About the role
Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) is responding to the largest emergency in our 40+ year history. Over the last two years support for our cause has seen significant growth in income as tens of thousands of supporters have joined MAP, including individuals, trusts, foundations and corporates. Our challenge now is to retain this interest and ensure we sustain income as we respond to the ongoing emergency and the longer-term health of Palestinians over the coming years. With an ambition to be a £50m organisation by 2028, the supporter operations and insights team will play a vital role in enabling over one million Palestinians to access improved healthcare annually by 2028.
We’re looking for a strategic and people‑focused leader to head up our Supporter Operations and Insights team. A newly expanded team, this senior role will ensure our supporters receive an outstanding experience, while overseeing supporter operations, supplier management, data quality and insights. You’ll work closely with Fundraising and Finance colleagues to ensure income is processed accurately; deliver insights that drive decision‑making; and ensure operations are compliant and effective.
Many of our systems and processes are on a journey to be made fit for purpose, including a new CRM (MS Dynamics) which is currently being implemented with the support of the Digital, Data and Technology team within the Chief Operating Officer’s team.
If you’re an experienced leader with a passion for supporter experience and a commitment to MAP’s mission and values, apply now. We will be reviewing applications as we receive them.
What is the role about?

What will you be responsible for?
You’ll lead supporter care, operations and the performance and insights teams, manage key suppliers, work closely with Finance on income reconciliation, and turn data into insight that shapes fundraising decisions.

Who is this role for?
This role is ideal for an experienced leader, or manager who has the potential to step up, and is from a charity or customer‑focused organisation.

- Keep thank you letters up to date with new stories to show the impact of their donations.
- Respond to the cancellation of donations thanking the supporter for their gifts and ensure that the cancellation was planned.
Data and insights
- Ensure all supporter information and interactions are captured accurately, up to date and stored in the fundraising CRM in line with GDPR and organisational policies to allow LCM to maximise income.

- Support the delivery of fundraising appeals, events, and supporter journeys.
- Collaborate with colleagues across the fundraising team to deliver outstanding supporter experiences.
- Maximise income by ensuring gift aid declarations are correct and up to date giving supporters every opportunity to opt in.
Donation processing and administration
- Accurately set up new direct debits and Gift Aid declarations.
- During staff absence support the recording and reconciliation of donations if necessary.
Fundraising and supporter partnerships team
- Represent LCM at external events and conferences each year where the SPO will be expected to communicate LCM’s vision with a passion for and understanding of the gospel message, as well as share their personal journey of faith in Jesus Christ.
- Provide support and take part in meetings, activities and events in the Fundraising and Supporter Partnerships Team.
- Fully participate in the spiritual life of the Mission including attending the annual week of prayer, the monthly Team Day and daily staff prayers.
This role is based in London City Mission office in Tower Bridge Road and will involve occasional UK travel.

- Clear Christian values underpinning all we do

This job description is not intended to be exclusive or exhaustive. It is an outline indication of activity and will be amended in the light of LCM’s changing needs.
Occupational requirement:
London City Mission (LCM) is an organisation committed to preaching the Christian gospel to the people of London.
The Supporter Partnerships Officer plays a key part in managing Partnerships with individual supporters for the London City Mission. It is essential that he/she must personally own, communicate and implement the aims and objectives of the Mission as he/she will be the first point of contact with supporters, including written, telephone and face to face. LCM deeply values its relationships with supporters, some of whom have been giving to and praying for the work for decades.
Many of our supporters know our staff by name because of personal conversations they have had around their personal faith and how we have responded to requests for prayer. We seek to build relationships with individuals over time and connections are often made as we share stories of personal Christian faith and how this motivates us to be a part of gospel work.
On this basis, we consider there is a prima facie case that the person appointed in this role be an evangelical Christian.
Employees are required to agree to the Mission’s Statement of Faith and Conduct.
