Purpose of Job

We are looking for an experienced Development Manager to craft and deliver a fundraising strategy that reflects Watershed’s ingenuity and innovation, and the changed funding landscape.

They will lead the development and implementation of our fundraising programmes, and have particular expertise in building unrestricted funding to support our core initiatives including talent development and inclusion.

Before you apply

We believe our work will be stronger with greater diversity and welcome applications from those who bring difference. Watershed welcomes the whole person to work, and we understand that each of us bring our experiences, our backgrounds and our own unique lens to what we do. Supporting our staff means they are not appointed to represent specific groups or organisation.

You may not have worked in a cultural organisation before, or in an organisation like Watershed. Perhaps you have worked in fundraising but in other non-cultural organisations which would be a very transferable context. If you are from a background that is underrepresented in the culture sector (for example you are from a community of colour, did not go to University or had free school meals as a child), and you would like support to articulate how your experience is transferable to this role, please contact Anne Wong-Erven anne.we@watershed.co.uk or Kirsty Young kirsty.y@watershed.co.uk and we would be pleased to help you think this through.
