Philanthropy manager and jobs

About The Role

This is an opportunity to shape the future direction of fundraising at the Royal British Legion in a role that blends strategic thinking, commercial awareness and collaboration across a large and ambitious directorate. As one of two Product Strategy Managers, you’ll take ownership of developing clear, insight-led strategies across a varied fundraising portfolio, helping teams understand where the biggest opportunities for growth sit and how different products can work together to create stronger audience engagement. Working across areas such as Regular Giving, Lottery, Legacy, Events and Philanthropy, you’ll play a key role in influencing how products are positioned, prioritised and developed for the future.

Come and be part of the leading Armed Forces charity, making a difference to the lives of those who have served to keep us safe and protect our way of life.

We’re looking for someone who enjoys operating at both a strategic and operational level, someone who can take complex information, audience insight and market research and turn it into practical, actionable plans that people can get behind. You’ll be confident building relationships with stakeholders across multiple teams, challenging existing ways of working and bringing people together around a shared direction. This role would suit someone who is naturally curious, commercially minded and comfortable working in a fast paced environment where priorities evolve and collaboration is essential. You’ll also have the opportunity to help shape new processes, improve ways of working and become a trusted expert within the directorate on product strategy and portfolio development.

Alongside the strategic focus, this is a role with real variety and visibility. You’ll work closely with senior colleagues across Acquisition and Development, Planning, Data, Market Research and Innovation, influencing how fundraising products are used across the supporter journey and helping ensure audiences are engaging with the right propositions at the right time. It’s a fantastic opportunity for someone with strong product strategy experience within the charity sector who wants to step into a highly collaborative role with genuine scope to influence future growth, bring fresh thinking to an evolving function and help shape how a major national charity approaches fundraising strategy moving forward.

Fundraising sits at the heart of The Royal British Legion’s 10-year strategy, and we’re investing in the people, skills and ideas that will drive growth and strengthen our support for the Armed Forces community. As one of the UK’s most trusted and recognisable charities, we have the reach and ambition to make a real difference, and this is your chance to be part of it. Our Fundraising portfolio is broad and dynamic, spanning major corporate partnerships to our sector leading charity Lottery. We’re investing in growth, evolving how we work, and putting supporters at the centre of everything we do. This is an exciting time to join us. You’ll be part of a collaborative, forward-thinking team, helping shape the future of our fundraising and the impact we achieve together.

If you are applying for multiple Fundraising roles at the same ‘Officer’ or ‘Manager’ title, you are welcome to use the same supporting statement across applications. However, we would encourage tailoring your statement where possible, particularly if applying for roles across different teams or titles.

You will be contracted to our Haig House hub with a minimum expectation of two days per week working in person at the hub and flexibility for working remotely/at home when not on site.

The Sandhurst Trust - an extraordinary community.

The Sandhurst Trust is the Academy’s independent charitable foundation and is responsible for securing philanthropic support for the Academy and its community, supporting expansion, innovation and initiatives that government funding alone cannot sustain. 

The Trust is at an inflection point. With new leadership and momentum, we are looking for exceptional development professionals to help build a once-in-a-generation philanthropic programme for an institution whose purpose has never felt more urgent.

As Content & Communications Manager, you will develop a communications plan and shape the way the Trust connects with its global alumni community, makes the case for support, and tells the story of its impact to donors, partners, and prospects.

Working closely with the CEO and Director of Alumni Engagement and Regular Giving, you will lead the development of high-quality content across the full fundraising lifecycle, from articulating a compelling Case for Support and crafting tailored donor materials, to designing campaigns that drive regular giving participation and ensuring every event is supported by communications that reinforce engagement and stewardship.

This is a role for a creative, audience-focused communicator who understands how great storytelling drives philanthropic action. You will own all communications channels, email, web, social and beyond, and act as the guardian of the Trust's tone, brand and editorial standards, ensuring that everything produced reflects the heritage, quality and ambition of one of Britain's most storied institutions.

This role offers something that is genuinely rare in the fundraising profession: the opportunity to build something exceptional from the ground up, at a cornerstone British institution whose story, community and moment in time combine to make the case for philanthropy almost uniquely compelling. The Sandhurst Trust is looking to build a team full of passion and ambition so if this sounds like you, we would love to hear from you.
