Noah’s Ark Children’s Hospice helps babies, children and young people who are seriously unwell, and their families, make the most of every day. The charity aspires to become a centre of clinical excellence for children with life-limiting or life-threatening conditions.
We’ve been on a major upward trajectory in recent years, with more children being supported, more major hospitals being partnered with and more supporters donating. We’ve transformed from being an enthusiastic start-up delivering care in the community, to a serious player delivering major impact both in the community and at our state-of-the-art hospice building, The Ark, opened in 2019.
Philanthropy, which covers Grants, Trusts & Foundations and Major Donor fundraising streams, is pivotal to Noah’s Ark, typically accounting for around 50% of the charity’s voluntary income. This is an area of real expertise for Noah’s Ark, with much scope for further refining. The successful candidate will therefore be instrumental in taking this key income stream forward, add to an exciting portfolio and gain further training and support, working as part of a high-performing and super supportive team, ready for its next development phase.
The Grants, Trusts & Foundations Manager will work closely with and report to the Head of Philanthropy to develop the Trust pipeline, along with instrumental cross-team work on applications and reporting processes for other income streams. Whilst we work towards developing a more diverse funding model and navigate changes to the external Trust environment, sustaining and growing income from Trusts will remain vital.
The post-holder will manage a Philanthropy Officer (Trusts & Major Donors) and, together, they will be instrumental in taking the Trust programme to the next level, establishing lasting relationships with funders, securing new grants, increasing multi-year gifts and improving both quality and volume of applications and reports. They will also support the Philanthropy Officer, and the wider team, to the same end with their respective portfolios.
ABOUT YOU
You will be a highly organised, dedicated and reliable individual ready to play a significant role in income generation. An exceptional and eloquent communicator, excellent at managing your time and a natural relationship builder. You will have a collaborative mindset, and be willing to engage with colleagues across the fundraising team and wider charity to create the greatest outcomes for the children and families we support.
You will have considerable experience fundraising from grant makers and will be able to demonstrate your success with securing high value gifts and building meaningful relationships. You will have confidence in your ability to make an impact through collaborative lateral thinking. You will also support other team members with their applications, as well as acting as a key liaison with our Care team to obtain latest information about service delivery.
If you have ample experience of fundraising from Trusts, have achieved outstanding success in a short period of time or have held a key position within a Trust programme, including securing numerous significant – ideally six-figure – grants, we would love you to apply.
Please refer to the Job description for further information on this role.

This role has been created to lead the second strand.
While the Senior Philanthropy Manager’s primary focus will be generating income from a warm portfolio of major donors, they will also take strategic ownership of War Child’s high-value philanthropy events, shaping donor engagement rather than delivering events operationally.

- Lead on donor engagement around events, including narrative, asks, pledge levels, follow-up and conversion to income
- Analyse and prioritise prospects with the Data & Insights Manager to focus effort on the highest-value opportunities
- Unlock and activate influential networks through ambassadors, senior volunteers and high-profile supporters
- Work closely with the Head of Philanthropy, Data & Insights Manager, Events Producer, and Principal Giving Lead
Essential skills and experience:
- Significant experience of high-value major donor fundraising, with a track record of securing £50k+ gifts from HNWIs
- Strong experience of developing donors through identification, cultivation, solicitation and long-term stewardship
- Credibility and confidence working with wealthy, influential individuals, advisers, celebrities and senior volunteers
- Experience of shaping donor engagement strategy around high-value events or pledge environments
- Strategic thinker with strong judgement on prospect prioritisation and pipeline management
- Excellent relationship management, influencing and written communication skills
- Comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-moving, high-profile environment
Desirable:
- Experience of pledge dinners or high-value special events at a strategic fundraising level
- Experience working with ambassadors or high-profile supporters
- International development or humanitarian sector experience
Not required: Direct event production experience; Line management experience
