We are seeking an enthusiastic and proactive fundraiser to develop and maintain strong relationships with donors and partners, while providing high-level administrative and communications support to the department. The post-holder will play a key role in contributing to securing funding for all aspects of the School’s work.

    • Student scholarships and bursaries
    • Capital projects
    • Academic and creative initiatives
  • Work with the Head of Development & Communications to manage a portfolio of Trusts and Foundations, helping to retain existing support through:

    • Timely and effective donor communications
    • Meetings, reporting, and stewardship
  • Take responsibility for the day-to-day management of the ‘Friends of Rambert School’ scheme, including:

    • Maintaining a database of renewals
    • Coordinating engagement opportunities
  • Use research and communication skills to:

    • Identify new fundraising prospects in the UK and abroad
    • Assist in preparing compelling proposals and applications to secure support for the School and its students
