Visual Arts South West

We're looking for an ambitious, creative, and energetic fundraiser to help take the Royal West of England Academy (RWA) into its next chapter. The Royal West of England Academy (RWA) is proudly independent, receiving no regular public funding. We thrive thanks to the generosity of individuals, trusts and foundations, creative partners, and commercial income. Following a major £5 million capital renovation, we've launched a bold new five-year plan focused on strengthening our infrastructure and deepening our public impact through both contemporary and historical exhibitions. We're now ready to reshape our fundraising strategy to support this next chapter, growing income from trusts and foundations, individual giving, corporate partnerships, and fundraising campaigns. Our goal is to build a resilient, values-driven model of development that reflects the RWA's ambition and supports our engaging, life-changing work. Whether you're an experienced development lead or a brilliant consultant seeking a meaningful partnership, this is an opportunity to make your mark at one of the UK's most beautiful and historic art galleries. We've got big ambitions, and we hope you share them. How to apply: If you'd like an informal conversation about the role, please contact Ren Renwick, Director RWA, at .
