We are looking for an experienced fundraiser, to lead on fundraising in the Department of Physics, as part of the friendly team working across the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences (MPLS) Division.
The Department of Physics is one of the top five departments in the world. Our academics observe the wonders of the Universe from the very big to the very small: from seeking planets with the potential for life outside the solar system, to undertaking some of the most delicate experiments in quantum physics.

You will work closely with the Head of Physics, as well as some of the most inspiring scientists in the world, and will forge relationships with existing and new donors to the department. While an interest in science is essential, you do not need to be a Physics graduate, just an enthusiast for knowledge.
About you:
You are an experienced development professional with a strong track record of securing major gifts, a confident approach and the ability to think creatively. You will lead on major gift fundraising (£100k-£1m+) working with a range of donors (corporates, trusts and individuals). The department has a well-established alumni programme and a very active and supportive development board that you will work closely with.

- Cycle loan scheme to encourage sustainable commuting
- Discounted bus and transit travel
In addition, you will have access to a vibrant community with social groups and sports clubs fostering an inclusive atmosphere.

About World Child Cancer
Most childhood cancers are curable. We know this because survival rates in the UK and Europe regularly top 80%. But for children in low and middle-income countries, the prognosis is bleak with their chance of survival falling to 20%.
The solution? It already exists. The challenge is making sure that every child gets the diagnosis, treatment and care they need. Yet in many countries, public and professional awareness of childhood cancer is dangerously low. Opportunities for early diagnosis are missed. Referrals are delayed. And there are not enough health workers with the specialist skills to diagnose and treat the disease.
It is children and families that pay the price.
Determined to balance this inequality, World Child Cancer works with local, regional, and international partners in some of the world’s poorest countries to improve: Treatment, early diagnosis, family support and advocacy.
Created in 2007, World Child Cancer is a small yet fast-growing, ambitious international charity.

Encompass is a local charity based in and covering North Northamptonshire. The charity supports those facing poverty, homelessness and addiction, through the delivery of multiple services including two homeless accommodations, a rehab and aftercare, multiple foodbanks and a soon to be opened day centre.
With around 30 staff and nearly 100 volunteers across all the projects, this role is responsible for leading the people to deliver compassionate, responsive and impactful services. The post holder will help build and implement the strategic direction of Encompass, working with the Board of Trustees to fulfil its strategic and governance duties.
Encompass has grown significantly in the last five years. We began as a Christian organisation, we retain the ethos and embrace all faiths or none. The next few years are about achieving our priorities according to our strategic plan including another rehab and the opening of our Day Centre. The role will focus on ensuring the services being delivered are to a high standard, that the information and the way we collect information is effective and efficient, and that the staff have the resources and motivations to robustly deliver high quality services.
Encompass has a positive and inclusive approach to working with those with lived experience, whether that is through the development and improvement of services or supporting individuals to enter into volunteer work or paid employment within the Charity.
The post holder will be a compassionate, decisive and collaborative individual who will enjoy working with others to achieve the best possible service for those who are disadvantaged. They will welcome constructive feedback from staff, will seek the thoughts of others and will utilise the expertise within the staff team to achieve this.
The post holder will utilise their own skills to confidently work with others, building partnerships and nurturing existing ones. They will need to talk to funders, fill in applications for grants and improve the resources that are available to the charity. They will work closely with the Board to report and identify the risks to the charity and think creatively and curiously about solutions. They will not be afraid to try and will question the status quo.
Encompass is lucky to have a fabulous team of staff and volunteers, all of whom have different skills, experiences and knowledge. We are dedicated to drawing on those with lived experience to deliver our services, and the post holder needs to be committed to upholding this and improving it further. They need to be willing to draw on others’ experiences that are unfamiliar or unexpected to them and utilise this knowledge. They must be able to be sensitive around exploring the experiences of others and not taking for granted that one individual will have the same experience as someone else.
Encompass operates in a varied, unpredictable and ambiguous environment: we work with clients who are chaotic and vulnerable, and the questions that are posed are often not clear cut. The post holder will need to be confident making decisions or taking action on something with limited information, and be comfortable with things changing on a day-to-day basis and be willing to get stuck in.
We welcome applications from people who might not tick every box in the person specification, but who have some wonderful people skills, other experiences such as lived experience or who have worked in an environment similar to that described above.
