ABOUT SUZY LAMPLUGH TRUST: 

The Suzy Lamplugh Trust was established in memory of Suzy Lamplugh, a young estate agent who tragically disappeared while at work in 1986 and was later declared deceased in 1993. Created to honour Suzy’s legacy, the Trust aims to empower individuals and organisations to take a stand against abuse, aggression, and violence in all forms, supporting safety in both personal and professional lives.

Role overview: 

This is a new and developing service focused on increasing accessibility to stalking support for underrepresented and marginalised communities across London.  The postholder will play a key role in designing, embedding, and delivering this community-based model, working closely with community groups, partners, and volunteers whilst holding a small caseload leading to building trusted pathways into service for communities that may face barriers to accessing traditional support.

2. Community Champions: Staff/volunteers within third-party organisations within the London ecosystem of service providers who are trained to provide first-responder level support within their own communities. 

The role builds and manages networks of community champions and first responders while holding a reduced advocacy caseload. 

Initially office-based (London) for 3 months to support a meaningful induction, moving to a blended working model (40% office / 60% home).

WHO WE ARE
 
24-7 Prayer is an international, interdenominational prayer movement, with a vision to revive the church and rewire the culture through non-stop night and day prayer. 
 
We started in 1999, when a simple student-led prayer vigil went viral and groups all over the world joined in to pray. Now, over two decades later, thousands of communities have taken part in 24-7 Prayer in churches, communities and cities in over half the countries on earth. From apps and courses to prayer rooms and blogs; we exist to help people pray. 
 
THE ROLE 
 
We're looking for an experienced Mid & Major Donor Manager who is passionate about connecting people with the vision, people and projects across the 24-7 Prayer movement that inspire generous giving. 
 
You'll love building authentic relationships and helping supporters discover how their generosity can fuel prayer, mission and justice around the world. You'll be someone who enjoys listening well, thinking strategically, and communicating impact in ways that help donors feel deeply connected to the movement they are helping to resource.

We're looking for someone who is motivated by both people and outcomes—someone who enjoys using insight and data to build strong donor relationships and achieve ambitious fundraising goals. 
 
Above all, you'll have a personal passion for prayer, mission and justice, and a desire to see the vision of 24-7 Prayer continue to grow and achieve its mission to revive the church and rewire the culture.  
 
Role Overview
 
As the Mid & Major Donor Manager, you will develop and deliver strategies that inspire individuals to invest in the mission of 24-7 Prayer through four and five-figure gifts. You will manage a portfolio of mid and major donors and prospects, leading cultivation, solicitation and stewardship activity that helps supporters deepen their partnership with the movement. Through thoughtful relationship management, you'll create personalised opportunities for donors to engage with the stories, people and projects that matter most to them. 
 
You'll work closely with colleagues across the organisation to communicate impact, identify opportunities and ensure supporters experience exceptional care throughout their giving journey.
