You'll play a pivotal role in securing the vital investment needed to expand our life-changing work. If you're a dynamic leader with a proven ability to secure major gifts and a passion for seeing lives transformed, we would love to hear from you.

CAP celebrates the value of diversity and our aim is for our workforce to be as inclusive as possible as well as representing the communities we serve. With this in mind, we welcome and encourage job applications from people of all backgrounds. We particularly welcome applications from candidates from black and ethnic minority backgrounds. We are committed to continue building an environment that embraces diversity and includes all.

Context

We are building a church-based movement against poverty, delivering the right messages at the right times to inspire action and support. Our goal is to strengthen the CAP supporter and church movement to "Face it, Fight it, End it - Together."

We inspire our supporters to give, act, and pray, demonstrating hope to those burdened by debt and poverty. We highlight how God uses CAP to mobilise people and churches, transforming lives, churches, communities and society itself.

We are driven to raise the necessary funds and partnerships needed to achieve CAP's vision of transformed lives, thriving churches, and an end to UK poverty. We collaborate with other fundraising and communications teams to provide a fantastic and rewarding supporter experience.

Purpose

The Head of Philanthropy, reporting to the Director of Fundraising, is responsible for leading and growing CAP's major donor income, cultivating and stewarding high-value relationships, and building and mentoring a high-performing Philanthropy Team.

They themselves will be an experienced and confident relationship builder, communicator and fundraiser, cultivating relationships with high-value donors and partners to achieve ambitious targets.

Passion

Our supporters are more than donors, they are a crucial part of the work we do. We are passionate about ensuring our supporters feel connected, engaged, inspired and committed to tackling poverty in the UK through CAP. We want to give our supporters the best experience of Christians Against Poverty.

Our philanthropic fundraising is moving into a new era in Christians Against Poverty.  We have recently launched our new strategy and within it state the need to have a more diverse fundraising strategy that draws income from a range of types of sources. A particular area that is highlighted is the need to develop our work in the area of major donors "transitioning to a dedicated team of managing our donor relationships on a day-to-day basis." We have recently been developing our CRM (salesforce), upskilling staff and developing our case for support in order to have a robust foundation on which to build our philanthropy strategy.
