This charity supports the 17,000 staff and 2 million patients of the Royal Free London NHS Foundation Trust, across Barnet, Chase Farm, North Mid and Royal Free hospitals, plus over 30 NHS services. The Royal Free Charity is now preparing for an ambitious £50million fundraising campaign in support of a ground-breaking £100million cancer centre.

As the Senior Campaign Manager, you will lead on developing and implementing a comprehensive Trusts & Foundations strategy to secure six- and seven-figure gifts in support of the Join the Future Capital Campaign for the new Cancer Centre. This role will identify, cultivate, and steward relationships with Trusts and Foundations to secure income in line with campaign targets.

To be successful within this Senior Campaign Manager role, you will have proven experience of securing income from trusts and foundations. You will have examples of securing six- or seven-figure gifts, and ideally have capital campaign knowledge and experience. Collaborating with various stakeholders internally and externally, this person will also be a good communicator and able to build strong long-term relationships.
