If so, join Save the Children as Head of Legacy and Mid-Value, where you will lead a high-performing team to deliver ambitious income and supporter engagement goals by growing two of our most critical and high potential fundraising programmes.
About Us
We are Save the Children. Together we create lasting change with and for children. In the UK and around the world, we influence policy and legal changes, share our expertise and skills with others and bring in new approaches in order to increase our impact for children. We are dedicated to reducing hunger and malnutrition, reducing child poverty, improving health, reducing violence against children and increasing access to a quality education. In this way we help give children a fair chance at a future they deserve.
About the role
As our Head of Legacy and Mid-Value, you will lead the dedicated Legacy and Mid-Value Squad to set and deliver predominantly one-to-many direct marketing strategies that will allow us to unlock the great potential we have within our large and committed supporter-base for donors to give at a higher level either during their life-time and/or by leaving a legacy for children.
You will work within a scrum (championing agile ways of working within the team) to deliver ambitious results and will collaborate closely with the other teams across Fundraising and Marketing as well as contributing to global communities of specialists in Legacy and Mid-Value fundraising.
In this role, you will:
- Lead the Legacy Engagement and Mid-value Squad to create top-tier fundraising programs.
- Develop and implement integrated plans, budgets, and forecasts for Legacy, In-memory, and mid-value fundraising to achieve long-term goals.
- Establish and maintain a clear vision to achieve the Squad's objectives over various time frames.
- Collaborate closely with the Loyalty Squad, Regional teams, and the Philanthropy team to execute the strategy.
- Create and apply new strategies to promote legacies to key groups like volunteers, high-value donors, and in-memory donors.
- Oversee supporter relationship management and pipeline development for both programs.
- Use data to continually optimize our work for the best use of resources and highest income in the mid to long term.
- Support squad members to independently complete tasks for maximum impact.
- Advocate for the needs of legacy and mid-value audiences in cross-organizational projects.
About you
To be successful, it is important that you have:
- Proven experience of providing effective and inspiring leadership
- A good understanding of legacy and individual giving programmes and what drives success
- Experience of managing internal and external creative, direct marketing, telemarketing and digital agencies
- Extensive experience in legacy and/or mid-value fundraising, including prospecting, pipeline development and stewardship
- Proven experience in all the levers of fundraising performance and journey planning (data, media, content, creative)
- Experience using data analysis, insight to improve fundraising performance or pipeline management
- Proven experience of using consumer insight at the heart of strategy, proposition, and journey development
- Proven commercial acumen and a demonstrable track record of improving marketing effectiveness and efficiency
- Be a natural communicator, both verbal and written, with excellent interpersonal and relationship-building abilities.
What we offer you:
- A diverse, unique role where no two days are the same, with huge capacity to build and acquire new personal and professional skills and create your own scope to make change within one of the world's leading international charities.
- An organisation that believes in innovation and a diverse set of brilliant colleagues who are both experts in their fields and keen collaborators.
- Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. We also understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
- To have the best (and happiest) employees, we focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing – both in and outside of work.

Ways of Working:
The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter). This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building.
Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense.
Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.
Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion:
Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think.
We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone with experience of producing innovative and insight-led campaigns from conception to delivery and a passion for line managing a team and developing people.
The Individual Giving Manager will lead the implementation and development of our Individual Giving programme. You will be responsible for managing a team with ambitious targets and an exciting portfolio of campaigns to drive donor acquisition and retention, with a particular focus on digital campaigns.
You will work in a cross team manner, collaborating with colleagues to deliver activities that delight and inspire our supporters, encouraging long term partnership. You will form strong working relationships with internal stakeholders and external suppliers.
We promote flexible working at Terrence Higgins Trust. This position will be a hybrid role based between our offices in either London, Brighton or Glasgow and home working. We offer both National Allowance and London Allowance on top of base salary, depending on location.

THE CHARITY
Unfold is led by the people we serve and we get people where they want to be. We’re a bold, agile and growing organization, with a friendly, energetic and welcoming team. As an established local charity (previously known as Westminster Befriend a Family), we’re powered by volunteers who support young people and families to identify and achieve goals that matter to them. We provide mentoring and peer support groups to people in Westminster, Kensington and Chelsea and the neighbouring boroughs.
We’re open to everyone, but we target those who face the most challenges: 93% of the people we work with describe themselves as coming from a racialized group, 85% of the families we support are single-parent households headed by a woman, and 75% of the children we support are eligible for free school meals. We also run specialized programmes of support for people seeking asylum and those with refugee status. Last year we provided one-to-one mentoring to over 246 people, and group support to a further 252 people. With increasing demand for our services, we expect to provide direct support to over 350 individuals in the coming year.
We have an ambitious growth plan, and we’re seeking a proactive, innovative fundraiser to help us establish a range of sustainable income streams. We’ve made incredible progress in both programme scale and quality, and we want someone to help us identify and articulate the change we make, so that we can keep improving and demonstrate the value we deliver.

About Reprieve
Reprieve is a UK charity founded in 1999. Reprieve uses strategic interventions to end the use of the death penalty globally, and to end extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”.
Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society, as it is in their cases that human rights are most swiftly jettisoned and the rule of law is cast aside. Thus, Reprieve promotes and protects the rights of those facing the death penalty and those who are the victims of extreme human rights abuses carried out in the name of “counterterrorism” or “national security”, with a focus on arbitrary detention, torture, and extrajudicial executions.
Reprieve’s main office is in London, UK. Reprieve also supports full-time Fellows, who work as lawyers, investigators and campaigners in the countries in which we work. We work closely with a number of partner organisations in jurisdictions all over the world, who provide access to clients, expertise, knowledge and guidance on specific issues or regions. We work in cooperation with relevant government officials, individual lawyers and human rights defenders, as well as individual, corporate and foundation funders to further the cause of our shared goals.

• Collaborate with production teams and department leads in Legal, HR, and Assurance to establish processes aligned with the Production Directorate's workflows and requirements.
• Oversee paperwork processes, including contract management, safeguarding paperwork, legal documentation, and risk assessments, ensuring compliance with regulations and organisational standards.
• The role involves directly managing and strategic planning of production teams while also overseeing resource allocation for creative and production teams, which encompass creatives, designers, editors, and producers.
• Work closely with other department heads to implement traffic management systems, ensuring producers, creatives, and production teams are adequately resourced for optimal performance.
• Collaborate with stakeholders to develop training programs and materials aimed at enhancing Producers' skills in managing content creation across multi-channel campaigns.
• Demonstrate an excellent understanding of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) principles, integrating them into creative processes and outputs.
• Strategically build and nurture relationships with external collaborators and freelancers who share our commitment to DEIB and our mission for change.
