Corporate Fundraising
- Design and implement a new corporate fundraising strategy
- Lead the identification and prioritisation of strategic corporate opportunities.

- Develop the necessary infrastructure (e.g. pipeline management, prospecting systems) for long-term corporate fundraising success.
Major Donor Support
- Act as a senior partner to the CEO in managing and stewarding major donors.
- Ensure the department provides the research, briefing, and coordination required to support a best-in-class major donor experience.
Legacy Community Fundraising
- Provide oversight and continuity for a limited number of legacy community events, ensuring they are delivered with appropriate resource and quality.
- Work with the Fundraising & Events Manager to assess the future viability of these events and how they may integrate with or exit from the broader fundraising strategy.
- Maintain key relationships with mosque and school partners to preserve goodwill and support transitional planning.
Team Leadership
- Line manage the Fundraising & Events Manager, providing coaching, strategic direction, and performance support.
- Ensure the team structure remains fit for purpose as event formats, income goals, and capacity evolve.
- Delegate operational oversight of individual events and activities while maintaining accountability for departmental outcomes.
Cross-Organisational Leadership
- Represent fundraising and events at the senior leadership level, contributing to organisational strategy and decision-making.
- Foster a culture of collaboration and continuous improvement across teams.

- Experience supporting major donor programmes or working in close partnership with a CEO or Director-level fundraiser.
- Familiarity with charity CRMs and performance reporting tools.
- Experience working within a faith-informed or values-driven organisation.
Working Culture:
We are a remote-first organisation. This role offers flexibility in working hours and location, with occasional UK travel required for key events and team meetings. You’ll be part of a purpose-driven leadership team committed to creativity, integrity, and delivering real-world impact.
Employment Type: Permanent, Full-Time
Location: Remote Working
Reports to: CEO
Salary: £48,000 – £54,000, dependent on experience
