working, giving group presentations and delivering pitches at various levels, and

leading on their facilitation.

d) Attending networking opportunities in Cambridge, London and the surrounding

areas to represent CBM and to engage potential major donors in our work

2. Stewardship and cultivation of current and active donors:

a) Developing and implementing tailored cultivation and stewardship plans, so that

individuals are engaged in a bespoke manner, ensuring that they feel a part of CBM

and that their generosity is recognised, through regular reporting, interactions,

updates and tailored approaches.

b) Developing donor-centric applications, proposals and initial approaches (by post,

email, phone and face-to-face) that are driven by insight on donors’ individual needs

and preferences and are tailored to their interests and requirements, following up as

required.

c) Reporting to donors in both formal and informal ways, as appropriate, to ensure

they are kept up to date with CBM, the impact of their grant and project

developments.

d) Hosting and facilitating face-to-face and online meetings with high-level donors,

including organising dates, venues and agendas/ talking points, and creating

Meeting Briefs for all attendees to ensure positive outcomes as far as possible.

e) Promoting the importance of legacies, and legacy income, where appropriate, and

to steward those who have pledged.

f) Organising and managing the successful delivery of at least one Major Donor Event

annually (cultivation, stewardship, thanking etc), to ensure positive relations and

potential new business, in collaboration with our Fundraising and Programme

colleagues.

g) Supporting the Head of Philanthropy and the Philanthropy Officer on the

identification, stewardship and cultivation of potential corporate partners.

3. Proposal and Report Writing

a) Crafting compelling proposals and reports that meet the bespoke needs of major

donors whilst meeting the needs of CBM and our Programme delivery colleagues,

within agreed deadlines.

where necessary, and contributing to the creation of yearly fundraising budgets and

plans and quarterly Board Reports.

c) Establishing, monitoring and reporting on key performance indicators, milestones

and targets to facilitate informed decisions and improved working practice.

5. Other

Based in the St Helena Government UK Office, London

Self Employed - 1 year with the possibility of a 1-year extension -available January 2025

Enjoying unique lifestyle opportunities, St Helena Island is a self-governing overseas territory of the United Kingdom. Although better placed to develop economically and socially as a result of opening our international airport in 2017, we are not at the stage of self-sufficiency and therefore remain dependent on UK government aid.

St Helena is in receipt of financial aid which supports a significant amount of the operational costs of running key public services. In addition, St Helena also receives donor funding for key sectors such as infrastructure development and conservation from donors including HMG, the EU and the UN.  Reliance on a small number of donors puts finding continued investment and support into the Island at risk.  With uncertainty around future sources and the loss of EU funding it is important to develop alternative sources of income; this includes the continued support to the UK-St Helena Heritage Trust, a UK charity, and to fundraise for heritage projects on St Helena. Your role will be vital in exploring new funding opportunities, including through the UK-St Helena Heritage Trust, to broaden the number of donors.

You will identify and secure additional sources of funding for St Helena, preparing key documentation and ensuring donor-specific monitoring arrangements are in place. Setting up and managing systems to gather intelligence on funding opportunities from new and existing funding streams, you must track, assimilate and disseminate this intelligence.

Experienced in a similar role and educated to degree level or equivalent, you will have already secured external funding for an organisation. Your background is in Public Sector or Non-Governmental organisations, and you understand the requirements of the Charities Commission. Politically astute, you have worked in culturally diverse organisations and in the development sector at national or international level. You have experience of the international institutional funding landscape and country-level funding and understand the needs of major funding bodies, multilateral development agencies, philanthropic funding sources etc.

The fee based on a self-employed basis will be £20k based on 6 days per month.
