Job Purpose:
WAGGGS is embarking on a once-in-a-generation capital investment programme to secure the long-term sustainability of its global property portfolio, including its iconic World Centres.
These centres are at the heart of the Movement - places where girls and young women from across the world come together to learn, lead, and build lifelong connections.
Over the next ten years, £5.9 million is required to protect, upgrade, and future-proof these spaces, ensuring they remain accessible, inclusive, and fit for the next generation.
A significant proportion of this funding (£3.75 million) will be raised through a global capital fundraising campaign. This project will coincide with WAGGGS Centenary in 2028 and is an amazing opportunity to amplify the moment.
This role will lead the initial scoping and feasibility phase of the campaign- testing assumptions, shaping a compelling case for support, and laying the foundations for a successful multi-year appeal. The consultant will assess readiness, define strategy, and provide clear recommendations on campaign viability, structure, and resourcing.
Subject to successful scoping and organisational readiness, there is potential for this role to transition into a longer-term position leading campaign delivery.
About You:
We are looking for an experienced fundraising professional with a track record of developing and delivering major fundraising strategies, ideally including capital campaigns, feasibility studies, or significant growth projects. You have experience securing high-value support from trusts, foundations, institutional funders, major donors, or other philanthropic partners, and understand how to build compelling cases for investment.
A strategic thinker with strong relationship-building skills, you are comfortable engaging senior stakeholders, assessing fundraising potential, and translating complex projects into clear, evidence-based recommendations. You are motivated by the opportunity to help shape a once-in-a-generation campaign that will secure the future of WAGGGS' World Centres and their impact on generations of girls and young women around the world.
Key Responsibilities:
Please refer to the attached Job description for the detailed key responsibilities.
To apply for this role, please submit your CV and a Cover Letter.
In your Cover Letter, please highlight your relevant experience in fundraising and capital appeals, including any experience of campaign planning, feasibility assessments, major donor fundraising and developing cases for support, and tell us why you are interested in working with WAGGGS.
Please note applicants must have right to live and work in the UK.
We are the largest voluntary movement dedicated to empowering girls and young women in the world.
