This is an exciting opportunity to shape and lead an ambitious fundraising vision, driving sustainable growth and diversification while making a tangible difference to young people and communities across London. The successful candidate will take ownership of the charity’s income generation programme, developing and delivering a 3-year fundraising strategy that unlocks new opportunities, deepens partnerships, and fuels the next phase of Build Up’s impact.

Organisation

For over a decade, Build Up has been transforming neighbourhoods by empowering young people to design and build public spaces in their own communities. Their work sits at the intersection of youth empowerment, design, and construction — a truly unique and innovative model that equips young people with the tools and agency to shape where they live. By shifting power to young people who are excluded from regeneration processes, Build Up supports young people to gain skills and experience in making decisions that affect them and creates genuinely inclusive spaces for local communities.

The Role

The Head of Income Generation will play a critical role in bringing this mission to life through compelling storytelling, strategic relationship-building, and entrepreneurial fundraising.

Managing the full fundraising cycle, you’ll be motivated by turning opportunities into long-term partnerships and ensuring funders feel genuinely connected to Build Up’s mission.

Build Up is looking for someone who is creative, strategic, and driven by social impact: a confident relationship-builder who thrives on innovation and is excited by the chance to shape a high-impact fundraising function with enormous potential.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and deliver a 3-year fundraising strategy focused on securing sustainable funding and diversifying income streams

• Commission and manage a communications consultant (Year 1) to develop and deliver a strategy for reaching new audiences
• Commission and manage an evaluation consultant (Year 2) to redesign Build Up’s evaluation framework, strengthening evidence and communications

Person Specification

• Proven track record of developing and delivering successful fundraising strategies that drive sustainable income growth across high value fundraising streams
• Demonstrable experience securing and managing trust and foundation funding
• Experience working with other high value supporters such as major donors and corporate partners
• Excellent written communication skills, with the ability to craft compelling proposals and clearly articulate Build Up’s impact

The Wildlife Trusts are a grassroots movement of people from a wide range of backgrounds and all walks of life, who believe that we need nature and nature needs us. We have more than 945,000 members, over 33,000 volunteers, 4,100 staff and 600 trustees. There are 46 individual Wildlife Trusts, each of which is a place-based independent charity with its own legal identity, formed by groups of people getting together and working with others to make a positive difference to wildlife and future generations, starting where they live and work.

Every Wildlife Trust is part of The Wildlife Trusts federation and a corporate member of the Royal Society of Wildlife Trusts, a registered charity in its own right founded in 1912 and one of the founding members of IUCN – the International Union for the Conservation of Nature. Taken together this federation of 47 charities is known as The Wildlife Trusts.

The next few years will be critical in determining what kind of world we all live in. We need to urgently reverse the loss of wildlife and put nature into recovery at scale if we are to prevent climate and ecological disaster. We recognise that this will require big, bold changes in the way The Wildlife Trusts work, not least in how we mobilise others and support them to organise within their own communities.

With 12 Nobel Laureates across its long and distinguished history, Oxford's Medical Sciences Division is internationally recognised for excellence across the full spectrum of medical research - from molecular science and genetics to population health, policy and global health initiatives.

Philanthropy plays a critical role in enabling this work, helping researchers push forward life-changing discoveries and translating innovation into real-world impact.

Working closely with the Head of Development, you'll lead on a portfolio of major and principal gift relationships, securing transformational philanthropic support for pioneering medical research. As well as building long-term partnerships with high-value donors, you'll also closely collaborate with senior academics and researchers to shape compelling philanthropic opportunities, inspired by world-class science.

This is a role offering real autonomy, influence and intellectual breadth, with a rare opportunity to help shape the future of medicine and health at a world-leading institution.

About you

You're a confident, relationship-led fundraiser with a track record of securing complex, high-value philanthropic support, already having secured six-figure gifts and possibly beyond.

We're looking for someone with:

• Significant experience in major gifts fundraising, with the ability to lead sophisticated donor relationships with confidence and credibility.
• Strategic thinking coupled with precise delivery skills - organised, proactive and outcome-focused.
• Outstanding interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to engage and influence a wide range of stakeholders.
• Curiosity, adaptability and the intellectual agility to work across diverse medical research themes and priorities.

Experience within higher education, healthcare, medical research, life sciences or global health would be highly beneficial, but not essential if you have the appetite and ability to learn. Above all, you're inspired by Oxford's unique potential to transform philanthropic gifts into breakthroughs in medicine and health.

What's on offer

Your wellbeing matters, and the University of Oxford offers a comprehensive and generous benefits package, including:

• Flexible hybrid working
• An excellent contributory pension scheme
• 38 days annual leave
• Membership of CASE
• Ongoing training and development opportunities
• A comprehensive range of childcare services
• Family leave schemes
• Cycle loan scheme
• Membership of a variety of social and sports clubs
• Discounted bus travel and season ticket travel loan
