The University

Our University has a proud history of philanthropy stretching back to its foundation in 1900.  With a clear vision to change the lives of the people of Birmingham, Joseph Chamberlain raised the funds required to build the University from citizens and corporations based locally and around the globe. Since then philanthropy has continued to play an important role in shaping the University. Having closed the Circles of Influence Campaign in 2015, which raised £193 million, making it the largest HE fundraising campaign outside Oxbridge and London, we have chosen to launch another, Birmingham in Action.  This is the fifth largest fundraising campaign in the modern history of UK Higher Education.

The University has global reach, including several partnerships with other leading universities around the world, and is grounded in its local community, having opened the first fully comprehensive University secondary school in the country in 2015.  It is also an innovative institution, being the first University to incorporate a Medical School, the first to create a students’ union, and the first to offer a women’s hall of residence.  We are an ambitious and successful research-intensive University (one of the top 100 research-led universities globally) and have produced 11 Nobel Prize winners, including three who received their awards in 2016.  

Our student body is one of the largest and most diverse in the UK. Our students come from nearly 150 countries and our flagship outreach programmes mean that almost 25% of our student population come from disadvantaged backgrounds, one of the highest proportions in the UK.  

The Office

The Development and Alumni Relations Office (DARO) exists to support this academic and student community by engaging, inspiring, and celebrating alumni, individuals, and charitable funders who give their money, time, and networks to support the University’s strategic priorities.  The Office, which comprises nearly 60 staff across four teams, is focused on fundraising and volunteering from alumni and individuals who are passionate about our five current campaign themes: everyone getting an education; treating and preventing cancer; families fleeing war, violence and famine; young people’s mental health; and protecting our planet.

The campaign has been planned, the framework created; it is unique and hugely ambitious, and will see Birmingham become one of the leading fundraising and volunteering universities in the world.  

The Role

We are now looking for an Associate Director of Fundraising to maximise our enormous income generation potential; coach, nurture and challenge the well-established fundraising team; and deliver a bold and innovative strategy to support this exciting campaign, raising significant gifts yourself as you do.

Corpus Christi College aims to appoint an outstanding individual to the post of Director of Development and Alumni Relations. Corpus is the sixth oldest college in the University of Cambridge and one of the smallest, with 300 undergraduate and 200 postgraduate students, 60 Fellows and 120 staff. Corpus is known for its friendly atmosphere and its long tradition of academic excellence.

The Director of Development and Alumni Relations has overall responsibility for building, maintaining and enhancing the relations between the College and its five thousand alumni, its supporters, and other potential benefactors. The Director will take the lead in designing and implementing the College’s development strategy, and will manage the work of the Development Office. Priorities will include: developing and refreshing the pool of individual prospects; engaging with recent graduates and overseas alumni; and spearheading a major fund-raising campaign focused on widening participation and the provision of bursaries and studentships.  The appointee will be elected a Fellow of the College, reflecting the seniority and significance of the post.

Candidates will be confident, outgoing and sociable, with the ability to relate to different audiences. They will be driven and able to demonstrate outstanding leadership, interpersonal, diplomatic, negotiation and communication skills. They should also be able to evidence success in establishing and achieving ambitious fund-raising targets.

Felsted School seeks to appoint an outstanding and experienced Development Director to build upon the fundraising achievements to date and set an ambitious strategy to take the School’s philanthropic endeavours to the next level and beyond. This is a strategic, senior leadership role and an important appointment for the School.

Felsted is a leading day and boarding independent school based in a stunning rural village campus in North Essex. Founded in 1564, Felsted, provides an exceptional holistic education to approximately 1100 boys and girls, aged four to eighteen. It celebrated its 450th anniversary in 2014, one of only a handful of schools in the country that have claimed this historic milestone, an occasion that was marked by a visit by Queen Elizabeth and the Duke of Edinburgh. This year in 2020, Felsted celebrates 50 years of co-education.

Felsted has been very fortunate to have many generous benefactors across the years, and these have made a significant difference to its ability to grow and develop. It has strong links with its alumni and an active Old Felstedian society. The School now looks to build upon and grow community engagement and philanthropic income at all levels. The Development Director will be responsible for devising and implementing a clear strategy to deliver a significant step-change in the School’s development activities. There is a strong degree of engagement and support for the Development function from the School’s Board of Governors and Senior Leadership Team.

Reporting directly to the Headmaster – and working closely with the new Chairman of Governors – the Development Director will lead and grow a team in all aspects of fundraising and alumni relations. This will include raising funds for transformational bursaries, that will enable more children from all backgrounds to benefit from all that Felsted School can provide. There are also a number of key capital priorities for the School, which would present the opportunity for some creative campaigns.

The ideal candidate will be an accomplished leader in a comparable organisation with a track record of success in securing philanthropic gifts of six figures and above. They will be adept at building strong, effective relationships across a wide constituency, and will have a passion for the transformational impact of education. Above all, they will be be an outstanding ambassador for the School and all it wants to achieve in the future. 

This is an exciting and career-defining opportunity for a commensurate fundraiser to make their mark, achieving a well-structured and high-performing operation that will deliver significant income for the School over the coming years.

An excellent remuneration package is offered for this role, reflecting the seniority and significance of the position.

The Haberdashers’ Aske’s Boys School and Haberdashers’ Aske’s School for Girls are two of the eleven schools of the Worshipful Company of Haberdashers. They share a rich history, tracing their roots back to the 17th Century when their founder, Robert Aske, established the principles that guide them to this day – the Schools give talented and ambitious young people, irrespective of background, the opportunities they need to succeed in life. The Schools strive to work together, offering the best of single-sex education in a co-educational environment. 

With a shared vision, mission, and strategy for the future, it is an exciting time to become a part of the Habs community. In September 2019 the Schools’ published their Strategy for 2030, committing the Schools to work more closely together and to do more to honour the philanthropic legacy of their founder Robert Aske. The new role of Director of Development will play a key part in this objective.

Reporting jointly to the Heads of the Schools, the post-holder will contribute to the strategy by bringing together two separate development and alumni teams to create a well-structured and high-performing operation that will deliver significant income for both Schools over the coming years. A recently conducted external review of fundraising and development has identified the potential for the Boys’ School to launch a multi-million pound fundraising campaign. This will include raising funds for transformational bursaries that will enable children from all backgrounds to benefit from all that the Haberdashers’ Aske’s Boys School can provide. The Director of Development will also look at launching an equivalent campaign for the Girls’ School.

The ideal candidate will be a commensurate and experienced fundraiser who can recognise the opportunities and challenges associated with the role. They will have had success securing gifts of six figures and above, and will be adept at building strong, effective relationships not only within their own team but across the School communities; from parents and alumni to academic and support staff at all levels. As the two Development and Alumni teams are brought together, they will manage this process with sensitivity, tact and diplomacy. The Director of Development will liaise closely with the Senior Leadership Teams across both Schools as a senior member of staff and will keep them informed of fundraising developments.

Women for Refugee Women is an organisation committed to challenging the injustices experienced by women and children who have sought asylum in the UK. Our overarching vision is that women who seek asylum should be able to live in safety, dignity and liberty.

We currently work in three main ways: to empower refugee women to tell their own stories; to communicate the experiences of refugee women to wide audiences, and to advocate for policy change and a fairer asylum process.

In what has been an extremely challenging year, we have continued to support asylum-seeking and refugee women, in London and in partnership with groups across England and Wales, and campaign against unlawful detention, the impact of destitution, and for a fairer asylum system. In part because of a generous legacy left to us by a committed volunteer, and the support from our funders, we have been able to keep going through the COVID crisis and support other grassroots organisations to continue their vital work.

The Director we are looking for will share our values of human rights, anti-racism and intersectional feminism and bring a commitment to empowering women to communicate their own experiences.  Your remit will be to lead an organisation in a controversial policy area with confidence and calmness while holding a vision of radical change. You will lead and support a team of experienced and passionate professionals, all of whom bring unquestionable commitment to this cause.

Who you are, your values, your experience and your commitment to our mission is what we are interested in first and foremost and we look forward to hearing from you.  Whatever your professional and life experience background, you will be the emotionally intelligent leader who is able to influence and engage with stakeholders, government, media, funding bodies and existing and future partners.

Women for Refugee Women is committed to diversity and inclusion in its workforce. We seek to attract applications from the widest possible talent pool and to appoint on ability irrespective of race, religion, age, disability (including hidden disabilities), marital/civil partnership status, sex, gender identity, or sexual orientation. We particularly welcome applications from women with a refugee background with lived experience of the issues we’re tackling who can lead and influence change for the women we serve.

Overview:

Women for Women International works in some of the most dangerous places to be a woman. We serve women survivors of war in conflict and post-conflict areas around the world in 8 countries including Afghanistan, Iraq, Eastern Congo, and Northern Nigeria. Our core belief is that stronger women build stronger nations; and with access to knowledge, resources, and a support network, a woman rebuilds her life and improves her community.

Our model works and we have the data to prove it. In our 26-year history, Women for Women International has reached over half a million women. The women we work with across 3 continents earn just $0.81 a day when we enroll them. At graduation, it’s $2.11, nearly tripled.

Our impact goes beyond income. The number of women who say at least one household member went to sleep hungry in the last four weeks has gone from 18% to 5%. And more women say they speak out against women's abuse: 26% report having publicly spoken in the last 6 months against physically abusing women.

When women have the right tools, they realize the power within themselves to transform their lives, their families, their communities, and finally their entire nations.

Purpose:

Women for Women International has the ambition to dramatically increase grant funding to support programming that has been proven to be transformative for marginalized women survivors of war in fragile and conflict affected countries. The Director of Global Business Development will collaboratively weave together existing strategies at national and regional level into a comprehensive Global Business Development Strategy that can guide business development across the geographic footprint of the organization. This position will be responsible to ensure that the strategy is adaptive to a dynamic and sometimes disruptive global context, supporting the global organization to build the relationships and partnerships needed for global BDU staff and staff in county to go after the most strategic opportunities. This position is responsible to ensure that the Global Board of Directors and the Executive Leadership Team remains informed of progress towards targets and engaged, as appropriate or advantageous, in BDU activity.

The global organization has strong teams that carry forward business development from the first identification of a prospect all the way through to the final grant report. This position is envisioned to help ensure that all the teams and the processes continue to work smoothly, efficiently and effectively. Given an ambitious growth strategy, a high volume of opportunities, proposals and activity, the ideal applicant will also have demonstrated experience in contributing to the nuts and bolts of successful proposals and the willingness to take part in any part of the process to ensure success.
