Contract: Full-time

About Us

We are building something unprecedented.

The Waqf Fund for Muslim Education is a groundbreaking new initiative with a bold vision: to establish the best schools, with the best teachers, providing the best education, producing the next generation of exceptional leaders, entrepreneurs, educators, and public servants.

Rooted in the Islamic tradition of Waqf (endowment), this fund will be a perpetual source of investment into the education and future of our children, empowering them to serve humanity with excellence, integrity, and purpose.

This is not just a fundraising role. This is your opportunity to help lay the foundation of an educational legacy that will echo for generations to come 

The Role

As our Fundraising Manager, you will be the driving force behind developing, launching, and delivering a dynamic fundraising strategy to secure significant and sustainable support for the Waqf Fund.

Your role will combine strategic thinking with hands-on delivery from engaging high-net-worth donors and institutional funders, to inspiring grassroots giving from communities who believe in the transformative power of education.

Key Responsibilities

• Strategy & Planning – Develop and implement a multi-year fundraising strategy aligned with the Fund’s mission and values.
• Major Donor Engagement – Identify, cultivate, and steward high-value donors and partners, building long-term, trust-based relationships.
• Community Fundraising – Mobilise grassroots support across the UK Muslim community, creating campaigns that inspire giving at every level.
• Institutional Funding – Explore and secure grants, sponsorships, and partnerships from trusts, foundations, and corporate supporters.
• Events & Campaigns – Design and deliver fundraising events, both in-person and digital, that engage and inspire.
• Waqf Awareness – Champion and educate donors on the concept of Waqf as a sustainable, faith-driven model for impact.
• Impact Reporting – Work with the leadership team to demonstrate the difference donor support is making, through compelling storytelling and data.

About You

We’re looking for someone with a rare combination of heart and hustle. You will:

• Have a proven track record in fundraising, business development, or sales, ideally in the charity or education sector.
• Understand the values and motivations of Muslim donors, with sensitivity to cultural and faith contexts.
• Be a confident communicator, able to inspire at a boardroom table and from the mosque pulpit.
• Have experience in building a fundraising function from scratch (preferred but not essential).
• Be highly organised, results-driven, and not afraid to roll up your sleeves.
• Share our vision for transforming education and believe deeply in the power of giving for lasting change.

What We Offer

• A chance to be part of a historic, first-of-its-kind initiative in Muslim education.
• The opportunity to shape and grow a pioneering fundraising programme from the ground up.
• Flexible working arrangements and a supportive, mission-driven team.
• A role where your work will leave a lasting legacy for generations.

How to Apply:
Send your CV and a covering letter outlining your passion for this role and how your experience aligns with our vision.

A fantastic opportunity to join a small but growing team of committed staff working to support children with brain tumours and their families.

Leading our T&F applications, you will have a deep-understanding of the trusts and foundations (as well as corporate foundations) landscape and you will have experience of working with Senior Management Teams to ensure successful applications for larger grants (£20k+).  You will have proven success in securing multi-year funding and building healthy pipelines with the skills to write compelling and evidence-based applications and reports.
