised and with proven initiative.
• To prioritise and delegate tasks successfully.
• To plan ahead and to anticipate requirements.
• To be both reactive and proactive in equal measure.
• To work under pressure and within tight lead-times.
• To set a good example of conduct and behaviour for all pupils
• To demonstrate computer literacy and competency at spreadsheet creation

Conditions

Employment & Management

Hours of Work

The routine hours of work are from 08.30 to 17.30, Monday to Friday inclusive with an hour for lunch (of which half an hour is unpaid). Lunch is provided in the school Dining Hall free of charge during term time.  There will be occasions when some weekend or after-hours work will be required as part of the role.  On other occasions such overtime may be authorised for separate payment. During School holidays hours of work are 09.00 to 16.30. 

The role of Enterprise Manager is a full time (52 weeks) permanent position. 

Salary

The School will expect to pay a salary up to £40,000 p.a., negotiable, dependent upon qualifications and experience.

Holiday

You are entitled to six weeks holiday per annum (pro rata’d if shorter working days are negotiated), one of which is to be taken during the Christmas break when the School is closed. Bank and other National holidays are authorised outside this entitlement. Your holidays, with the approval of the Bursar, can be taken during school term time.

Medical

Disclosure

The School is committed to safeguarding the welfare of children and you will be required to apply for Enhanced Disclosure through the Criminal Records Bureau. The revealing of an undisclosed criminal record could jeopardise the agreement between the Employee and the Employer.

This is an opportunity for employees to express their wishes for future professional development, as well as for the School to express its view of the employee’s progress and its proposals for employee development.
