Fundraising Lead (Part-time, fixed-term contract)
Peers for the Planet (P4P) is the House of Lords cross-party climate and biodiversity action group bringing together over 160 members of the Lords to put climate change and biodiversity loss at the top of the political agenda. Since our launch in 2020 we’ve seen exciting momentum, building cross-party collaboration and winning world-leading legislative changes to embed climate and nature requirements in areas as diverse as financial markets, pensions, energy, health, skills, R&D, built environment and much more.
A combination of seed funding and subsequent grants has enabled the organisation to flourish.

- Develop/operationalise a fundraising strategy, leveraging the best return on investment of fundraising activity for the organisation and, where necessary, diversifying funding sources
- Along with the Director and Board, hold responsibility for meeting fundraising targets, including securing a mix of new grants/donors at the £10k-£250k+ level.
- Craft and coordinate compelling funding bids, drawing on the expertise of staff

- Undertake prospect research to identify new potential funders
- Deepen existing connections with the broader fundraising community, both within the climate/nature funders community but also in related/overlapping sectors
- Work with the Policy and Communications Lead to ensure that P4P’s organisational comms are compelling and meaningful for a broad spectrum of potential grant makers or donors
- Organise fundraising events
Insight & opportunity:
- Maintain latest insights on trends and issues, as well as on specific grant opportunities and other potential income streams, both in the climate funding sector and related/overlapping policy areas (health, finance, science, skills etc)
- Develop and maintain a thorough understanding of the opportunities for P4P to drive positive change for climate and nature in order to identify new funding opportunities
Operations & finance:
- In collaboration with our Finance and Operations Manager, develop and maintain a thorough understanding of organisational budgets, funding gaps, resourcing requirements, and income targets in the short, medium and long term
- Coordinate reporting and monitoring for all grants and lead on maintaining our funder database
- Set up and lead the preparation (e.g. briefings) for meetings with current and potential funders, and ensure timely follow up
