Salary: circa £80,000 to £90,000
Location: Hybrid/South Kensington and White City (with travel to other Imperial campuses/meetings as required).
This role is based at Imperial’s White City campus. This role is a hybrid role, and the post holder will normally be expected to work 60% of their time onsite or out on university business.
Imperial College London seeks an accomplished and strategic development professional for the position of Deputy Director of Global Development, Asia – a key position as we prepare to launch our first university-wide fundraising and alumni engagement campaign.
Imperial is one of the world’s great universities, ranked second globally and first in the UK and Europe. Our excellence in research and education is matched by our commitment to solving global challenges - from climate resilience and global health to transformative technologies and sustainable innovation.
As a member of the Principal Gifts and Global team, you will lead our development efforts across Asia and also oversee fundraising in the Middle East and Africa. Working closely with colleagues in Advancement and in partnership with senior academic and university leadership, you will shape and deliver the College’s philanthropic strategy in these regions. The role will be central to cultivating major philanthropic relationships, supporting regional engagement for Imperial’s President and senior representatives, and contributing to the wider success of our global campaign.
Reporting to the Director of Development: Principal Gifts and Global and working closely with senior leadership across the university and the Advancement Division, you will lead a high-performing team focused on principal gifts and international development. You will also serve as the strategic lead for Asia, while overseeing development efforts in the Middle East and Africa.
This is a unique opportunity to shape and lead our engagement with high-net-worth individuals and stakeholders across these regions, connecting them to Imperial’s world-leading research and innovation ecosystem.
This position is an opportunity for an experienced fundraiser with international vision, deep cultural awareness, and a strong record of securing significant gifts. The role will require diplomacy, strategic insight, and the ability to operate effectively within a complex global institution. Experience working across Asia and fluency in one or more Asian languages would be advantageous.
If you share our belief in the transformative potential of STEMB and are inspired by the chance to help deliver lasting global impact through education and research, we encourage you to consider this unique opportunity.
