The Sandhurst Trust - an extraordinary community.
The Royal Military Academy Sandhurst has shaped leaders since 1802. Spanning heads of state, generals, ministers, diplomats and captains of industry – the Sandhurst alumni community is remarkable.
The Sandhurst Trust is the Academy’s independent charitable foundation and is responsible for securing philanthropic support for the Academy and its community, supporting expansion, innovation and initiatives that government funding alone cannot sustain.
The Trust is at an inflection point. With new leadership and momentum, we are looking for exceptional development professionals to help build a once-in-a-generation philanthropic programme for an institution whose purpose has never felt more urgent.

As Content & Communications Manager, you will develop a communications plan and shape the way the Trust connects with its global alumni community, makes the case for support, and tells the story of its impact to donors, partners, and prospects.
Working closely with the CEO and Director of Alumni Engagement and Regular Giving, you will lead the development of high-quality content across the full fundraising lifecycle, from articulating a compelling Case for Support and crafting tailored donor materials, to designing campaigns that drive regular giving participation and ensuring every event is supported by communications that reinforce engagement and stewardship.
This is a role for a creative, audience-focused communicator who understands how great storytelling drives philanthropic action. You will own all communications channels, email, web, social and beyond, and act as the guardian of the Trust's tone, brand and editorial standards, ensuring that everything produced reflects the heritage, quality and ambition of one of Britain's most storied institutions.
