Millfield is one of the leading UK independent schools for boys and girls aged 2–18 years. As one of the largest co-educational boarding and day schools in the UK, with over 1,300 students at Millfield and 440 at Millfield Prep, it has the resources to offer world-leading teaching and coaching. Millfield never settles for the status quo and regards itself as a disruptor in education.

Established in 1935 and located on an impressive campus in a stunning location with world-class facilities, it believes in shaping the school around the child, where excellence in teaching and coaching comes together with the child at the centre. Its aim is that each individual will discover their own brilliance. Students come from 70 different countries to the school, and >90% of applicants have it as their first choice. Since 1935, Millfield has celebrated diversity, and ‘the Millfield mix’ has been achieved through a relentless commitment to supporting bursaries.

Millfield is now seeking to appoint an exceptional Director of Development to take the lead in delivering its future fundraising and stakeholder relations strategies. Both will align with the vision, goals and values of the school and the Millfield Foundation (a separate but linked charity) and build upon the structures and relationships already in place.

Reporting to the Headmaster and as a member of the Executive Group, the Director will be responsible for further developing relations with a broad network of alumni, friends and supporters (nationally and internationally) and delivering a £multi-million fundraising campaign for transformational bursaries in recognition of the school’s 100th anniversary in 2035.

This is an outstanding opportunity for a highly experienced development professional to create a sector-leading campaign. Bringing a strong track record in major gifts fundraising along with outstanding relationship-building skills, the successful candidate will be an inspiring individual with the expertise to deliver ambitious fundraising strategies and optimise the school’s significant philanthropic potential.

Experience of working in a UK school environment is not essential, but candidates will be supportive of independent education in general and the Millfield ethos in particular.
