Crucially, your work will empower colleagues, engage donors and underpin strategic decisions across our university-wide campaigns.

Who are we looking for?

We’re looking for someone who thrives on complexity, brings real rigour to their work, and understands the power of great data to drive change. You'll take ownership of our CRM (Blackbaud’s Senator), lead data integrity initiatives, manage high-value donation processes, and partner with senior stakeholders across the institution to ensure everything we do meets the highest standards of compliance, efficiency and impact.

If you're driven by making systems work better, collaborating across departments, and seeing the direct results of your efforts on campaigns that matter, this could be your ideal next step. Join a team that’s passionate, values-driven and ambitious, at a university that’s rich in history and bold in its future. Apply now and help us build something lasting.
