As part of a high-performing, collaborative Development team, the postholder will secure transformational six-figure gifts from high-net-worth individuals, generating significant philanthropic income to support a diverse portfolio of inspiring projects. Working closely with senior stakeholders, curators, and scientists, the role will shape compelling cases for support that connect donors to the Museum’s mission and impact. The postholder will provide exemplary stewardship and create robust and long-term pipelines, whilst actively supporting the Philanthropy Executive with their portfolio.

This position offers the chance to influence the future of one of the world’s most iconic museums, whilst sharing the Museum’s ambition with like-minded philanthropists.

About you

As our next Philanthropy Manager, you’ll bring your talent for cultivating meaningful relationships and turning strategic vision into tangible support for one of the world’s most inspiring institutions. You’ll thrive on building and managing a dynamic portfolio of major donors by researching prospects, crafting tailored proposals, and delivering exceptional stewardship that deepens engagement year after year. With your outstanding communication skills and confident ambassadorial presence, you’ll represent the Natural History Museum to an array of high-profile supporters, translating complex ideas into compelling stories that spark generosity. Collaborative and proactive, you’ll work closely with colleagues across the Museum to shape innovative funding opportunities that align with our bold scientific and cultural ambitions. Meticulous organisation, a sharp eye for detail, and an ability to stay composed under pressure will ensure you deliver exceptional results in a fast-moving, purpose-driven environment.

If you’re a motivated relationship-builder with a track record of securing significant gifts and you want to use your skills to make a lasting difference, we would love to hear from you.

Change is a constant at B Lab UK. Certified B Corps aren’t just ticking boxes – they’re on a journey, navigating an ever-changing landscape. And as our Recertification Lead you’ll be guiding them through it.

In this opportunity, you’ll put all your customer, stakeholder, communication and project management abilities into delivering and supporting B Corp recertification. It’s an evolving process that requires trust, inclusiveness, integrity, balance – and a passion for contributing to the long-term wellbeing of people and the planet. We believe you’ll bring your own unique take on that.

B Lab UK is part of the global B Corp movement, with the mission to inspire and enable people to use business as a force for good. Certified B Corps seek to redefine success in business by putting social and environmental impact on a par with profit. There are now over 10,000 B Corps spanning 102 countries and 160+ sectors, with many well-known brands including Patagonia, The Guardian, Giff Gaff and Divine Chocolate. 2,500 of those businesses are in the UK. 

As Recertification Lead, you’ll focus on managing and creating recertification processes – supporting companies through their journey and the transition to B Lab’s new standards. 

• Lead the transition of recertification processes to adapt to the new standards.

• Maintain standards expertise and collaborate with the Community Team to support B Corps to recertify.

• Create and deliver the customer journey, devising different journeys, communications plans and resources to provide a tiered and scalable offering.

• Establish key metrics to measure success of processes and monitor progress.

• Manage the Recertification Coordinator and work closely with them to ensure a timely, well-supported and successful customer journey.

• Lead on communication and engagement with highest priority recertifications, providing technical support around the recertification process and the standards to non-specialists.

Please refer to the job description for full requirements for this role.

The kind of things we’re looking for…

• Clear potential to ensure a positive customer journey, in order to go further together.

• Good stakeholder management, with the ability to handle complex and sensitive communications, to engage at all levels, and to develop/enhance and embed resources.

• Strong organisation and project management abilities, including establishing and using metrics/KPIs to measure and track success of a project/process.

• Analytical mindset, focused on continuous improvement, with experience developing and improving processes/systems in order to raise the bar and bring out the best in everyone.

• Ability to pick up new information quickly and communicate technical details effectively.

• A proactive and flexible approach, with the ability to manage multiple priorities, roll up your sleeves and choose courage over comfort.

• Experience in Salesforce or similar CRMs, plus (ideally) digital accessibility.

• Commitment to the principles of justice, equity, diversity and inclusion.

• Passion about sustainability – especially how business can be a force for good.

Candidates must be able to demonstrate their eligibility to work in the UK (we are not able to provide visa sponsorship).
