Person specification

We’re looking for an exceptional fundraiser who can turn opportunities into income and relationships into lasting partnerships. With a strong track record of securing major funding from businesses, trusts and foundations, you’ll combine strategic vision with hands-on delivery, building influential networks, crafting compelling bids, managing budgets and projects, and overseeing high-impact events that help drive our mission forward.

Final interviews will take place in the week commencing 26 October

Closing date: 23:59 on Sunday 11 October

About Us

We are a high impact, specialist literacy charity supporting the children who need the most help to close their literacy gap. The attainment gap is now the widest it has been for a decade, and early, high quality literacy intervention is essential to give children from disadvantaged backgrounds the opportunity to make the most of their full potential.

Our specially recruited and trained tutors equip children with all the foundational literacy skills, not just reading but also comprehension, writing, listening and speaking. We achieve significant outcomes: children catch up to where they should be and grow in confidence and resilience, able to step ahead and engage with learning and life.

With a clear focus on our specialist literacy intervention work, the charity has doubled in size over recent years, and we are now planning for the next stage of our growth. Funding is key, and we are looking to appoint a Director of Funding Development to take our fundraising to the next level.

The Opportunity

This is a newly created senior management role reporting directly to the CEO. We see it as critical to our future fundraising success and to the overall development of the charity.

This is a role for a new business ‘seeker’: we need a commercially minded individual with a strong track record of securing new, significant funding opportunities; proactive and creative prospecting; building a credible pipeline; and setting and meeting ambitious targets.

As well as being able to confidently represent the charity and evidence significant relationship-building skills across all funding streams, the successful candidate will work purposefully and collaboratively with senior management colleagues and our Trustee Board, and will have line management responsibility for the fundraising team.

We are looking for someone who can become part of our longer-term fundraising vision on a permanent basis, helping to shape and deliver sustainable growth. We recognise, however, that the right person may be looking for an interim opportunity, therefore we are also open to a shorter-term appointment for a candidate who can deliver a significant, measurable impact in that time.

What You Will Do

• Develop and implement an overarching income generation strategy, setting ambitious annual and 3-year fundraising targets

• Deliver and convert new, significant funding opportunities across corporates, trusts and foundations, and high net worth individuals

• Build and proactively manage a realistic pipeline of potentially transformational funders

• Develop compelling bids and proposals that accurately reflect the charity’s core messaging and delivery priorities

• Provide strong direction and line management to other team members across all funding streams

• Work closely with the CEO on the development of a robust, long-term funding plan

• Effectively represent the charity at external events, meetings and conferences

What We Are Looking For

You will bring:

• Senior fundraising experience with a proven track record of securing significant, transformational funding, not necessarily from a charity background

• Experience across multiple funding streams, in particular high value trusts and foundations, corporates and major donors

• A proactive, creative and ambitious approach to prospect identification and relationship development

• Confident and effective communication skills, being able to represent the charity credibly at the highest levels

• Strong writing skills, with the ability to produce nuanced, compelling and tailored proposals

• Experience of line managing a fundraising team

• A collaborative and positive outlook, with the resilience to thrive in a growing organisation

An interest in education, literacy, and equality of opportunity is highly desirable, as is an existing network of high-level funder contacts.

Prospex is a well-established youth charity celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. We are deeply embedded within the local community and are recognised for our expertise in supporting vulnerable children and young people across Islington. Our experienced and committed team delivers high-quality youth work that helps young people develop confidence, resilience and positive futures.

Over the past seven years, we have successfully strengthened and diversified our income base. Our funding comes from a broad range of sources, including charitable trusts and foundations, statutory grants and contracts, individual donors, community fundraising activities and, increasingly, corporate supporters. This diversified approach has helped us build financial stability and continue responding to local need.

This new role presents an exciting opportunity to build on these foundations and take our fundraising to the next level. The focus of our income generation will remain with successfully securing income from trusts and statutory sources however there is also potential to increase income across all funding streams. We see particular potential for growth in individual giving, major donors and corporate partnerships. The successful candidate will have the opportunity to shape and develop all these areas, making a lasting contribution to the charity's future sustainability and impact.

Prospex is a fantastic organisation to work for, with a strong sense of purpose and a genuine commitment to improving the lives of local young people. We have a supportive, collaborative culture where staff and trustees work closely together and recognise that fundraising is everyone's responsibility.

We are looking for the successful candidate to start around November 2026. This will allow for time to be spent with the current Business Development Manager. 

This is an exciting opportunity for a senior fundraising professional who combines strategic thinking with excellent relationship-building skills and a passion for making a tangible difference.

The Fundraising Manager will lead on the development and growth of several key income streams, including:

• Major Donors
• Corporate Partnerships and Giving
• Regular Giving
• Gifts in Wills (Legacies)

Working in close partnership with SUDEP Action's other Fundraising Manager (who oversees Community fundraising, Trusts and Grants and other aspects of our in-memory giving), the postholder will also share responsibility for the development, delivery and performance of wider fundraising activity across the charity.

A significant aspect of this role will involve re-engaging existing high-value supporters while identifying and cultivating new prospects. The ideal candidate will be confident networking, opening doors, building meaningful relationships and inspiring people to support a cause that may be unfamiliar to them.

The postholder will work collaboratively with colleagues across the organisation, including fundraising colleagues, the CEO, and wider management team, drawing upon their expertise to develop effective fundraising plans, test assumptions and ensure the charity is represented professionally, authentically and consistently.

Given the nature of SUDEP Action's work, the role also requires sensitivity, empathy and the ability to engage thoughtfully with people affected by epilepsy and bereavement.
