Can you interrogate complex data to help evaluate the performance of a portfolio? Are your decisions driven by audience-insight? If you’re a strategic thinker, with a passion for embedding change and new ways of working within an organisation, this is the role for you. 

We are looking for a Portfolio Development & Innovation Manager to help us review and evaluate our Fundraising portfolio, drive decisions about how we best meet our strategic goals and design a new Fundraising Innovation Strategy.  

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.

The Portfolio Development & Innovation Manager is part of the new Fundraising Planning team, following the launch of the Three Giants Fundraising strategy.

As well as leading the annual review of our Fundraising portfolio, this role will be responsible for developing our new fundraising innovation strategy; working with teams across the organisation to understand what innovation means to the Legion and designing processes and toolkits to embed new ways of working as part of this approach. 

We have a new strategy; a new structure and we’re now looking for new people to join our growing fundraising team. With your ambitious colleagues in Fundraising Planning, you’ll support the directorate to evolve and optimise our existing programme, drive efficiencies in the way we work and champion an audience-led approach that ensures strong relationships today and provide longer term opportunities to help fund our much-needed services in the years ahead.
