Job description

HEAD OF DEVELOPMENT

Permanent, full time position (37.5 hours per week)

Salary £42,000 to £47,500 per annum 

Founded in 1977, Yorkshire Sculpture Park (YSP) is a registered charity (1067908) and accredited museum, based in Wakefield, West Yorkshire. The Park is an established leading international destination for sculpture, inspiring everyone to enjoy and engage with art, nature, creativity, and our shared humanity. YSP presents work by world-renowned artists, including Barbara Hepworth, Henry Moore, Damien Hirst and Elisabeth Frink. Since opening, YSP has worked with over 1,000 artists from more than 40 countries.

YSP is set within a Grade II listed 500-acre historic landscape, registered by Historic England for its special interest and national significance and featuring woods, lakes, gardens and parkland. Ninety sculptures are sited in the landscape, with additional changing exhibitions, displays and events across three galleries and in the open air.

Our mission is to showcase exceptional art, creating meaningful and enjoyable cultural and learning experiences for everyone in a singular environment. To deliver this each year we welcome over 230,000 visitors and work with over 40,000 learners, including teachers and students from 800 primary and secondary schools, colleges and universities. Some participants will have their first art experience at YSP, and we provide the opportunity for young people to gain the nationally recognised Arts Award.

Overview of the Role

As YSP approaches its 50th anniversary it is at a pivotal moment in its history. The Trustees and Senior Leadership Team are developing proposals to secure the financial future of YSP for the next 50 years. The Head of Development will play a key part in realising that ambition by supporting a range of activities including fundraising for capital projects to nurture and grow our supporter base.

YSP is looking for an ambitious, experienced and organised individual with an excellent understanding of fundraising to play a central role in securing YSP’s future.

As Head of Development, you will work closely with Trustees, the Director and Senior Leadership Team (especially the Commercial Director, Head of Programme & Head of Estates and Projects). You will craft and execute an ambitious fundraising strategy that develops new income streams to fund our core mission while growing a pipeline of funding to help secure the long-term future of YSP. Through your leadership, specific targets and KPIs will be achieved on an annual basis.

This is a full-time role but there will be some flexibility for the right candidate, and in-line with YSP’s hybrid working policy you will be able to work 1 or 2 days off site.

Employee benefits:

  • Canteen
  • Company events
  • Company pension
  • Discounted or free food
  • Employee discount
  • Employee mentoring programme
  • Free parking
  • On-site parking
  • Sick pay

Schedule: Monday to Friday
