Salary: Up to £70,000 per annum
Are you ready to lead impactful change? Join our client as their new Associate Director of Philanthropy.
They’re seeking an experienced leader to drive continued growth in their philanthropy program, helping expand their support across the UK and Europe as they work towards ending factory farming by 2040.
About The Organisation:
Our clienr is a leading global organisation dedicated to ending factory farming worldwide. They were founded in 1967 by a British farmer alarmed by the rise of factory farming. Over the past 50 years, they have made major strides in abolishing inhumane practices such as barren battery cages, veal crates, and sow gestation crates in the UK and Europe.
Their approach involves campaigning, advocacy, and engagement with policymakers at national, intergovernmental, and corporate levels, building a movement of individuals concerned about animal welfare and the health and sustainability of our food. They are driven by a passion for animal welfare and food system change, believing in a future where animals are treated with compassion and respect, and where sustainable farming practices prevail for a healthy planet.
Their international headquarters are in Godalming (UK), with team members in 14 countries on four continents including the US, Italy, France, Poland, the Netherlands, Spain, Czechia, China, and a specialist policy office in Brussels. This role is part of the Global Fundraising Directorate of over 50 staff, consisting of Philanthropy, Individual Giving, Legacies, Digital, CRM and Brand teams, based internationally, primarily in the UK (HQ) and our six other fundraising markets in the USA and Europe.
About the Role:
They are looking for an impressive and talented Associate Director Philanthropy (UK & Europe) to lead their successful and growing UK & European focused Philanthropy programme and team. Reporting into the Global Director of Fundraising, you will lead a dynamic and ambitious team responsible for significant growth from UK and European philanthropic partners and seek new opportunities in other geographies (outside North America), working closely with the US Director of Philanthropy. This is an exciting time to join the Global Philanthropy team and contribute to delivering their mission to end factory farming by 2040. With growing awareness of the devastating impact of factory farming not only on animals, but on human health and the environment, now is a unique moment to be raising funds for their work and bringing new donors on board.
Their Global Philanthropy team has been successful in securing income growth over recent years, and they have invested in their team to build on this momentum, expanding into continental Europe and growing their UK team, as well as their US team. This role will lead further growth, ensuring their existing relationships with Major Donors, Trusts and Foundations, corporate donors and partners flourish and grow, while having a focus on identifying and building new relationships and funding opportunities, broadening our international scope and ambitions beyond their UK and US bases.
About You:
To succeed in this exciting role, you will need to have significant experience in fundraising or philanthropy, ideally in a similar position. You'll need to have proven success and be motivated by working in a fast-paced and complex international environment, with the flexibility to travel within the UK and internationally, as needed, and sometimes at short notice.
