Imagine being part of an organisation whose common purpose is to help those who are severely impacted by mental illness. Here at Rethink Mental Illness and Mental Health UK we are a passionate group of people and are driven to make a difference.
We are able to make that difference due to generous donations from our wonderful supporters and we wouldn’t be able to deliver the diverse services that we do, without them. Which is why philanthropy has been identified as a new and lucrative income stream for Mental Health UK and Rethink Mental Illness, through the research completed by Bill Bruty and his team.
We know that growing our philanthropy programme will actively help us reach more people who need help and support. We believe that everyone should be treated with respect and dignity – and that’s why equity is one of our core values. We understand the importance of drawing on the expertise, unique perspectives and lived experience of our people – regardless of who they are or their background – to help us become an inclusive and anti-racist employer, campaigning organisation and service provider that reflects the diverse communities we support as a leading mental health charity.
To take us on our new and exciting journey, we are looking for an experienced Head of Philanthropy to join our passionate team of fundraisers. The successful person will develop and implement an effective Philanthropy fundraising strategy for both organisations, that supports income growth and ensures that we deepen our relationships with existing donors and proactively engage new supporters.
You will need exceptional relationship management skills as you work collaboratively across Fundraising, Partnerships, Senior Leadership and the wider organisations. You will also be a strong and creative communicator with excellent verbal and written skills, which will allow you to develop compelling proposals, create memorable engagement opportunities and produce detailed reports for donors and prospects.
So, if you are a proactive Philanthropy professional who is keen to make their mark in the mental health sector and help us set up our Philanthropy programme from the beginning, why not be part of our future and join us in our newly created Head of Philanthropy role? Apply today!
