About Reprieve
Reprieve works with the most disenfranchised people in society. Our aim is simple: to consign the death penalty and abuses carried out in the name of “counter-terrorism” or “national security” to history, drawing public and political attention to these past harms with a view to preventing them from occurring again.
In our view, you can best judge a society by how it treats prisoners, criminal defendants, and the far-flung targets of an ever-changing counter-terror policy. To us, the rule of law means little if we selectively apply it to people we agree with. It is for all of us. Liberty is always eroded at the margins.
Reprieve’s staff is made up of courageous and committed human rights defenders. Founded in 1999, we provide free legal and investigative support to people facing the death penalty and those victimised by states’ abusive counter-terror policies – rendition, torture, arbitrary detention and extrajudicial killing.
We fight our clients’ cases in courts around the world; investigate their mistreatment; and advocate on their behalf, encouraging public and political debate of human rights issues.
Reprieve’s main office is in Aldgate, 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.
About this role
This is an exciting opportunity to join the Reprieve team as our Head of Development- Grants and Major Givers, covering parental leave. With the support of the Deputy Director, Fundraising (DDF), you will lead the Development Team to fundraise for Reprieve, and our sibling organisation, Reprieve US, through multiple income streams. You will be responsible for managing a number of key donor relationships, while leading a dynamic and collaborative team to deliver against income targets across trusts, statutory, high value donors (HVD), events, awards and corporate sources. With at least five years fundraising experience, you will bring specialist expertise in at least one of the following areas: trusts and foundations, statutory or high value donors.
This is a pivotal moment for fundraising at Reprieve. The fundraising landscape in the UK has been affected by the economic crisis, and Reprieve is responding to this new context by remaining agile and proactively seeking new opportunities and funding sources. Our aim for the next 1 – 3 years is to maintain our current income and ensure Reprieve can resource our critical work at the same level. Joining at this key moment, you will be energised to bring your skills, experience, and knowledge to lead and support your team to steward and secure income from current funders, while strategising how to build income from new sources.
Reporting to the DDF, you will manage three Development Officers, ensuring they have the guidance, support, and infrastructure they need to fundraise effectively. You will work with the Head of Finance, the DDF and the Joint Executive Director (JED) to monitor and feed into organisational, programme and project budgets and income projections. You will also collaborate with the wider fundraising team, including the Head of Mass Engagement, who leads our public fundraising (digital, emails, challenge events, regular giving); the finance team; the casework team, and Reprieve’s network of partners and fellows.
For further details on the duties of the role please see the job description.
Contract, Location and Salary
This is a one year, fixed term contract from May 2025 covering parental leave. The salary is £61,003 per annum, less any required deductions for income tax and national insurance.
This role is based in Reprieve’s London office. Reprieve operates a hybrid working model and we require staff to work 40% per week from the London office and the rest of the week from home. Applicants must have the right to work in the UK currently and for the duration of the contract, which will be checked prior to interview.
Reprieve works across a number of jurisdictions; as such, this is a role that may require work outside of core office hours from time to time. This role also requires availability for face-to-face meetings with donors and other staff members in London on a regular basis.
The deadeline for applications is 02 February 2025.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.

Southmead Hospital Charity is looking for an experienced Individual Giving and Corporate Partnerships Manager to build on already successful programmes, with enough scope and flexibility to take them to the next level.
This is an exciting time to work for an official NHS charity. We've got ambitious plans to grow our income and impact over the next 12 months, including launching a new fundraising appeal to support victims of stroke and neurological injuries. You'll work collaboratively across the team to identify opportunities to reach new audiences, maximise awareness and leverage our existing supporter base to help us reach our goal.
With the help of one direct report, you will be responsible for the planning and delivery of our individual giving and corporate partnerships programme to meet annual income targets. This includes strategic oversight of our individual giving, regular giving and grateful patient programmes.
You’ll get the chance to work as part of our small and dynamic team, with a variety of flexible working arrangements. We're looking for someone with excellent written and verbal communication skills, a passion for our cause and demonstrable experience of developing effective strategies to increase awareness and raise income from individuals and companies.
If you are a dedicated and enthusiastic individual with a passion for supporter engagement and fundraising, we would love to hear from you!
