Job description

This is a new role to sit in a fast paced and growing fundraising team.  Reporting to the Senior Philanthropy and Major Gifts Manager, this role will be responsible for managing a portfolio of mid-level funders, develop compelling funding applications, support the stewardship of high-value funders, and ensure accurate reporting and data compliance.

The role supports the Senior Philanthropy and Major Gifts Manager in delivering the Trusts & Foundations strategy, maintaining fundraising processes, and identifying new funding opportunities, while contributing to the overall success of the fundraising department.

The post holder will work closely with colleagues across Fundraising, Marketing, Care Teams, Finance, Senior Management, Trustees and the Director of Fundraising and Hospice Development.

This is a hybrid role however due to its collaborative nature and the need to regularly meet donors, team members and hospice colleagues on-site we ask that applicants are able to commute to St John’s Wood at least three days per week, with a preference for four.

What would be my responsibilities as a Senior Philanthropy and Gifts Executive?

  • Support delivery of the Trusts & Foundations strategy, including prospect research and pipeline development.
  • Lead on mid‑level funding applications (£5k–£50k) and contribute to high‑value bids.
  • Produce accurate impact and financial reports, coordinating information across care, finance and service teams.
  • Manage and steward a portfolio of funders, ensuring personalised communication and strong relationships
  • Support high‑level donor engagement, including meetings, presentations and site visits.
  • Maintain accurate CRM records and ensure compliance with GDPR and fundraising standards.
  • Contribute to donor profiles, solicitation plans and stewardship schedules, working collaboratively across income streams.
  • Provide guidance to junior staff and deputise for the Senior Philanthropy & Major Gifts Manager when required.

Am I the right person for this role?

  • 2+ years in Trust & Foundation fundraising or equivalent bid‑writing role
  • Proven experience in Trusts & Foundations fundraising, bid‑writing, and securing 4‑figure+ grants.
  • Strong relationship‑management skills with internal and external stakeholders, including donors.
  • Excellent written communication and analytical ability, with confidence interpreting financial information.
  • Ability to manage competing priorities, work independently, and contribute effectively to a team.
  • Knowledge of the UK Trusts & Foundations sector and experience using CRM systems (ideally Salesforce).
  • Collaborative and values‑driven approach, with willingness to support colleagues, mentor junior staff, and work flexibly (incl. occasional evenings/weekends).
  • Comfortable leading meetings and building strong working relationships across hospice, fundraising, and external partners.

 Why apply for this role? 

At our organisation we are passionate about providing our employees with a supportive and engaging environment. As well as ongoing development and training, we offer our employees a wide range of benefits; 

When you become part of the HJE Family, these are some of the benefits you will receive:
