Development & Alumni Relations:

There is a strong sense of collegiality that drives the RCA's success and team members at all levels work together to a shared goal and purpose. Pulling together as a team, a willingness to assist a colleague on an assignment, to have an open mind to new ways of working and indeed the desire to jump in and deliver a new project, are the attitudes and mindset we prize at the RCA and which have contributed to our sustained high performance.

The Development Officer (Events) is expected to be self-motivated and capable of working on his/her own initiative, with excellent organisational, communication, and negotiating skills, while also being a role model for other departments demonstrating excellent event management and overall exemplary customer service, working closely with internal and external contacts at the highest levels as well as building relationships with others at any level necessary for the smooth running of  successful events.

Excellent communication skills are a pre-requisite of this role, along with exceptional interpersonal skills with the ability to lead, persuade, negotiate, and influence people of all levels.
