About the Britain Palestine Project

The Britain Palestine Project (BPP) is a UK-based Scottish registered charity working for peace with justice, security, and equal rights for Israelis and Palestinians. Rooted in the belief that Britain’s historic and ongoing responsibilities in Palestine must be acknowledged and addressed, BPP promotes informed public debate, legally grounded advocacy, and inclusive educational programming that connects history, law, and civic engagement.

Our mission is to ensure that Palestine is part of Britain’s national conversation—not just as a foreign policy issue, but as a historical and moral responsibility that resonates with communities across the UK.

What We Do

BPP’s work is organised into two core thematic workstreams and two delivery workstreams:

1. Advocacy and Law
   Engaging UK policymakers through strategic briefings, a flagship Parliamentary Fellowship, international law podcasts, and targeted constituency events.
2. Education and History
   Bringing Britain’s past and present role in Palestine into classrooms and public debate through our schools programme, Essay Competition, digital history projects, films, and webinars.
3. Communications
   Amplifying impact across platforms—Substack, social media, press outreach, and content creation—shaping the public narrative with clarity and authority.
4. Fundraising and Organisational Development
   Strengthening BPP’s core capacity and sustainability through donor stewardship, Middle East engagement, and systems building.

Why This Role Matters

BPP is in a period of growth and transition, evolving from a volunteer-led initiative into a professionally structured charity.

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

Desirable 

• 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.
