Head of Income & Engagement

Driving growth, influence and life saving visibility for Papyrus

Papyrus is recruiting a Head of Income & Engagement to provide strategic leadership across two critical areas - Fundraising and Marketing & Communications.

Reporting directly to the Chief Executive and working closely with the Senior Leadership Team, you will play a central role in shaping how Papyrus grows its income, strengthens its brand and reaches new audiences — not for organisational prominence, but to ensure that young people, families and communities know where to turn for support, hope and practical help when they need it most.

One of your early priorities will be to bring together our Income Generation and Marketing & Communications teams, creating a cohesive, collaborative function with shared purpose, aligned strategy and a strong collective identity.

You will lead the development of ambitious income strategies—particularly through corporate partnerships, grants and trusts, and the passion of our committed supporter community—while also setting the direction for our brand identity, campaigns, media presence and digital engagement.

In a challenging financial climate, you will champion innovation, build powerful external relationships, and ensure Papyrus maintains a strong, values led voice across press, social and broadcast media. You will inspire colleagues, partners and supporters to help us grow our reach, our reputation and our impact — always keeping young people at the centre of every decision.

Who we are:

Hope is here. The Global Returns Project (GRP) is a UK charity unlocking new philanthropy to deliver urgent solutions for our planet.

We are a fast-moving nonprofit that makes donations to high-impact nature and climate charities simple – and we don’t take any fees. We’ve already mobilised over £3 million for top environmental solutions and are working to unlock at least £30 million annually by the end of the decade.

We are growing quickly: Last year's annual fundraising was 275% higher than the previous year.

The problem: Charities protecting our planet can turn the tide on climate change and nature loss. They have the skills, strategies and networks to deliver fast and global impact. But less than 2% of philanthropy goes to climate mitigation.

Our solution: In the UK alone, around £2 trillion sits with “HNW+” individuals – those holding between £100k and £30 million. Yet traditional philanthropy largely overlooks them. We’re unlocking this funding by offering trusted, pro bono advice and a simple, portfolio approach to giving. Our expertise in UK wealth advice offers a unique path to scalability and systems-change.

What we are looking for:

Job Title: Senior Philanthropy Officer

We’re looking for a confident, capable fundraiser to play a key role in major-gift fundraising – helping to secure transformational support from high-net-worth individuals.

You’ll manage your own portfolio of prospects and donors, contributing across the full fundraising cycle: prospecting, cultivation, making direct asks, closing and stewardship. Alongside this, you’ll support the development of relationships with wealth advisers to generate referral leads, while also prospecting independently for major gifts.

The ideal candidate will be excited to build networks of wealth managers, private-client teams and other advisers to HNWIs, and to convert adviser introductions into committed support. You’ll complement this with proactive outreach to identify and engage new major donors beyond existing referral channels.

To succeed, you’ll develop strong fluency across three distinct fundraising pitches: a business case for advisers; an impact case to persuade donors to support our portfolio charities; and a systems-change case to win backing for GRP’s operating costs (salaries, office costs, etc) to keep the charity running fee-free.

You’ll be comfortable making direct asks for funding, ideally with experience of securing significant gifts or multi-year commitments. You’ll be hands-on in day-to-day fundraising activity and able to manage multiple relationships and priorities effectively.

You’ll thrive in a small, fast-moving team—taking initiative, being collaborative, and contributing to shared goals. Crucially, you’ll care deeply about climate and nature.

Experience required:

Strong experience in frontline fundraising (as a guide, likely 3-6 years).

Please see the full job description attached for information on skills required and main duties and responsibilities.

Location: Centrally located, light and airy office on Regent Street, London. Estimated two days per week in the office. 

Benefits: 20 days’ annual leave (pro-rata), plus statutory bank holidays (pro-rata). Occasional 1–2 days’ additional paid leave over Christmas period. Flexible working.

Reports to: CEO

Preferred start date: Monday 29th June 2026. Applications reviewed on rolling basis.

Position: Senior Philanthropy Officer – Trusts and Foundations Maternity cover up to 1-year.

Salary: £36,000-38,000 per annum

Reports to: Senior Trusts & Foundations Manager

Location: Shoreditch, East London (Hybrid Model)

Key relationships: UK for UNHCR Head of Philanthropy and Philanthropy Team, Individual Giving Team, UNHCR Private Sector Partnerships division
