Corporate and community fundraising manager jobs

We are a not-for-profit organisation committed to increasing the diversity and numbers of young people entering engineering and technology to meet the future workforce needs, as well as promoting roles that help us work towards net zero and drive environmental sustainability.
 

This maternity cover role is a fantastic opportunity to make a direct impact on this mission. You’ll achieve this as part of a deeply collaborative and trusts-funding-ready organisational culture.
 

You may be an experienced fundraising manager wanting to contribute to and steer strategy development, or a specialist seeking to take the next step in their career. With experience in grant funding – from trusts, foundations, philanthropists or government – you will have three key areas shape, building on the great foundations already in place. These are;
 

• Building EngineeringUK’s pipeline of prospective funders. Researching vision-aligned high value potential funders. There’s an impact-rich portfolio of restricted and unrestricted programmes and themes ranging from sustainability to gender equity to explore.
• You’ll relationship-manage our most significant funders - be the new visionary funders in the green space, piloting new work, to long-established education-focussed funders giving multi-year gifts.
  •  You will take the lead on developing and writing proposals in collaboration with vibrant, and evidence-based Engagement Programme, Research and Policy teams.
     

You will be part of a truly collaborative team which achieves shared ambitions, when working on cross-department projects such as reporting to your funders and preparing engaging experiences for them. This can include visits to schools, tours of our stand-out Big Bang Fair with 20,000 visitors, or volunteering on our Big Bang competition judging. These opportunities mean that EngineeringUK is uniquely placed for a Trusts & Foundations Manager to work in meaningful relationship development as well as the “bread and butter” delivery. In this job, you will experience EngineeringUK’s values first-hand, through direct relationships with your CEO and Trustee Board members, as well as your community of relationship specialist teammates.
 

About the role
 

We are looking for a passionate and skilled Trusts & Foundations specialist to complete a maternity cover. This role will continue to expand EngineeringUK’s relationships in this field and develop grant-funding as a core income stream for our work. We receive significant funding from grant funders already but are looking to scale this income stream. This gives the successful candidate the opportunity to create impact for our programme delivery, research and beyond. Whilst this is currently the sole role focusing on this area, you would be supported by the Director of Business Development & Partnerships and the Chief Executive, both of whom have experience in this type of fundraising. Senior level engagement and support means we can be flexible to the level of experience of the successful candidate, making this role a great opportunity for an experienced Manager wanting to take ownership of a strategy, or for a Specialist looking to take their next step and develop their strategic skills.
 

The Trusts & Foundations Manager (maternity cover) role is part of the Business & Industry team (11 people), who have responsibility for all funding and industry relationships across EngineeringUK. The team works strategically with stakeholders across the engineering, technology and education sectors, to support our mission to increase the number and diversity of young people choosing engineering and technology careers. Opportunities for funding include our bursary programme, in-school programmes such as Climate Schools and Big Bang Programme, supporting our community of Code signatories, and developing new programmes.
 

Prospecting and pipeline management is a key element of this role and once funding is secured, the postholder will account manage the relationship, including regular reporting, delivered in collaboration with programme leads. Therefore, in addition to being able to secure new funding, interest in and experience of delivering excellent account management is essential.
 

Whilst the core focus of the role will be on developing relationships with trusts & foundations and bid writing, there may also be some opportunities to explore key relationships we hold in government, connected to statutory grants and procurement opportunities.

The role is London based at our office at 10 Lower Thames Street, London EC3R 6EN and may involve some travel in the UK. We believe that hybrid working has many benefits and are pleased to offer flexible working with a minimum of 2 days (or 40%) a week in the office and the option for a flexible start and end to the working day in our vibrant central London office overlooking the Thames. Further details on our flexible working practices can be discussed at interview or you can reach out to a member of our HR team.
