Through a focused portfolio of programmes spanning Islamic Studies, contextual leadership and Classical Arabic, alongside research across theology, philosophy, ethics, education and social institutions, Cambridge Muslim College brings traditional scholarship into dialogue with the modern world. Operating on a deliberately small, high-quality scale, the College has around 100 students, many of whom are supported through scholarships funded by a committed donor community. With income primarily philanthropic, fundraising is central to the College’s ability to invest in its teaching, research and public programmes.
Cambridge Muslim College is now focused on strengthening its long-term fundraising strategy and sustainability. The College has an established and diverse fundraising programme encompassing major donors, regular giving, campaigns and corporate partnerships, with significant opportunities to deepen existing donor relationships and develop new sources of support. This includes growing major giving beyond the annual Ramadan period, further developing the College’s Friends and Patrons programme, and building new corporate and international partnerships.

- Identify, cultivate and secure new funding opportunities across a diverse funding base

- Strengthen regular giving and donor engagement through the College’s Friends and Patrons programme
- Develop corporate partnerships and explore opportunities to grow international giving
- Strengthen fundraising systems, pipeline management, stewardship and reporting
- Oversee communications and digital engagement, ensuring activity supports fundraising and engagement objectives
- Line manage and support the Development Coordinator and Communications Coordinator
Essential skills and experience:
- Multi-income stream fundraising experience, which must include major donors plus either corporate fundraising or regular giving/membership schemes
- A track record of securing significant five-figure or six-figure gifts from high-net-worth individuals
- Strong relationship-building and networking skills, with credibility engaging donors, partners and senior stakeholders
- Experience developing compelling cases for support and effective stewardship strategies

- The ability to build trusted relationships with donors and stakeholders within Muslim communities
- Strong verbal and written communication skills
- Experience overseeing public-facing communications and digital channels
- The ability to provide effective leadership and direction to a small team
