This is a unique opportunity for an ambitious Development professional to join the Latymer Foundation in this important Senior Management role. With the full backing of the Head, Governors and the Latymer community, and using the momentum of recent campaign success and anniversary celebrations, the new Director of Development will be ideally placed to draw up a roadmap for the fundraising and alumni engagement strategy for the next decade.
