Today UCL has over 40,000 students,13,000 staff, and 400,000 alumni, and is one of the world’s top 10 universities.

In 2020, we closed one of the most successful fundraising campaigns in the UK’s higher education sector, which raised £624M and galvanised our community.  We have undertaken a strategic review of our programmes and have started to design a roadmap for what’s next. This has led to the creation of a number of new and exciting roles to build capacity across our Advancement division, with strategic intent. As part of this growth, we are looking to invest in our Strategic Philanthropy team to deliver a step-change in principal giving to the University.

As the Strategic Philanthropy Partner (Principal Gifts), you will work as part of a team of expert fundraisers who work on transformational gift opportunities, building deep and meaningful relationships with trusts, foundations, individuals and businesses with capacity to give at £5m+.

You will build strong working relationships with UCL’s senior leadership and cultivate your own set of prospect and donor relationships, devising solicitation strategies in collaboration with the Provost and with Deans.

The ideal candidate will bring experience of working with high-net-worth individuals in a philanthropic context, preferably in a university or transferable large complex organisation. You will additionally bring a demonstrable track record of working with a portfolio of prospects from whom you have solicited and closed gifts of 7- figures. Key to the success in this role will be your versatility and diplomacy as well as the adoption of an entrepreneurial approach to fundraising activity.

In return, you will join the team at an incredibly exciting time as we plan for UCL’s biggest ever fundraising and engagement campaign, launching in UCL’s bicentenary year, 2026.  We are a team of passionate individuals who work together to achieve remarkable things with a global impact. 

Our people really are our greatest asset and we invest in them so that they can fulfil their potential.  Equity, diversity and inclusion is important to us. We are committed to creating an environment where everyone is encouraged to give their best in a place where their unique experiences, perspectives and skills are seen as valuable assets. We also prioritise work-life balance and offer hybrid and agile working as well as flexibility around working hours.  We are happy to receive part-time applications for all of our job opportunities, and can consider a 0.8FTE working pattern for this role.

Key responsibilities:

• Develop and advise on policies and strategies to integrate Good Food principles into council operations, contributing to Sustainable Food Places silver award submission.

• Re-establish and lead Liverpool’s Good Food Policy working group.

• Document and showcase progress towards the goals of the Good Food Plan.

• Collaborate with national and local stakeholders, including public, private, and VCSE sectors, to develop and implement strategic food-related projects.

• Provide leadership on food policy within the council, aligning initiatives with broader city objectives such as sustainability, public health, and economic growth.

• Identify and pursue funding opportunities to ensure the sustainability of food systems initiatives.

• Represent Feeding Liverpool and Liverpool City Council at local and national events.

Key tasks:

• Work across council departments to align policies with Good Food principles and city-wide objectives, including the Carbon Neutral 2030 Plan.

• Prepare reports, briefings, and recommendations for senior leadership and elected members.

• Coordinate Liverpool’s Sustainable Food Places application.

• Develop guidance and advice for stakeholders to advance sustainable food practices, including influencing procurement and planning policies.

• Engage with schools, faith groups, and community organisations to promote food-growing initiatives.

• Present findings and evidence to partnerships in a range of settings from corporate meetings to community settings.

General responsibilities:

Do you have experience of delivering quantitative and qualitative research? Then join Shelter as a Research Officer and you could soon be playing a vital role at the heart of our Research team.

About the role

Working closely with a Senior Research Officer, we’ll rely on you to conduct research and analytical projects from initial concept through to completion. You’ll deliver effective research including designing questionnaires, selecting samples, interviewing respondents, interrogating data and writing up findings. Through your research, you’ll work with a multitude of colleagues in our policy, campaigns, media and public affairs teams to develop and carry out analytical projects in support of Shelter’s strategic priorities.

We’ll rely on you to provide advice and consultancy to Shelter colleagues on all aspects of research, and you’ll undertake analysis on a range of government and independent data sources on housing and homelessness. You’ll represent Shelter’s brand by presenting research findings at conferences, seminars and training events and ensure that our research is properly integrated into the work of our organisation. It’s a really exciting time to join our team and we’re happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth and a place where you can be yourself.

About you

To succeed, you’ll need experience of working in a social research field and have strong skills to manage and analyse data. You’ll also need a good understanding of quantitative and qualitative research methods, plus strong written and verbal communication skills. Knowledge of housing and homelessness issues, whether through work or personal experience, would be useful too, although this not as important as your enthusiasm and genuine interest in this important social issue.

Apply to be part of our team and be the change you want to see in society.

Benefits 

We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.

We are happy to talk about flexible working, personal growth, and to promote a workplace where you can be yourself and achieve success based only on your merit.

About the team

The Research Team works across Shelter to develop innovative research, analytics and insight to identify opportunities to influence, drive policy change and inform Shelter’s strategic direction.

The Research Team carries out a range of work to identify the nature and causes of housing and homelessness problems. This includes primary and secondary research, both conducted in-house and commissioned, into Shelter clients and the even greater number of people in housing need, many of which often don’t seek help. We also try to understand and anticipate future trends using analysis of government policy and economic data. All of this is combined to feed our policy influencing, public campaigning and service design and delivery.

Any applications submitted without a cover letter will not be considered.

About Shelter

Home is a human right. It’s our foundation and where we thrive. Yet everyday millions of people are being devastated by the housing emergency.

We exist to defend the right to a safe home. Because home is everything.

We need ambitious, passionate people to join us. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

Our enemy is the social injustice at the core of the escalating housing emergency. To win this fight, we must be representative of the people we are here to help and those who support our movement. In all our people decisions, we take pride in being inclusive, equitable and transparent. We are committed to combating racism both within and outside Shelter. We welcome you on our journey to becoming truly anti-racist.

Safeguarding statement 

Safeguarding is everyone's business. Shelter is committed to protecting the health, wellbeing and human rights of those we support, and enabling them to live free from harm, abuse and neglect.
