Transform young lives through the power of philanthropy
At Godolphin and Latymer, we're not just raising funds, we're creating life-changing opportunities for talented students regardless of their financial circumstances.
As our next Director of Development, you will have the support of our Senior Leadership Team and engaged alumnae who are committed to building philanthropic success in the long term, and who understand the value which development brings to the School. Despite global economic challenges, our Development Office consistently raises significant funds for bursaries - and we're ready to aim even higher with the right Director of Development.
This is no ordinary Development role
The Godolphin and Latymer School seeks an exceptional Director of Development to lead our philanthropic strategy in collaboration with the Head. Our bursary programme currently supports 80 students; but with the right person in post, we aim to significantly increase this number, diversifying our school community and changing more young lives.
The Director of Development will work closely with the Head to develop and implement a sustainable development strategy, focussing on major gifts. The ideal candidate will elevate the School's engagement strategy through innovative events, strategic communications, and meaningful relationship-building with the school’s community ensuring high standards across all engagement and fundraising activities.
The Director of Development will manage the Development Office, currently a team of three, with responsibility for developing both potential within the team and fundraising programmes and process.
Collaboration, communication and positive professional relationships are key to this role. The most successful school development programmes are built, not on transactions, but on relationships - with donors, with colleagues, with school leadership, and with the broader School community. The ideal candidate will understand that relationships drive results. Not only will the successful candidate bring major gift fundraising experience, but they will also be adept at cultivating relationships with high-net-worth individuals and have a deep understanding of how to inspire others and get the best from their team.
What makes this role exceptional:
● Direct collaboration with the Head to develop and implement a sustainable development strategy
● Focus on major gifts fundraising for real impact
● Support from committed stakeholders who understand the long-term value development brings
● Opportunity to significantly diversify our school community
The ideal candidate:
● Has proven major gift fundraising experience
● Excels at cultivating relationships with high-net-worth individuals
● Understands that relationships - not transactions - drive results
● Can inspire others and bring out the best in their team
● Believes in the transformative power of education
The salary will be commensurate with the post and will depend upon qualifications and experience.
If you're an experienced Director of Development, Head of Philanthropy or major gifts or you are an experienced Deputy and are ready for the next step, we invite you to submit your application outlining how your experience matches our requirements.
