Harris Hill is partnering exclusively with the Peninsula Medical Foundation to appoint a new Fundraising Manager. The charity provides support for the work of the The University of Plymouth Faculty of Health and its Medical School(s).  The Faculty accommodates one of the top new medical schools and is closely linked to one of the largest teaching hospitals in Europe.  The research of its scientists and clinicians into the causes and treatment of cancer is recognised as World class and the medical training it provides as second to none in the UK.   

This is a full-time position, fixed-term for a period of two years in the first instance. It will be home based, with regular travel to Plymouth and the surrounding areas. There will be the occasional need for other UK travel.

 The charity requires a Fundraising Manager to help generate vital income, which will be channelled into research and new therapies.  The role will include stewarding existing donor relationships and managing the newly developed fundraising strategy of the Foundation.  

 Essential criteria:

• Substantial Fundraising experience across multiple fundraising streams
• Strong stakeholder management experience
• Excellent communicator, happy to be the face of the organisation
• Experience of working collaboratively across a number of departments
• Strong negotiating and influencing skills

This is an opportunity for the right person to be part of a great philanthropic enterprise set in a beautiful part of Devon and Cornwall. You will work closely with local and national leaders, medical scientists, clinicians and philanthropists to develop a small but well-established charity into a major financial supporter for local medical research and training.
