The Philanthropy Development Lead will provide the leadership, strategic thinking and client focus needed to turn complex giving opportunities into well-defined and testable propositions. The role will work with a small number of highly engaged families, including existing client prospects, while ensuring that any developing proposition remains clearly focused on charitable philanthropy and operates within Stewardship’s mission, expertise and risk appetite. 

You will lead the design and delivery of Stewardship’s philanthropy proposition development programme. 
You will bring together client insight, philanthropy expertise, commercial thinking and operational design to develop and test services that help Christian families steward their purpose, giving and legacy. This may include coordinating support across family members, advisers, charitable structures, grant-making activity, governance arrangements, succession and next-generation involvement.
