We have over 170 million items in our collection, from Magna Carta and Shakespeare’s first folio, to Beatles’ lyrics and Angela Carter’s archive. Our philanthropic supporters help us open up this world of ideas and inspiration for everyone.

The Library is in the quiet phase of an ambitious multimillion pound fundraising campaign. Working as part of a dedicated and ambitious development team, the Individual Giving Manager will make a significant contribution to team targets, with a particular remit to expand the Library’s individual giving prospect pipeline, building relationships and devising creative strategies to unlock the potential of the Library’s Patrons programme, both nationally and internationally.

You will be able to work on your own initiative, pro-actively identifying fundraising opportunities to meet the team’s stretching annual targets. A collaborative, determined, open and honest approach to align with the Library’s values and purposes will also be vital.

At present we have well over 170 million items, in most known languages, with three million new items added every year. We have manuscripts, maps, newspapers, magazines, prints and drawings, music scores, and patents. We make our collections and programmes available to all. We operate the world’s largest document delivery service providing millions of items a year to customers all over the world. What matters to us is that we preserve the national memory and enable knowledge to be created both now and in the future by anyone, anywhere.

 In return we offer a competitive salary and a number of excellent benefits.  Our pension scheme is one of the most valuable benefits we offer, as our staff can become members of the Alpha Pension Scheme where the Library contributes a minimum of 20.6% (this may be higher dependant on grade.

Did you know that we were ranked 11th Best Charity to Work For 2020 by Third Sector? Oh yes, and crowned Third Sector’s Charity of the Year in 2018? Not to mention we have won a variety of other awards and have been ranked a top global organisation by renowned management consultants McKinsey! While we’re not boasting, we are particularly proud that our HeadSmart campaign scooped the NHS Innovation Award, a Third Sector Excellence Award and a Charity Times Award (well, maybe we’re boasting a little bit!).​
