Do you have a proven track record in strategically leading high/mid-value giving circles or membership programmes? Are you passionate about taking philanthropy fundraising to new heights?

If so, join Shelter as a Senior High Value Programme Manager where you'll have the opportunity to lead our recently established High Value Programme to grow predictable and sustainable income to fuel Shelter’s Fight for Home.

About the role

Shelter’s Philanthropy team has seen significant growth in recent years, and we have recently introduced a dedicated High Value Programme to capitalise on growth at the £3k-£20k level. We are looking for an experienced senior fundraiser to apply their knowledge and specialised skill set in this area to lead on further development of the programme and significantly expand the pipeline of sustainable income to support Shelter’s Fight for Home.

Along the way, you’ll be supported by an experienced, energetic fundraising team and colleagues in front line services, campaigns and finance and meet with service delivery and advocacy colleagues to learn more about Shelter’s work, so that you’re truly immersed and able to inspire donors to give.

About you

To succeed, you’ll have demonstrated experience leading high-/mid-value giving programmes and/or membership programmes, and also in complex project management and developing compelling propositions and appeals for philanthropists.

You will be a natural ‘go getter’ and ambitious, determined and happy to go the extra mile to provide first-class stewardship and win new support. You will be comfortable working independently and proactively in a fast-paced environment with high expectations of work quality and output, and adept at managing your workload and making informed decisions regarding your supporters and projects.

Apply to be part of our team and be the change you want to see in society.

Benefits 

We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About the team

The High Value Partnerships department is crucial to achieving Shelter’s charitable mission, raising over £30 million a year through relationship-based fundraising with high-net-worth individuals, legacy pledgers, trusts and major businesses. Support from individual philanthropists is vital to our work, the team works directly with high-net-worth individuals to raise new and uplifted major donor income to help power Shelter’s work.

We also provide tailored supporter journeys for all our major donor supporters, to connect them to the cause and recognise their impact and value, we have ambitious plans to significantly grow income to over £4 million a year. The team is looking for a proactive senior level philanthropy manager to apply their acquired skill and knowledge in this field and play a pivotal role in our success.
