Foundation for Jewish Heritage

Head of Development

£60,000

Remote but with access to London for a weekly meeting one day per week

Full-time

Permanent

The Foundation for Jewish Heritage is the UK’s only dedicated organisation focused on preserving and activating Jewish built heritage as a catalyst for education, culture, memory and community renewal.

Over the past decade, the Foundation has grown from a small specialist charity into a recognised leader in the field of Jewish built heritage. It has secured major support for nationally significant projects, including a £6 million flagship heritage project supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Welsh Government, Garfield Weston, Wolfson and Rothschild.

The Foundation is now entering an important new phase. Alongside major project delivery, it is taking on a wider UK role, supporting communities and historic synagogues across the country, including places such as Liverpool, Bradford, Leicester, Brighton and Merthyr Tydfil. It is also developing European partnerships, particularly in countries such as Poland and Germany, and strengthening relationships with North American and Canadian supporters.

The Foundation’s work is about more than saving buildings. Historic synagogues and heritage sites are gateways into the stories of Jewish life, identity, migration, civic contribution and cultural memory. They offer a powerful way of engaging Jewish and wider audiences with the richness and complexity of Jewish history in Britain and across Europe.

The Foundation has reached a point where its fundraising structure needs to match the scale of its ambition.

Until now, much of the fundraising has been led directly by the Chief Executive, supported by trustees, consultants and external bid writers. This has delivered significant success, particularly around major heritage projects and institutional funders. However, the organisation now needs a more structured, proactive and relationship-led fundraising function.

The Head of Development will work closely with the Chief Executive, trustees and a new Fundraising Committee to broaden the donor base, strengthen major relationships, develop new income streams, and ensure that the Foundation is no longer dependent on a small number of individuals or on the Chief Executive holding most fundraising relationships personally.

This is not simply a fundraising support post. It is a strategic development role for someone who can combine relationship building, major donor fundraising, compelling written communication, careful stewardship and long-term pipeline management.

The successful candidate will help turn the Foundation’s growing profile into sustained philanthropic support.

An exciting moment to join us

 YMCA England & Wales is entering one of the most exciting chapters in its fundraising history, launching our ambition to create 10,000 new homes for young people by 2030. Working alongside local YMCAs, we will support the development of new accommodation across the country, helping young people move towards independence.  This role sits at the heart of that ambition.

We seek a dynamic charity fundraiser to lead the development of new high-value corporate partnerships. This role offers an exceptional career opportunity to shape and deliver the next phase of our national corporate fundraising ambition, building on a strong foundation of award-winning work.  Late in 2025 our Corporate Partnerships team was recognised at the Corporate Engagement Awards with multiple awards.  During the early months of 2026 the ground-work for our multi-year strategy has been laid: The 10,000 Homes Fund is our flagship proposition.  Now is the time to execute.

About the role

As Senior Fundraising Manager, you will play a crucial role in securing new revenue of significant scale and impact. You will deliver new business; identifying, cultivating, and closing significant corporate relationships.  You will design compelling partnership propositions, manage high-level external engagement, and ensure alignment with YMCA’s mission and strategic priorities.

This is a senior position with scope to influence the direction of YMCA’s corporate fundraising strategy and the culture of the wider team. You will provide leadership and guidance to your team, while also contributing to a collaborative and ambitious environment across fundraising and wider organisation.

About you

The successful candidate will be an experienced fundraiser with demonstrable results in winning new corporate partnerships. You are probably the top performer at your current charity, can evidence multiple six figure successes and are eager to take the next step in your career by moving to a strategic, senior role. You will be motivated by the opportunity to shape a growing programme, work with high-profile brands, and create opportunities that deliver lasting change for young people and communities across England and Wales.

Why join us now

YMCA is the oldest and largest youth charity in the world, serving communities across England and Wales every day. The fundraising team is geared up for success, the strategy is set, the proposition is proven, and the results are already coming in. The plan now is to hire the talent to take this momentum to the next level.

YMCA England & Wales is committed to equality and valuing diversity. We welcome applications from all backgrounds.

Our recruitment process is anonymised and candidates' names are hidden. We welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds.

About The Harrow Club
The Harrow Club is a longstanding and highly respected youth charity working at the heart of some of West London's most disadvantaged communities. For more than 140 years, the organisation has championed local young people, providing universal youth clubs alongside targeted specialist support for those aged 10-21 who need it most.

Each week, the organisation works with up to 500 young people across six youth club sites and a wide range of targeted interventions spanning education, wellbeing, employability and positive life choices. Their model is rooted in trusted relationships, high-quality programmes, and early intervention - helping young people grow in confidence, overcome disadvantage, and move toward a positive future.

About the Role
This is a strategic and hands-on opportunity to lead and shape The Harrow Club's fundraising and communications activity. You'll drive sustainable income growth, raise the charity's profile, and ensure its story is told with clarity, conviction and heart.
This role will suit someone with ambition, emotional intelligence and a strong sense of purpose - someone excited by the chance to build something meaningful and see their work directly translate into better outcomes for young people.

You will elevate the charity's profile through impactful campaigns, events and content that bring the Harrow Club's mission to life.

About you
We're looking for a values-driven fundraiser with a strong track record of securing income across trusts, corporates, major donors and/or foundations. A skilled communicator with excellent writing and relationship-building abilities, you're confident managing multiple projects and leading people to do their best work.
