Job description

We are seeking our first Head of Fundraising to join our Senior Leadership Team, build the function and leave a legacy.

Reporting directly to the Chief Executive, you will lead on developing and delivering our fundraising strategy, with primary focus on trusts and foundations and corporate partnerships, with the potential to grow individual philanthropy in the future.

You will be a key ambassador for the organisation, building and managing strong, long-term relationships with funders who share our mission. You’ll bring vision, strategic clarity and emotional intelligence to developing compelling cases for support, always ensuring alignment with organisational goals and understanding that for us, income is a vehicle to impact.

You’ll manage and develop one Senior Officer initially, with the possibility that we may be able to expand the team as income grows. The Senior Officer post is currently empty, so we hope that you’ll be able to be involved in the recruitment of this post enabling you to shape your own team. You’ll also play a wider role in shaping the organisation’s strategy and culture as part of a collaborative and ambitious leadership team.

Key responsibilities:

Strategy and Leadership

  • Lead development and execution of a fundraising strategy focused on trusts,foundations and corporates (with a possible addition of individual philanthropy further down the line).
  • Act as a member of the Senior Leadership Team, contributing to organisational strategy, planning and culture, and supporting the Chief Executive to report to the board on fundraising.
  • Manage, develop and grow the Senior Officer role; build a high-performing team.

Fundraising and Relationship Management

  • Create and manage a pipeline of funding opportunities, securing multi-year grants and strategic partnerships that support our research, policy and delivery ambitions, and reflect our values.
  • Lead the development of major funding bids - including drafting proposals and coordinating input from SLT colleagues and other relevant team members.
  • Cultivate, steward and deepen relationships with existing and prospective funders, acting as a confident and credible ambassador.
  • Collaborate closely with colleagues to develop strong proposals, cases for support and pitch materials, including engaging in depth with some of the complex research that we seek to fund.
  • Represent the organisation externally — in meetings, networks and events.

Innovation, Growth and Sustainability

  • Develop and test models to diversify income to enable impact – building on our current strategy, but bringing an open mind to exploring new activities.
  • Embed fundraising monitoring, evaluation and performance reporting into the organisation; ensure transparency with senior leadership and trustees.
  • Maintain close alignment between fundraising strategy and organisational strategy, ensuring funder relationships are ethical, values-aligned and sustainable.

About you: 

We’re seeking someone who is ambitious, driven and emotionally intelligent — a relationship-builder ready to step into a senior leadership role and leave a legacy.

Essential

  • A proven track record of securing significant income from trusts, foundations and/or corporate partners.
  • Experience in managing complex relationships with funders, with excellent stewardship and retention skills.
  • Experience of running reliable due diligence processes to assess funding opportunities.
  • Able to translate research, policy or innovation-led programmes into compelling funding propositions.
  • Excellent project management skills, including the capacity to coordinate colleagues in developing complex fundraising bids.
  • Some experience of line management, team development or mentoring.
  • Excellent written, verbal and influencing skills, able to engage funders, senior leaders and colleagues.
  • Strategic mindset, with capacity to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment.
  • A genuine passion for the mission of the Money and Mental Health Policy Institute, and the empathy to engage with lived experience perspectives.
  • Alignment with our collaborative and flexible working culture — able to work in a high-trust environment, collaborate openly with colleagues across multiple teams and contribute positively to team wellbeing and culture.

Desirable

  • Experience of major donor fundraising, or exploring new income streams.
  • Experience of reporting to a board, including of producing high level board papers and working with high profile stakeholders.
  • Knowledge or networks within the essential services, health, research, policy or grant-giving sectors.

Terms:

  • Reporting to: Chief Executive
  • Staff supervised: One team member, who we hope you will be able to be involved in recruiting
  • Annual Gross Salary: £64,800 (employees who are not London-based receive the same salary, including London weighting, but cover their own travel costs to the office, typically twice a month)
  • Location: Either London-based, with two days per week in Money and Mental Health’s East London office, or home-based with the ability to travel to London at least twice per month. The role will also require some travel for meetings.
  • Hours: Both full-time and part-time applicants considered, at a minimum of four days per week. Job shares, consolidated hours and other flexible working arrangements will be considered. Please indicate your preferred working hours on application.
  • Contract type: Permanent
  • Holidays: 28 days per year (including 3 days between Christmas and New Year when the office is closed), plus bank holidays
  • Pension: Opportunity to be enrolled in the workplace pension scheme (subject to meeting standard auto-enrolment qualifying criteria). After enrolment, the charity contributes the equivalent of 5.5% of monthly gross salary, subject to an employee contribution of at least 2.5%.
  • Other benefits:
    • Every team member has a personal training budget, with many internal training opportunities.
    • Cycle to Work and season ticket loan schemes.
    • Enhanced maternity/paternity/parental leave terms, offered at an equal rate: employees eligible for statutory maternity/paternity/shared parental pay receive 90% of earnings for up to 12 weeks.
    • Rental deposit loan scheme.
    • A flexible working culture: core working hours are 10am–3pm, with flexibility outside these times (agreed with management) for employees to distribute working hours across the week.
