The unique and remarkable Outward Bound Trust is looking for an equally unique and remarkable Major Gifts Manager to enhance and build support from HNWI’s and VIP’s.
Applications close at: 9 a.m. Friday 4th April 2025
Location: Preferably London or Cumbria – Hybrid and flexibility.
About the Outward Bound Trust
Outward Bound gives young people a different experience of challenge and achievement – one they may never have felt before. It pushes them to the limits of what they think they’re capable of and shows them that there is more in them than they think.
Through their courses, they change young people’s lives by giving them opportunities in nature and the great outdoors that they would not typically have access to.
They impart an inspiring sense of belief and achievement and create life-long memories and friendships.
Outward Bound takes a bold, fun approach to fundraising. With two royal patronages, it is uniquely positioned from a fundraising perspective to create memorable events that constantly wow its donors, leading to brilliant and close relationships with its funders.
About the role
This role coordinates and delivers Outward Bound’s major giving programme, which raises £1.4 million per year. The programme consists of campaigns and appeals throughout the year, bespoke propositions and asks, and other innovative opportunities for uplift.
The Major Gifts Manager will lead on relationships, and work with senior colleagues – such as the Director of Fundraising, Marketing & Communications, and CEO – and others. You will be responsible for creating and coordinating stewardship.
The role sits within the Major Gifts & Events team, working alongside Events colleagues to plan events that will meet our Major Gift objectives.
Outward Bound takes a bold, fun approach to fundraising. We put on brilliant events that constantly wow our donors. We create opportunities for them to see, feel, and experience our work — and to give. We move fast to get a lot done.
The Major Gifts & Events team makes up part of the wider Fundraising and Marketing directorate, which consists of Marketing, Corporate, Trusts and Foundations and New Business teams.
Outward Bound recently launched a new strategy, The Next Horizon, laying out plans for growth over the next 6 years. The fundraising team will be tasked with providing the income to allow for this growth, which is estimated at £45m over the next 5 years. This role will be key to contributing to this growth.
Who we are looking for
We are searching for brilliant major gift relationship builders who have the confidence, tenacity and charisma to enhance their existing supporter base — as well as acquiring new high level multi-year philanthropic support.
An ideal candidate will have the ability or experience of stewarding HNWI and senior stakeholders and not be phased by walking into the likes of Buckingham Palace and building relationships with a collection of existing and potential supporters.
Outward bound do things differently, so we are looking for creative candidates who have great determination and belief in themselves, their team and the cause. A passion for people is a must.
This is currently one of the most exciting roles on the market for so many reasons. If successful, you will be joining an energetic and collaborative charity that strives for the gold standard in all they do – as well as having a career-defining and rewarding role whilst having some fun!

About the Outward Bound Trust
Outward Bound gives young people a different experience of challenge and achievement – one they may never have felt before. It pushes them to the limits of what they think they’re capable of and shows them that there is more in them than they think.
Through their courses, they change young people’s lives by giving them opportunities in nature and the great outdoors that they would not typically have access to.
They impart an inspiring sense of belief and achievement and create life-long memories and friendships.
Outward Bound takes a bold, fun approach to fundraising. With two royal patronages, it is uniquely positioned from a fundraising perspective to create memorable events that constantly wow its donors, leading to brilliant and close relationships with its funders.
About the role
This role is responsible for leading the Major Gifts and Events team to success. With an overall target of £2.1m to raise per year, consisting of Outward Bound’s major giving programme raising £1.4 million per year and our Events programme raising £700,000.
The Head of Major Gifts & Events will form part of the Fundraising Steering Group, making key decisions and reporting to the Director of Fundraising, Marketing & Communications.
You will be great at forming relationships, managing stakeholders and leading a small, impactful, inspiring team.
The Major Gifts & Events team makes up part of the wider Fundraising and Marketing directorate, which consists of Marketing, Corporate, Trusts and Foundations and New Business teams.
Outward Bound recently launched a new strategy, The Next Horizon, laying out plans for growth over the next 6 years.
The fundraising team will be tasked with providing the income to allow for this growth, which is estimated at £45m over the next 5 years. This role will be key to contributing to this growth.
Who we are looking for
We are searching for brilliant major gift relationship-builders and leaders who have the confidence, tenacity and charisma to enhance their existing supporter base — as well as acquiring new, high level multi-year philanthropic support.
An ideal candidate will have the ability or experience of stewarding VIP’s, HNWI and senior stakeholders and not be phased by walking into the likes of Buckingham Palace and delivering a memorable speech to a collection of existing and potential supporters.
Outward Bound do things differently, so we are looking for creative candidates who have great determination and belief in themselves, their team and the cause. A passion for people is a must.
This is currently one of the most exciting roles on the market for so many reasons. If successful, you will be joining an energetic and collaborative charity that strives for the gold standard in all they do – as well as having a career-defining and rewarding role whilst having some fun!
