About the role:

Following the launch of Imperial’s bold and ambitious strategy, Science for Humanity, in March 2024, Imperial is now preparing to launch a comprehensive fundraising and engagement campaign to support the delivery of its strategy. This will be a 10-year effort and one of the biggest campaigns in the UK. Imperial is seeking a talented and driven Campaign Manager to play a pivotal role in shaping this 10-year campaign, working closely with colleagues across the university and within the Advancement team in pursuit of the campaign.

What you would be doing:

Reporting to the Deputy Director of Campaign and Supporter Engagement, the Campaign Manager is a new position which will play a key role in the development and implementation of the campaign. You will lead the project management of the campaign and will ensure Advancement works effectively with leadership volunteers and will lead on our internal stakeholder engagement across Imperial. You will help to raise the visibility of Advancement internally and build upon existing collaborations in achieving our fundraising goals and objectives. You will also help communicate campaign progress and success through a series of reports and engagement with our internal community.

What we are looking for:

You will have experience of working within a major fundraising campaign and managing large-scale initiatives in the non-profit sector. You will be adept at navigating a complex organisation and will have experience building and managing relationships with internal and external senior stakeholders, ideally senior volunteers. You will have exceptional problem-solving abilities and the capability to navigate ambiguity and will enjoy shaping new areas of work, exercising your own initiative, and working as part of a fast-paced team.

What we can offer you:

You will join Imperial at an incredibly exciting time and this role presents a unique opportunity to play a pivotal role in one of the biggest fundraising campaigns in the UK and to make a lasting impact on Imperial’s future. As a new role, you will have the opportunity to shape new streams of work and collaborate across the university and its communities.

You will also:

• Have the opportunity to continue your career at a world-leading institution and be part of our mission to continue science for humanity
• Benefit from sector-leading salary and remuneration package (including 39 days off a year and generous pension schemes)
• Get access to a range of workplace benefits including a flexible working policy from day 1, generous family leave packages, on-site leisure facilities and a cycle-to-work scheme
