Job description

Save the Children UK has an exciting opportunity for a collaborative and influential individual with extensive relationship fundraising experience to join us as our Legacy & Mid-Value Relationship Manager, where you will work with colleagues across Marketing, Philanthropy, Community Fundraising, Volunteering, Retail and Supporter Care to build meaningful supporter journeys and drive long-term impact for children.

This is a hybrid role working from our London Farringdon, with on-site presence required up to 4 days per month. This will be discussed during the interview process.

About Us

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

About the role

As Legacy & Mid-Value Relationship Manager, you will be responsible for developing and managing the one-to-one aspects of our Legacy and Mid-Value supporter cultivation programmes.

Through bespoke communications, calls, events, and meetings, you'll deepen relationships with our most engaged supporters—understanding their motivations and helping them fulfil their charitable goals.

This is a unique opportunity to play a central role in shaping and delivering meaningful supporter experiences that drive increased lifetime value and long-term loyalty to Save the Children.

In this role, you will:

• Personally steward a portfolio of engaged supporters through tailored one-to-one communications, including calls, letters, emails, and meetings.

• Use supporter insight to create tailored stewardship plans that inspire legacy pledges and mid-value donations (currently £300 - £10,000 pa/).

• Work with colleagues across Marketing, Philanthropy, Community Fundraising, Volunteering, Retail and Supporter Care to identify and cultivate potential legacy and mid-value leads.

• Plan and deliver inspiring cultivation events, both in-person and online, to retain and grow supporter engagement.

• Analyse and adapt stewardship approaches based on supporter feedback and performance results to maximise impact.

• Advocate for legacy and mid-value giving across the organisation, sharing expertise and insights to strengthen our overall fundraising approach.

About you

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Demonstrable expertise in supporter stewardship, ideally in Legacy and/or Mid-Value fundraising, with a focus on increasing lifetime value.

• Proven experience building and managing impactful relationships with individual supporters, including high-quality one-to-one communications.

• Experience delivering bespoke supporter events that inspire and build trust.

• Ability to work collaboratively across teams, balancing strategic planning with hands-on delivery.

• Strong interpersonal, written, and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence and engage a wide range of stakeholders.

• A strategic and supporter-centric mindset, with a commitment to innovation and continuous improvement.

• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.

What we offer you

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.

We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.

To learn more about the position, please review the Job Description in the attached Documents.

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:

The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 4 days per month). This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion:

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
