Prospect Development Manager

Full Time

The appointment will be on UCL Grade 7. The salary range will be £34,635 to £41,864 per annum, inclusive of London Allowance.

UCL is London’s Global University. We do things differently here and we take the long view. We are not afraid to take risks. We remain focused on making a major contribution to the long term benefit of humanity. In September 2016 UCL launched ‘It’s All Academic’, our bold global Philanthropy and Engagement Campaign to raise £600m to support students, research and the transformation of our campus. It will enable us to achieve more than ever before to secure our position as one of the world’s top higher education institutions. By the end of April 2018, we were delighted to have raised more than £391m towards our target.

From fighting dementia to ensuring generations of students reach their full potential: It's All Academic. UCL’s ideas and discoveries are shaping the future, improving lives and having a massive impact on London and the wider world. There has never been a more exciting time to join our Development office. We are a team of exceptionally ambitious, creative and passionate individuals who work together to achieve remarkable things with a global impact, and we would love for you to be part our success on this exciting journey.

This is a fantastic opportunity to play a pivotal role in delivering our Campaign. As Prospect Development Manager you will be helping to spearhead our prospect identification and prospect management activity across all of our fundraising and engagement streams. Working with the Head of Prospect Development you will implement an innovative long-term strategy to strengthen and expand UCL’s philanthropy portfolio through creative identification of exciting and relevant prospects in the UK and globally. You will also play a key role in developing our insight strategy focusing on how we can be innovative with the information we possess, in order to drive our philanthropy and alumni engagement.

You will have significant experience and demonstrable enthusiasm for prospect identification, management and research. An outstanding communicator, you will have a track record of proactively building strong stakeholder relationships in order to progress the aims of a development team.

We know that our people are our greatest asset and in return we provide an empowering, values-based environment where personal and professional growth is invested in. We offer agile working and flexibility around working hours. We also value mutual respect and collaboration, and have a strong customer-service ethic.  Expectations are high and we work hard, but the rewards are huge.

UCL is an outstanding place to work. We welcome people from all backgrounds and strive to create an environment where everyone can give of their best. Working with some of the greatest intellects in the world, you will also be entitled to a generous pension scheme and holiday allowance.
