Job description

England’s National Football Museum exists to house and harness the power of football, to share stories that influence, to showcase culture and involve and motivate people to creatively engage. It’s the place to experience football in all its glory, and the place to experience why football matters. We have ambitious plans to transform the National Football Museum and are looking for a proactive and dynamic Fundraising Manager to join our team. This is a unique opportunity to help shape our fundraising and development plan, enabling you to make your mark on one of the country’s best loved museums at an exciting time of transformation.

The role will be responsible for managing the development and implementation of the National Football Museum’s fundraising and development plan, driving initiatives to secure both grant (restricted) and unrestricted income. It will be key to supporting the museum’s Football Creates strategy and capital transformation.

The position is ideal for an experienced manager who can think strategically and has a strong track record in income generation, particularly for capital projects. As an ‘all-rounder’ you are well versed in grant (restricted) and unrestricted fundraising and enjoy working in an environment where collaboration and creativity are key.

We offer a wide range of benefits including company pension, medical cash plan scheme, access to Employee Assistance Programme and associated wellbeing resources and hybrid working.
