Work with us
Head of Development
Location: Wakefield, West Yorkshire, with hybrid working available.
Contract: Permanent, full time (37 hours per week). We will consider shorter, compressed or school hours. (Please detail any flexible working requests in your application).
Salary: £50,000 – £55,000 pa (full time equivalent), depending on experience.
We are looking for an ambitious Head of Development to join our growing team and to lead the development and delivery of a sustainable income strategy across corporate partnerships, trusts and foundations, events, individual giving, community fundraising and legacies.
You will bring a strong track record of growing and diversifying income, underpinned by commercial insight and data-informed decision-making. As a senior leader, you’ll inspire and guide a small fundraising team (with the potential for growth, pending successful income generation), build meaningful donor relationships, and secure transformational partnerships. With a values-led mindset, you’ll thrive in a fast-paced, emotionally sensitive environment.
Collaboration will be at the heart of your approach, working closely with the CEO and Senior Leadership Team colleagues to shape and deliver the charity’s long-term vision. You’ll act as a key ambassador, cultivating relationships with a broad range of stakeholders, and helping to ensure the organisation is financially resilient and positioned for growth.
You’ll also be as comfortable rolling up your sleeves as you are setting strategic direction. With a small team and big ambition, we need someone who can think long-term while getting stuck into the day-to-day when needed.
