About The Role

This is an opportunity to take real ownership of a growing philanthropy programme and shape how mid-value fundraising develops at the Royal British Legion. We’re looking for someone who understands how to build strong donor relationships, spot opportunities for growth, and create the kind of supporter experience that keeps people engaged long term. Working closely with the Head of Trusts and Philanthropy, you’ll lead on developing and delivering the Mid Value strategy, helping to grow income, strengthen retention, and build a sustainable pipeline of future major donors and legacy supporters. This is a role for someone who enjoys balancing strategy with hands on relationship management and wants the freedom to bring new ideas to the table.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

You’ll manage and grow a portfolio of supporters through thoughtful stewardship, tailored communications, events and meaningful engagement opportunities, while also using data and insight to make informed decisions about where the biggest opportunities sit. We’re looking for someone commercially minded, organised and confident working with high value supporters and senior stakeholders alike.

This role would suit an experienced relationship fundraiser who is motivated by building something with long-term potential and who enjoys working in a collaborative, ambitious environment. You’ll need strong communication skills, excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities while maintaining a high standard of donor care. In return, you’ll join a well established organisation with a respected fundraising team, hybrid working, and the chance to play a key role in shaping the future of philanthropy fundraising at the Royal British Legion.

Fundraising sits at the heart of The Royal British Legion’s 10-year strategy, and we’re investing in the people, skills and ideas that will drive growth and strengthen our support for the Armed Forces community. As one of the UK’s most trusted and recognisable charities, we have the reach and ambition to make a real difference, and this is your chance to be part of it. Our Fundraising portfolio is broad and dynamic, spanning major corporate partnerships to our sector leading charity Lottery.
