We are looking for an experienced fundraiser, to lead on fundraising in the Department of Physics, as part of the friendly team working across the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division.
The Department of Physics is one of the top five departments in the world. Our academics observe the wonders of the Universe from the very big to the very small: from seeking planets with the potential for life outside the solar system, to undertaking some of the most delicate experiments in quantum physics. Physics has applications in so many fields, including biology and nanotechnology, to find new ways to treat cancer; the development of new materials to generate green energy; and the understanding of climate science, with its impact on the Earth. The Physics Department is active in developing these applications in part through a strong innovation culture that has created nine new companies since 2018 and with six more in the pipeline for 2024. The Department has a deeply embedded ED&I culture.
About the role:
You will be raising money to support research; to enable students from around the world and from every background to come and study at Oxford; and to help promote the public understanding of Physics. You will work closely with the Head of Physics, as well as some of the most inspiring scientists in the world, and will forge relationships with existing and new donors to the department. While an interest in science is essential, you do not need to be a Physics graduate, just an enthusiast for knowledge.
About you:
You are an experienced development professional with a strong track record of securing major gifts, a confident approach and the ability to think creatively. You will lead on major gift fundraising (£100k-£1m+) working with a range of donors (corporates, trusts and individuals). The department has a well-established alumni programme and a very active and supportive development board that you will work closely with.
What We Offer:
As an employer, we value the wellbeing and development of all our employees. We offer a comprehensive range of benefits, including:
- 38 days annual leave (including public holidays)
- Hybrid working arrangements for a healthy work-life balance
- Extensive personal and professional development opportunities
- Membership to CASE to support your professional development as an educational advancement professional
- Supportive childcare services and other family-friendly leave schemes for working parents, guardians and those with caring responsibilities
- Generous family leave for pregnancy, adoption, paternity, and shared parental leave
- Excellent contributory pension scheme for your financial future
- Salary sacrifice scheme for additional savings
- Subsidised sports centre membership to promote well-being
- Cycle loan scheme to encourage sustainable commuting
- Discounted bus and transit travel
In addition, you will have access to a vibrant community with social groups and sports clubs fostering an inclusive atmosphere.
Application process:
- Click the link to ‘Apply’ and follow the on-screen instructions. You will be taken to our online Applicant portal.
- Applications should consist of a full CV and a letter of application (maximum of 2 pages), in PDF format, outlining your motivations to apply for this role, your relevant experience and how you meet the criteria of the person specification.

Interviews are currently scheduled to take place week commencing 17 April 2024, in person in Oxford.
