Job description

The Development and Alumni Office (DARO) exists to support the University of Birmingham's academic and student community by engaging, inspiring, and celebrating alumni, individuals, and charitable funders who give their money, time, and networks to support the University’s strategic priorities. The Office, which is comprised of five teams, is focused on fundraising and volunteering from alumni, organisations and individuals who are passionate about changing lives, through funding various research projects, supporting student bursaries, mentoring students, and providing internships, as well as providing a versatile programme of engagement opportunities for our global alumni community.

As part of an award-winning team, you will work with our Head of Legacies and Endowments and Legacy and Endowment Officer to generate new gifts to the University and to care for our existing donors. The Legacy and In Memory Officer role is your opportunity to join our excellent team at an exciting time during our 125th anniversary year as a University. You will be passionate about the impact the University’s teaching and research has on the world and have enthusiasm for working in higher education fundraising and helping the University achieve its charitable objectives. You will be an excellent communicator, willing to be in an external facing role, speaking regularly with our supporters, and highly organised, thriving in a fast-paced working environment. 

Legacy gifts, or gifts in wills, play a major part in supporting both students and research and you will require a broad skillset but a relationship centred approach to take on this varied role in which you will be well supported with training and development. We are ambitious to grow our legacy and in memory programmes substantially in the coming years and would relish your passion and enthusiasm to help us do that. 

We believe there is no such thing as a typical member of staff and that diversity is a source of strength that underpins the exchange of ideas, innovation, and debate. We warmly welcome people from all backgrounds and are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where diversity is at the heart of who and what we are, and how we work.

Supporting our people to achieve a healthy work/life balance is important both to our employees and to the success of the University and, depending on the role, we offer a variety of flexible working arrangements. We therefore welcome discussions on all forms of flexible working. In addition, you will receive a generous package of benefits including 40 days paid holiday a year, one paid day a year for volunteering, occupational sick pay, and a pension scheme.
