Recruiter - High Value Fundraising at TPP Recruitment - Finding Excellent Fundraisers for Excellent Organisations

Be the first. Lead the way. Shape a brand-new major donor programme that will help ensure everyone gets the end-of-life care they deserve.

We’re hiring a Philanthropy Manager—and this isn’t just another fundraising role. You’ll be the first person in post, joining at a pivotal moment as we launch a dedicated strategy for high-value giving.

• Salary: £46,785 per annum
• Location: London (WC1X), hybrid working—1–2 days a week in the office
• Working pattern: Full time, 35 hours per week
• Contract: Permanent

Why this Philanthropy Manager role is different:

• You’ll shape and deliver our first major donor strategy—with time, budget and realistic targets set over four years
• You’ll be supported by experienced high-value fundraisers and a brilliant Chair of Trustees who is active in peer-to-peer engagement
• You’ll help steward new and existing supporters identified through wealth screening, and craft compelling donor journeys
• You’ll also lead on our celebrity ambassador relationships—bringing a creative, strategic edge to the role

This is a chance to build something lasting. You'll design engagement plans, create powerful cases for support, and lead on securing significant gifts—helping us to support both direct services and national hospice sector advocacy.

What you’ll find here:

• A close-knit Philanthropy Team of three (soon to be four) with a collaborative, values-led approach
• A supportive, flexible workplace that centres staff wellbeing and trusts you to work in a way that suits you
• Opportunities for development and growth—through autonomy, mentoring, and working alongside senior leaders
• The chance to connect major donors with work that truly matters: supporting children and adults to live well until the end

What we’re looking for in our Philanthropy Manager:

• Experience in major donor fundraising, including securing significant gifts and stewarding high-value supporters
• Strong written and verbal communication skills—you’ll know how to engage, persuade and inspire
• Confidence managing a donor pipeline and CRM, and an eye for detail when it comes to strategy and reporting
• A genuine passion for our mission, and an approach that reflects our values: inclusive, compassionate, collaborative, knowledgeable and innovative

Want to be part of a cause that touches every life, and help ensure compassionate care is there for everyone who needs it?

Apply by 10am on Monday 2 June 2025.

Interviews will take place in person in London on 9 and 10 June.
