Job Details
After a highly successful 20/21, the NSPCC’s Philanthropy team is keen to maintain the positive momentum it has established and is looking for a London based Philanthropy Manager to help raise the funds needed to continue the NSPCC’s fight for every childhood.
The Philanthropy team is part of the NSPCC’s Major Donors department. We focus upon high level, individual donors and are responsible for securing major gifts ranging from four to seven figures. Our success is founded upon building high quality and enduring relationships between the NSPCC and those with the capacity to make transformational gifts.
The Philanthropy Manager post works at the heart of a strong and friendly team, collaborating closely with colleagues across different fundraising functions and at all levels of the organisation. We have a strong service presence in London and there will be opportunities to meet our service delivery colleagues and learn more about the incredible programmes we deliver, ensuring you’re fully immersed in the issues and able to inspire both new and prospective donors to give.
An ideal position for an energetic deal-maker, you will be responsible for existing high value relationships but you will also have a focus on new business, generating new prospects, building lasting relationships and making asks for substantial financial gifts.
You will…
- have great people skills and the credibility to operate within our audience stream.
- have the “get up and go” to work in a new business environment.
- be an excellent manager of professional relationships, proactive, self-motivated and organised.
- be comfortable with targets and able to deal with competing priorities.
- enjoy working collaboratively with other colleagues, teams and departments.
- have first class written skills, able to tell our story in a compelling way.
- have the ability and willingness to travel around London for meetings.
- and of course, share our passion for keeping children safe.
Above all, you will relish getting out, identifying new prospects and asking them to support the NSPCC.
If you’ve worked with high value donors or clients, have generated new business or can demonstrate great account management, we’d welcome your application.
Company
NSPCC (the National Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children) is a large national charity which campaigns to end child abuse and provides a range of services to children, young people and families throughout Great Britain, Northern Ireland and the Channel Islands. NSPCC has 1,830 employees, 11,000 volunteers and an annual income of £134 million. Founded in 1884, NSPCC is governed by Royal Charter, first granted by Queen Victoria in 1895.
NSPCC specialises in child protection. It is the only UK children’s charity with statutory powers to intervene on behalf of children, powers which have existed for more than a century. In England, Wales and Northern Ireland, only local authorities and the NSPCC can apply to a court for a care, supervision, or child assessment order.
NSPCC provides 24/7 helplines for both adults and children. The NSPCC helpline supports thousands of parents, professionals and families. Adults can contact by phone or online in order to get advice or share their concerns about a child, anonymously if necessary. The helpline is staffed by professional practitioners with backgrounds in areas such as teaching, health and social work. Professionals such as teachers and doctors are also encouraged to contact the helpline for information and guidance. NSPCC says the number of calls and online contacts to the helpline is increasing year by year.
ChildLine, NSPCC’s free 24/7 counselling service for children, marks its 30th anniversary during 2016. Trained ChildLine counsellors talk to children, helping them with any problems they're facing. In 2014-15, there were nearly 300,000 counselling sessions carried out between young people and ChildLine. The most common issues were family relationships, low self-esteem and unhappiness, abuse, bullying and online bullying and self-harm.
NSPCC also has over 40 service centres across the UK and the Channel Islands. At these centres, the charity works directly with children and families on a range of issues, such as protecting children from sexual abuse, drugs and alcohol misuse and neglect.
The charity also visits 9-11 year olds in schools across the country through the NSPCC Schools Service, helping them to understand what abuse is and giving them the confidence to speak out and seek help if they ever need it.
In addition to its London headquarters, NSPCC has regional offices in Luton (East of England region), Gillingham (London & South East region), Leeds (Northern region), Birmingham (West Midlands region), Plymouth (South West region), St Helier (Jersey), Belfast (Northern Ireland) and Glasgow (Scotland).
