Refugee Action is looking for a Head of Fundraising, Brand & Insight to lead a critical area of our work.

Salary: £53,460 starting salary (salary range will increase to max £61,429 via the length of service) plus £4,324 Inner London Weighting if based in London per annum. 

Contract: Permanent

Hours: Full-Time 35 hours per week (excluding lunch breaks)

Location: Any Refugee Action Office (London, Manchester or Bradford). We will consider UK-based hybrid working options.

Responsible to: Chief Executive   

Responsible for: Public Fundraising & Brand Lead, Major Partnerships Lead, Data & Insight Lead

About Refugee Action 

We exist to defend the right of refugees, fighting the hostility that has a devastating, daily impact on refugees and our communities.  We do this with life changing support and system changing campaigns that bring us all closer to safety, dignity and hope.

Our vision is that every refugee seeking safety in the UK can thrive as part of a welcoming, anti-racist society.

It's an exciting time to be part of Refugee Action as we embark on a new Theory of Change as part of our seven-year strategy. At this critical moment, with anti-migrant sentiments on the rise, openly racist rhetoric and policies being espoused, we believe the best hope for real change will come from strong, connected movements that are skilled, united, and influential, with lived experience meaningfully at the centre. You can read more about what we do here.

About the role

You will lead Refugee Action's Fundraising, Brand and Insight department, building and delivering a sustainable programme that raises significant income from major partnerships and public fundraising.

The organisation has been through a period of change, and this role is central to leading the department through the transition by creating clarity, stability and shared purpose – restoring confidence, establishing clear ways of working, developing a compelling case for support and embedding a culture of proactive new business development.

You will take ownership of rebuilding the department’s foundations – setting direction, defining processes, and creating the conditions for high performance. The role will develop and promote a collaborative and inclusive team culture that builds resilience and celebrates success, with a focus on learning and well-being.

The role can be based in any of our offices: Manchester, London or Bradford, with extensive options for WFH.

About you

You are a self-starter and a builder – someone who takes pride in leaving teams stronger than you found them. You'll be energised rather than daunted by stepping into a department, with an organisational income profile of £4.5m - £5m per year.  You’ll be leading a department that needs direction and renewed momentum, following a recent organisational restructure and change, as we move into delivering a new strategy.

You will bring significant leadership experience across a range of relevant areas of public fundraising and major partnerships, and you'll be comfortable influencing senior stakeholders internally and externally.

Whether you have experience of income generation for the refugee and migration cause or not, you will have a strong drive towards social justice, recognising how fundraising can be a tool for challenging oppression and injustice. You will have strong anti-racist values and a commitment to centring and empowering people with lived experience, rather than approaches that are extractive or dehumanising. 

To succeed in the role, you will need to demonstrate:

• Understanding of how the UK’s hostile refugee protection and asylum system impacts those affected by it
• Commitment to anti-racism and to working to remove the barriers to power facing people with lived experience
• Commitment to the principles of confidentiality, impartiality and equality and equity of opportunity.
• Strong track record in developing significant income growth strategies and delivering results
• Strong understanding of the fundraising and digital landscape
• Knowledge and understanding of building programmes to acquire, retain, and upgrade donors through a range of channels and techniques
• Proven ability to build, support and motivate high-performing teams to achieve results, including though times of organisational change
• Experience of working collaboratively with a leadership team on strategic direction, risk management and governance
•  Knowledge and experience in identifying and cultivating high-value fundraising prospects.
• Understanding of brand development, with the ability to manage the effective and consistent use of an organisation’s visual and verbal identity.
• Experience in leading managing and developing staff, with strong people coaching, development and management skills.

Those with lived experience as a refugee are particularly encouraged to apply

What you will be doing

You’ll build and maintain relationships with our corporate partners, while also identifying new organisations and opportunities to grow our income. You’ll work closely with businesses to develop fundraising, sponsorship, volunteering and other ways they can support Enham Trust.

Job Title:Key Relationships Manager

Salary:£46,000 per annum

Location:Hybrid: London Office and Home

Hours of work:Full-time (35 hours per week)

Reporting to:Head of Key Relationships

Premier, the UK’s largest Christian media agency, is seeking a Key Relationships Manager who shares our passion for helping people encounter God through media and experience renewal.

Behind Premier’s ministry are generous supporters who make this work possible. Through thoughtful conversations, careful listening and a compelling invitation to give, you could help people connect their generosity with a mission close to their hearts — bringing the Gospel, encouragement and hope into everyday lives.

Role Overview:

You will build meaningful relationships with existing and prospective supporters, helping them discover how their giving can support Premier’s mission. Working with senior colleagues, you will guide relationships from first introduction through to a thoughtful invitation to give and ongoing care.

Alongside warmth and conviction, you will need persistence, disciplined follow-through and the confidence to ask for significant financial support when relationships are ready — potentially including gifts of up to seven figures. You do not need to have made asks at this level before, but you must be willing to learn.

 Key responsibilities will include:

• Building lasting partnerships: Develop and care for a portfolio of supporters, securing major gifts and multi-year commitments towards your annual six-figure target.
• Opening new conversations: Research and approach potential supporters, including senior individuals in the City’s corporate community, and create proposals that connect their giving aspirations with Premier’s mission.
• Representing Premier: Communicate our mission at donor meetings and events, involving senior colleagues where appropriate.
• Following through with care: Maintain accurate records, timely follow-up and monthly reporting, treating supporters with respect and following the Code of Fundraising Practice.

We are looking for someone with:

• A living Christian faith and a heart for the Gospel: A faith you can articulate clearly, commitment to Premier’s mission and a good understanding of the Christian community.
• A gift for relationships: Proven ability to build new professional connections and nurture trust, including with senior or influential people, through empathy, listening, tact and discretion.
• Purposeful communication: Excellent writing, presentation and conversational skills, with the confidence to represent Premier and a willingness to learn to ask directly for significant support.
• Initiative and accountability: Proven success against targets, resourcefulness in identifying opportunities, sound analytical judgement and a commitment to both personal responsibility and teamwork.
• Organisation and a learning mindset: Careful administration and follow-through, confident IT skills and the ability to learn new systems; degree-level education or equivalent knowledge and ability gained through professional experience.

Ideally, you will understand the principles of the major donor journey, but previous experience managing major donors or securing large gifts is not essential.

We are particularly interested in your commitment to Premier’s mission and your ability to build trust and turn conversations into lasting relationships. You might bring these strengths from account management, sales, fundraising or another relationship-focused role. We can help you develop the specialist fundraising skills – if you have empathy, initiative, sound judgement and a willingness to learn, this could be your next role!

Location and availability: This is a primarily London-based role. You must live within daily commutable distance of the City of London and be able to attend London meetings and donor visits at least two days each week, with attendance at Premier’s London office as required. Additional travel and occasional evening and weekend work are also required.

Please note that Premier is a Christian media agency and this role has a genuine occupational requirement for the post holder to have a personal Christian faith.

You will have experience of developing fundraising activity, balancing strong relationships with supporters and partners, and using data and performance measures to inform your work.  Experience in individual giving and / or legacy fundraising is particularly relevant, alongside an understanding of community fundraising and other voluntary income streams.

Who we are

Nature is in crisis. People are destroying and consuming the natural world at a devastating rate, threatening the ecosystems on which all life depends. Birds are our early warning system, revealing the health of our planet and helping us understand the urgent action needed to protect it.

BirdLife International is the world’s largest partnership for nature conservation, bringing together 125 national organisations across six continents to protect birds, biodiversity and the natural systems that sustain life. Through our unique local-to-global approach, we work at the intersection of science, policy and community action to tackle the global nature and climate crises.

Using world-leading bird science, we collect and analyse data from across continents, landscapes and seascapes to identify the most effective and innovative conservation solutions. Our work conserves species, safeguards critical habitats and empowers communities to create lasting change for nature and people.

At the heart of BirdLife is a powerful global movement. More than two million birders, scientists and local volunteers help track, study and protect birdlife around the world, generating the knowledge and action needed to drive conservation impact at scale. Together, we are giving nature a voice and building a future in which birds, wildlife and people can thrive.

BirdLife International’s Development Team is in an exciting new phase of recruitment and growth and will be hiring for a number of roles to support growth and sustainability across the organisation – including this newly created role.

About the role

Reporting to the Chief Development Officer and working closely with colleagues globally, the Head of Trusts and Foundations will lead the organisation’s largest income-generation area. Much of this support comes through relationship-led, long-term, multi-year partnerships that underpin the organisation’s global conservation work. Seeking to grow, develop and diversify this area, the Head of Trusts and Foundations will play both an operational and strategic role – personally winning and managing larger accounts, as well as developing the team and the strategy. The successful candidate will inherit a committed and experienced international team, a strong portfolio of existing funders and an organisation with a globally respected conservation mission. They will also play a critical role in shaping the next phase of growth and helping BirdLife expand its reach among major funders globally.

Key Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute a comprehensive trusts & foundations strategy to grow restricted and lightly restricted multi-year income globally.
• Lead, coach and develop the 3-person Trusts & Foundations team.
• Represent Trusts & Foundations on the Development Management Team to steward the Development programme at BirdLife and collectively lead transformational change, especially the shared delivery of the Development strategy.
• Represent Trusts & Foundations on the Principal Gifts Working Group to progress transformational trust and foundation opportunities alongside principal gifts.
• Identify opportunities to grow BirdLife’s global trusts and foundations donor base.
• Personally develop and manage BirdLife’s largest and most complex trust and foundation relationships and lead cultivation of transformational trust and foundation prospects.
• Set and monitor trusts & foundations income targets and performance goals; track progress, pipeline health and compliance status and provide regular reports to leadership on revenue generation, taking corrective action as needed.
• Manage the Trusts & Foundations team budget, recruitment and resource allocation.

Who we are looking for

This role would suit a seasoned trusts and foundations leader, ideally with experience in the conservation and/or international NGO space. We are looking for someone who enjoys being a player-coach, both hands-on and strategic, with experience securing and managing transformative (6- and 7-figure) grants – and coaching others to do the same.

• Experience personally raising six- and seven-figure grants from trusts and foundation donors and managing ongoing relationships with them.
• Experience of successfully developing and delivering a trusts & foundations fundraising strategy.
• Experience working in an international, complex, not-for-profit environment.
• Experience managing a small trusts & foundations team, including budgetary responsibility.
• Expert knowledge of current and evolving trusts & foundations fundraising practice.
• Good understanding of climate, biodiversity, civil society and nature conservation issues, or willingness to learn.
• Solid knowledge of restricted funding compliance, reporting and grant management.

Location: Remote, UK, with travel to the David Attenborough Building in Cambridge
Closing date: 9 a.m. Monday 5th October

Do you love building strong relationships with supporters and creating experiences that make people want to stay involved? Can you lead a team of passionate fundraisers and help shape the future of an established community fundraising programme?

Community fundraising is at the heart of what we do at London's Air Ambulance Charity, providing meaningful ways for Londoners to support their local air ambulance. We have an established and successful community fundraising programme, and as part of our new community engagement strategy we have ambitious plans to grow our supporter base, develop new fundraising products and opportunities, and create supporter journeys that encourage long-term engagement.

You'll play a key role in turning this ambition into reality. You'll lead the delivery and development of the community fundraising programme, working closely with the Head of Community Engagement and wider team to translate strategic objectives into clear and actionable plans.
