We are delighted to be partnering with Bradford Cathedral to help them find their new Head of Fundraising. Bradford Cathedral is a place with a rich history, standing on a site where Christian worship has taken place for over 1,400 years. Located in the heart of Bradford city centre, it continues to be a welcoming space for prayer and worship, while also playing a significant role in uniting the city’s diverse community.
This is a particularly exciting time for Bradford Cathedral as they get ready for Bradford’s year as the UK City of Culture in 2025. They’re looking to grow their ministry and serve the community in new and meaningful ways—celebrating the histories of those who call Bradford home and helping to shape the city’s future.
Bradford Cathedral is searching for a new Head of Fundraising who will be a key part of bringing their vision and strategy to life. This person will help make the most of the opportunities that 2025 brings and contribute to the Cathedral’s future, all while supporting the city and its community. The focus will be on developing a creative and ambitious fundraising strategy that includes fundraising, income generation, and marketing—building on the great work that’s been done in recent years.
The successful candidate must be able to demonstrate:
- Experience in creating and implementing fundraising strategies
- Outstanding written and verbal communication and networking skills
- Ability to work at a strategic and operational level across a range of fundraising disciplines
- Experience of managing and motivating a team
- Knowledge of fundraising regulations and best practice, fundraising databases, and GDPR
If you're looking for a rewarding role and have a proven track record of fundraising success, then we would be keen to hear from you. This is a wonderful opportunity to join a friendly, passionate team and and make a meaningful impact on the future of Bradford Cathedral and its place in the city.
