Our client believes every child should have the chance to feel safe, happy, and hopeful about their future. As the Charity's CEO puts it, "this is a genuinely game-changing moment for our Charity" as the charity ramps up its most ambitious investment yet in early help and mental health support through its Major Appeal. This is a standout opportunity to play a leading role in that step-change in impact and in the philanthropy needed to fund it.

Senior Major Gifts Manager

Permanent, full time, 35 hours per week (flexible arrangements open to discussion)

Work from anywhere in the UK (regular travel and London meetings required)

If you feel you meet some of the criteria but not all, we really hope you'll enquire and learn more. Prospectus can advise and support on each part of the role and hopefully your application, so we look forward to hearing from you. 

In order to apply please submit your CV in the first instance. Should your experience be suitable, we will arrange for a meeting to brief you on the role. You'll then have all the information you need to formally apply (your statement will need to answer three specific questions). We are looking forward to connecting with you soon.
