By doing this we can better support our work to conserve nature, beauty and history. Ultimately, the more funds we can sustainably generate, the more positive impact we can have for people and for nature.
This is a particularly exciting time to join this part of the Fundraising family as the National Trust is preparing its organisational strategy for the next 10 years.

What you'll be doing
You'll be working in a small team developing new Curation & Experiences propositions and proposals for our high-value audiences, made up of Corporations, Major Donors, Grant Makers and Trusts & Foundations. You'll be supporting the Head of Proposition Development and working with core fundraising teams to enable fundraisers to develop propositions themselves. You will ensure your propositions algin with broader National Trust strategy, working with senior leaders to understand funding opportunities relevant to donor motivations.
You'll work with the existing audience insight team to understand opportunities for compelling propositions that are accurate, impactful and inspiring. You'll engage with project, programme and finance teams to embed propositions development in ways of working.
