Senior Associate Director, Brain & Mind Health
University of Cambridge Development and Alumni Relations
£55,751 - £64,604 per annum

We now seek a Senior Associate Director, Brain & Mind Health, to help us realise this ambition and ensure that we can contribute to the prevention, prediction and treatment of disease - from mental disorders to neurogenetic conditions to diseases of ageing such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.

The Senior Associate Director, Brain & Mind Health, will build and implement a new and ambitious fundraising programme, securing 6 and 7 figure gifts in support of students, posts, research and infrastructure. Developing a global constituency of supporters will be key to addressing current institutional needs and opportunities – and foundational in enabling us to realise longer-term ambitions, notably for a significant new capital development.

You will be a talented major gifts fundraiser or equivalent who wants to secure gifts at the transformational level. Collaborative, strategic and innovative in approach, key to your success will be the ability to engage with high-net-worth individuals, senior level staff across Collegiate Cambridge, academics and key stakeholders, both internally and externally.

This position is an exciting opportunity to join a team that works at the cutting edge of what we do at an institution where philanthropy has real impact. We have extraordinary aspirations and know we can make these a reality – come and be a part of our team.

This role is based in central Cambridge; however, the successful candidate may need to work remotely in the first instance. An element of remote working long-term will be considered. This can be discussed at interview.

The closing date for this position is Monday 28th June 2021. 
The interview process for this position is anticipated to take place during the first few weeks of July 2021.
