About The Role
Every day, people affected by dementia face questions about what’s next. For many, taking part in clinical research offers hope, purpose, and a chance to shape the future of dementia care. But finding the right trial, understanding what it involves, and knowing how to take part can be confusing.
At Alzheimer’s Society, we are committed to breaking down these barriers. The Alzheimer’s Society UK Dementia Trials Network (UKDTN) Trial Finder is an open-access platform that connects people living with mild cognitive impairment or dementia, their families, and healthcare professionals, with research opportunities across the UK.

You’ll join a collaborative, supportive environment that values inclusion, continuous learning, and making a tangible difference. Your skills will directly support people living with dementia and their families, and you’ll play a key role in advancing research that matters.

This newly created and pivotal role comes at a crucial moment in Sands’ strategic journey. As Senior Philanthropy Manager, you will lead an ambitious, integrated high value fundraising programme spanning major donors, charitable trusts, foundations and statutory funders - driving the growth needed to fuel research excellence, strengthen bereavement support, and save more babies’ lives.

During the last strategic period, Sands successfully doubled its income, powered by a strengthened pipeline, compelling propositions and increased donor engagement. As we enter the next strategy cycle, the expectation is to match - and build on - this success, with the Senior Philanthropy Manager playing a central role in delivering the next major uplift.

You will shape and drive a step change in high value fundraising: building a sustainable long-term pipeline, cultivating transformational supporters and unlocking new networks with emphasis across the UK health and research landscape. A key focus will be aligning fundraising closely with the organisation’s new research and Saving Babies’ Lives ambitions - identifying and engaging donors passionate about research excellence, and translating research innovation into compelling, donor-led opportunities.

Confident in pairing organisational priorities with supporter motivations, you will open new doors and deepen engagement with those capable of driving meaningful impact.

With management responsibility for the Trusts & Statutory team, you will strengthen organisational resilience and contribute to sector leading fundraising performance at a time of significant ambition. You will bring a values driven, collaborative and curious leadership style, alongside excellent communication, relationship building and influencing skills. Highly organised, you thrive in fast-paced environments and deliver under pressure. A true team player, this role offers a rare opportunity to shape transformative fundraising and make a profound difference to families and babies across the UK.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging
We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  
We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 
Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people. 
Our hiring process
During your recruitment process we want to make sure that you bring your whole self and can be at your best. We are working hard to ensure our recruitment process is as inclusive as possible, so please do inform us of your experience and anything you think we could do better by completing our candidate survey when you apply.  Please also contact Alzheimer's Society Talent Acquisition Team via [email protected] for application support or any adjustments you might need.
To ensure fairness and consistency to select the best candidate for this role, all our applications are anonymised up until an interview has been confirmed. We recognise the benefits of AI, but if you're considering using it to submit your application, we encourage you to reflect on the value it truly adds. AI tools often lack the personal touch and authenticity that set candidates apart. We want to hear your unique perspective, experiences, and skills, so we encourage you to showcase them in your own voice.
We try to avoid closing roles early where possible, however if we receive a high volume of applications, we may close earlier than the advertised closing date. Should this occur, we will aim to provide you with at least 48 hours' notice.
We are committed to safer recruitment and ensuring the welfare of those we work with, due to the nature of some of our roles, we might need to carry out a Criminal Record Check at the relevant level. You can read more information via our Website.
