Philanthropy Executive

Philanthropy Executive

At Cystic Fibrosis Trust, we're working towards a brighter future for everyone with cystic fibrosis (CF) by funding cutting-edge research, driving up standards of care and supporting people with the condition and their loved ones every step of the way.

This is an exciting role within a great team that provides the opportunity to build experience across different areas of high value fundraising - particularly major donors and trusts and foundations, but also an opportunity to learn about corporate partnerships. The role sits within a friendly, supportive and ambitious Philanthropy and Corporate Partnerships fundraising team. 

Your key responsibilities will be to manage Cystic Fibrosis Trust’s successful high level giving club - the Sixty-Five Roses Club, and to secure donations from philanthropic trusts and foundations through our small trusts mailing programme. There will also be the opportunity to develop your own portfolio of trusts and foundations and high net worth individuals, as well as supporting the wider team with research and event planning. These are key activities to help to achieve the team’s income targets.  

We’re looking for someone who is creative, great at building relationships, has an engaging communication style and is keen to develop their skills in high value fundraising. If this sounds like the right role for you and if you think you would fit well within a friendly and high-performing team, please get in touch! 

We offer a range of benefits including flexible working, 30 days annual leave plus bank holidays, opportunities for learning and development, pension, healthcare cash plan and more.

Closing date for completed applications is midnight on Monday 14 April 2025.

Interviews expected week commencing Monday 21 April 2025.

We reserve the right to bring forward the closing date if necessary.  Therefore, if you are interested in this role, please submit your application as early as possible.
