Job description

The Talent Set is delighted to be partnering with Brain Tumour Research to recruit a Philanthropy Manager.

One in three people in the UK knows someone affected by a brain tumour. Despite being the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40, just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to brain tumour research since records began. Brain Tumour Research exists to change this. 

This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing Philanthropy and Partnerships team at a pivotal point in its development. The role offers the chance to work across a diverse portfolio of high-value fundraising activity, building relationships with major donors, trusts and foundations, corporate partners and member charities.

Successful philanthropy is built on meaningful relationships, compelling stories and the ability to connect supporters with the impact of their giving. This role will play a vital part in helping Brain Tumour Research engage and inspire supporters, translating complex research and organisational priorities into powerful cases for support that drive long-term income growth.

Working closely with the Head of Philanthropy and Partnerships and colleagues across the organisation, you will develop funding proposals, stewardship communications and impact reports, while supporting the cultivation and management of a growing portfolio of high-value supporters.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support the development and management of relationships with major donors, trusts and foundations, corporate partners and member charities
  • Research, identify and help secure new funding opportunities and strategic partnerships
  • Produce compelling funding proposals, cases for support, donor communications and impact reports
  • Develop tailored stewardship plans to strengthen donor engagement and retention
  • Lead on personalised communications and relationship management activities with high-value supporters
  • Maintain accurate CRM records and use donor data to inform fundraising strategy and pipeline management
  • Work collaboratively with colleagues across research, communications and operational teams to develop engaging fundraising propositions
  • Support the delivery of fundraising objectives, income targets and wider organisational goals
  • Contribute to the planning and delivery of donor cultivation and stewardship events

Person Specification

  • Proven experience within philanthropy, fundraising, partnerships, trusts and foundations, or major donor fundraising
  • Demonstrable success in securing income from trusts, foundations, high-net-worth individuals or strategic partners
  • Experience developing funding applications, proposals and donor reports
  • Exceptional written communication skills with the ability to create compelling and persuasive content
  • Strong relationship-building and stakeholder management skills
  • Experience using CRM systems to manage supporter engagement and fundraising pipelines
  • Highly organised with the ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines
  • Proactive, solutions-focused and collaborative in approach
  • Strong attention to detail and commitment to delivering high-quality work
  • Motivated by the opportunity to make a meaningful impact through fundraising

What's on Offer

Salary: £35,000 - £40,000 per annum
Hours: Full-time, 35 hours per week
Contract: Permanent
Location: Hybrid working, Milton Keynes - 2 Days In The Office
