Job description

Lucy Cavendish College are seeking an experienced and motivated fundraiser to take on the role of Deputy Development Director to drive forward our major gift and legacy fundraising strategies. If you're inspired by our mission and passionate about helping talented students from all backgrounds succeed, this could be the perfect role for you.

Deputy Development Director
Location:
Onsite, Cambridge, CB3 0BU with the option of occasional home working
Salary: Circa £50k
Job Type: Full-time, 37.5 hours per week (with occasional out-of-hours and travel commitments)

Lucy Cavendish College is a trailblazer at the University of Cambridge, dedicated to welcoming exceptional students from historically excluded and under-represented backgrounds. We don’t just open the doors to Cambridge; we ensure our students thrive, contributing their unique perspectives to tackle the grand challenges of our time. With a mission to foster enterprising mindsets, we prepare students to make a positive contribution to society. Our vibrant, diverse, and inclusive environment is what makes us stand out.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Fundraising Leadership: Manage a portfolio of 150+ prospects, with a focus on cultivating mid-level giving, building relationships, and ensuring exceptional donor stewardship.
  • Alumni and Legacy Giving: Collaborate with the Development Officer on alumni giving and legacy fundraising strategies, including managing initiatives such as the Anna Bidder Society.
  • Strategic Planning: Develop and implement a five-year strategy for the College’s annual fund and legacy programmes.
  • Team Leadership: Line manage the Development Officers, offering guidance, motivation, and support to meet key objectives.
  • Donor Engagement: Ensure a high-quality donor experience through impactful stewardship, including producing the College’s annual Impact Report.
  • Operational Excellence: Oversee HR functions and manage key systems within the Development Office, such as the Raiser’s Edge database.

About You:

We are looking for a proactive and organised individual who can work independently and as part of a small, dedicated team. The ideal candidate will have:

  • A degree or equivalent experience.
  • Proven experience in fundraising, ideally within a higher education setting.
  • Excellent relationship-building skills, with experience working with donors, volunteers, or other stakeholders.
  • Exceptional communication skills, capable of conveying fundraising ideas and updates to a variety of audiences.
  • Strong IT skills, particularly in managing relational databases (experience with Raiser’s Edge is an advantage).
  • A flexible approach to working hours and travel, and a genuine alignment with the College’s mission of diversity and inclusion.

Why Join Us?

At Lucy Cavendish College, we are proud of our commitment to diversity and inclusion, ensuring that 90+% of our UK undergraduates come from state schools and a significant proportion from low-income or under-represented backgrounds. Our international students come from over 80 countries, with a growing number supported by our fundraising efforts to study from less developed or under-represented regions.

You’ll have the chance to shape the future of fundraising in this unique College, supporting our students who defy convention and exceed expectations. You will work closely with senior leadership, dedicated colleagues, and an engaged alumni community to make a real difference in the lives of our students.
