Director of development jobs in Bermondsey, greater london

Join Wings for Life and take the lead in shaping one of the most exciting and impactful event portfolios in the charity sector. You will drive the strategy, growth and delivery of a diverse programme of premium fundraising events, mass participation experiences and high-profile partnerships that inspire supporters, engage world-class brands and generate vital funds to find a cure for spinal cord injury.

Your portfolio will span exclusive owned fundraising events such as Mikey’s Mountain Miles, our skiing fundraiser with Mike Tindal MBE; The Clay Day, a premium sporting and hospitality experience with our Formula 1 partners; and two established golf events, including an owned event, Gourmet Golf, and a supporter-led initiative. You will also play a central role in maximising opportunities through major third-party events and partnerships, including the Wings for Life World Run, the London Marathon 2027, and high-profile Red Bull events.

This is more than event management. It is an opportunity to identify new opportunities, develop innovative event concepts and create unforgettable supporter experiences that stand out in a crowded fundraising landscape. Working closely with senior leadership, ambassadors, partners and supporters, you will combine creativity, commercial acumen and flawless execution to grow income, build awareness and strengthen Wings for Life’s position as a leading charity brand. Whether enhancing existing events or creating entirely new experiences within and beyond the Red Bull universe, you will play a pivotal role in delivering ambitious growth and lasting impact.

What We're Looking For

We’re seeking an ambitious, creative and highly organised event leader who thrives on turning great ideas into exceptional experiences. You will have a proven track record of delivering high-quality events, achieving ambitious commercial and fundraising targets, and building strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders. Equally comfortable developing strategy and rolling up your sleeves to deliver flawless event execution, you will bring the energy, entrepreneurial mindset and attention to detail needed to drive growth across our events portfolio.

As a manager, you will lead and develop our Event & Fundraising Specialist, providing coaching, support and professional development while fostering a collaborative, high-performing culture. You will also play an active role in supporting our individual fundraising programme and championing a ‘one team’ approach across the organisation.

Success in this role will require strong commercial awareness, budget management expertise and the confidence to negotiate, influence and present to senior stakeholders, partners and Board members. You will be adept at managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment, while maintaining a relentless focus on delivering outstanding supporter experiences and maximising return on investment.

Experience working with premium brands, VIP audiences, luxury hospitality or high-end events would be advantageous, as would a passion for identifying new opportunities, creating innovative event concepts and challenging conventional thinking. Above all, you will be a solutions-focused self-starter with exceptional relationship-building skills, a genuine passion for our mission and the drive to help Wings for Life achieve extraordinary impact.

We value experience, talent and results over formal qualifications. If you have the vision, energy and expertise to grow one of the most exciting event portfolios in the charity sector, we'd love to hear from you.

Wings for Life have one sole mission: to find a cure for spinal cord injury. As the charity partner of Red Bull, 100% of our fundraising goes directly to scientific research as they cover all our costs.

Salary

The full-time equivalent salary for this role is £40,000. The pro rata salary is £32,000. 

As a Manager, you will lead the development and delivery of research and evaluation projects, ensuring clients feel supported, informed and delighted throughout. You will bring methodological knowledge, attention to detail, and a collaborative spirit to every stage of the work.

You will work closely with the Director and the Senior Managers, contributing to the quality and smooth running of projects across a diverse client portfolio.

Every role at Bean Research fuels our mission to be the trusted learning and evaluation partner of choice, helping organisations frame, evaluate and amplify social value with confidence and clarity.

We are rigorous but never dull, and we see our job as translating evidence into something genuinely useful. If you want to work somewhere that lives its values, this is it.

Why This Role, Why Now
Bean has grown, then deliberately paused to build stronger systems and foundations. We are now ready to grow again. This is a pivotal delivery role at the heart of our evaluation work: you will manage and deliver a varied portfolio of evaluation and learning projects, work closely with the Director and Senior Managers, and be the dependable, day-to-day partner our clients trust.

The Marketing Projects & Partnerships Lead will play a pivotal role within the Bikeability Trust's Strategy team, supporting both the Marketing & Communications team and Fundraising team to achieve their 5-year strategic goals – namely income generation and dynamic behavioural change programmes.

This is a project management focused marketing role, spanning marketing project delivery, partnership activation, and stakeholder engagement. The role requires an exceptionally organised individual who can manage and prioritise multiple concurrent projects, ensuring activity is planned, aligned, and delivered on time. 

You will be responsible for keeping complex workstreams moving—coordinating internal teams and external partners—while bringing a solid understanding of marketing channels and approaches to support effective delivery. 

We are looking for someone who cares deeply about our ambitious plans, and who has the skills to manage large scale programmes, whilst also being able to independently take action to deliver operational tasks. 

Your work will be central to enabling our continued growth, directly supporting the development of strong partner relationships and shaping the experience they have across our programmes, so that they can deliver excellent outcomes for babies, children and young people.

Role Overview

We are looking to appoint three Programme Officers, who will be responsible for supporting programme delivery and programme operations at the Reach Foundation. 

We have 3 vacancies across our portfolios of work:

Role 1: Programme Officer (Leadership)

This includes our x100 programmes across the West, East, Yorkshire and Greater Manchester, our leadership programme with A Million Realities, and newly established place based leadership programmes for heads and executive leaders.

Role 2: Programme Officer (Cradle-to-Career)

This includes our Cradle-to-Career catalyst, foundations and leadership programmes (which are each distinct phases of our Cradle-to-Career core offer), our Accelerator programme, and a number of bespoke Cradle-to-Career catalyst programmes run directly for partner organisations. 

Role 3: Programme Officer (Educational Breakthroughs)

Helping to launch our newest strand of work, developing and growing ‘educational breakthroughs’ that enable all children to enjoy lives of choice and opportunity. This will include delivery of existing elements of our ‘breakthrough portfolio’ (Languages for All, developing mapping/ data tools to support local breakthroughs, re-imagining key stage 3 for Lift Schools) and supporting new clients as we begin partnerships with them. 

Each role has a distinct portfolio of programmes you will support, but the duties, skills and capabilities required for each role are aligned. We expect the three Programme Officers to work together closely to ensure consistency of delivery across our work, to share learning and to develop a community of practice. 

You will work closely with the Directors responsible for each programme, alongside our Events and Operations Officers, who work across all programmes,  to ensure our programmes are planned and delivered to a high standard. 

The role of the Programme Officer has three core areas of responsibility:

1. Programme Planning and Project Management

• Work with the Events and Operations Officers to complete the annual calendar-setting process, setting event dates and key programme milestones. Ensure all events are appropriately staffed. 

• Utilise Asana to monitor project milestones, proactively identify off-track delivery risks, and lead status updates during programme meetings to ensure timely intervention.

• Champion the use of HubSpot (CRM) and set up progress dashboards alongside evaluation colleagues.

2. Programme Delivery

• Improve (or establish) processes that ensure that every participant on our programmes has a great experience from the moment they find out about us, to when they exit working with us. 

• Manage the main programme inbox, serving as the responsive, warm, and professional first point of contact for routine enquiries from participants and external partners

• Coordinate regular, high-quality programmatic communications (e.g. programme blasts or event invites) to keep participants informed and engaged throughout the year. You may author these, or work with others to ensure they are circulated in a timely manner.

• Ensure all programmatic data collection is in line with GDPR guidelines.

• Support in programme administration tasks, such as preparing papers for steering group meetings, taking minutes and circulating actions. 

• Actively participate in cross-organisational reviews, sharing delivery insights in order to improve the quality of our work. 

• Programme-Specific Deliverables: 

Participant Recruitment & Onboarding: Lead the end-to-end application and onboarding journey for new programme cohorts, including coordinating assessment or sign up windows, distributing welcome materials, and managing intake data. 

Coaching Offer Management: Act as the end-to-end operational lead for the leadership coaching offer, managing coach-matching logistics, scheduling, and tracking completion rates.

Contract and Agreement Tracking: Administer the distribution and tracking of Service Level Agreements (SLAs), ensuring signed copies are received prior to delivery. 

3. Stakeholder and Relationship Management

• Coordinate the operational onboarding of new bespoke partners, guiding both internal and external senior stakeholders through this initial phase

• Invest deeply in building strong, warm, and respectful relationships with senior external stakeholders across identified bespoke partnerships, acting as a point of contact for any queries and ensuring excellent customer service

• Develop strong relationships internally, particularly with Regional Directors or Breakthrough Project Leads , providing them with regular progress updates, risk assessments, and actionable recommendations ahead of key delivery milestones.

• Actively collaborate with fellow Programme Officers to share operational learnings, standardise delivery templates, and build a supportive internal community of practice.
