Head of Development (Principal Giving & Campaign)
Because the world needs creativity
University of the Arts London (UAL) is looking to appoint an exceptional individual to be their new Head of Development (Principal Giving & Campaign). Ranked number two in the world for Art & Design by the QS World Rankings, UAL is the biggest provider of creative education in Europe and is proud to be an influential global leader, where creativity and innovation flourish. The University is made up of six colleges (Camberwell College of Arts, Central Saint Martins, Chelsea College of Arts, London College of Communication, London College of Fashion, Wimbledon College of Arts), and four institutes each making a unique contribution to creative endeavour. UAL strives to break boundaries and challenge norms, delivering cutting-edge research and ground-breaking creative education to the next generation of world-defining thinkers and doers.
This newly created role will sit on the Development and Alumni Relations Management Team, driving the team’s fundraising capacity for principal giving. The incoming Head of Development (Principal Giving & Campaign) will have the opportunity to build a team of three (two Development Managers and a Development Officer) around them in order to enhance fundraising success for the University. While primarily focusing on fundraising endeavours, building relationships with individuals with high giving capacity and bringing in principal gifts, the role holder will also take the reins in driving the strategic development and delivery for UAL’s next major fundraising campaign. The post-holder will have the opportunity to make a transformative difference to development at UAL, raising ambition across the team, in advance of the University’s upcoming fundraising campaign.
UAL is looking for an excellent fundraiser with a strong track record of bringing in six and seven figure gifts in their own institution. Ideal candidates should bring a hunger and energy when it comes to boosting fundraising success for the University. They will be familiar with working to develop prospect strategies, bringing strategic thinking to enhancing transformational gift opportunities for the University. They will be familiar with driving success and delivery for major fundraising campaigns. Candidates should ideally be familiar with Higher Education or creative environments, as well as be aligned with the social purpose of UAL. This is an outstanding opportunity to play a pivotal role in attracting the funding that will enable UAL to generate and inspire the creativity the world needs for a better future.
To apply, please send a covering letter and CV to ual@minervasearch.com by Friday 6th February.
