This exciting opportunity has arisen due to our former Development Director taking a career break after a period of maternity leave. We are therefore seeking a permanent successor to play a critical role as we seek to grow Cathedral Music Trust’s support for music-making in the UK’s cathedrals and beyond.
Reporting to and working closely with the CEO, you will also collaborate with the Trust’s Board and volunteers, leading a talented and committed Development team.
As Director of Development, you will play a vital leadership role in generating income for Cathedral Music Trust, including oversight of our regular giving and legacy programmes and targeting of major donors, Trusts and Foundations and sponsorships. You will help set strategic priorities to meet ambitious fundraising targets, overseeing the work of the Development team and harnessing the skills and networks provided by our dedicated group of volunteers.
The successful candidate will have a background and experience in fundraising, possessing strong interpersonal, communication, planning and organisational skills. They will demonstrate confidence in building and nurturing relationships. Given the role is home based, self-motivation, strong time management and initiative will be essential.
