About the role Research has shown that there is significant potential for new and existing wealth holders to use their resources to fund climate action, and demand for trusted advisors to accelerate both the pace and efficacy of philanthropy. The Impatience Earth team has a track record of delivering quality philanthropy advisory for climate action, and with a growing team we have the capacity to take on new clients. As the Philanthropy Catalyst Lead, you will be instrumental in building a strong pipeline of clients who would benefit from our climate advisory services. You are someone who is comfortable connecting with and engaging wealth holders, such as high-net worth individuals, family foundations and corporate foundations that have the potential to commit substantial resources (£200k+ year) to climate action. These clients may be based in the UK or Europe (as reflects the majority of our client base so far) although you will also work with colleagues engaged in catalysing philanthropy in other regions of the world. You will report directly to the Co-CEO, but also work closely with other members of the team and partners such as the Environmental Funders Network (EFN) to grow climate philanthropy. This is not a fundraising role for Impatience Earth: the primary focus will be to further develop and hone our business development strategy; to find, qualify and cultivate prospects; and to support the delivery of advisory services as needed once prospects are converted into clients. About Impatience Earth Impatience Earth is a non-profit climate philanthropy consultancy founded in 2020 with a mission to educate, challenge and inspire wealth holders to take bolder funding decisions to address the climate emergency. Since 2020, our engagement with over 40 philanthropic foundations and businesses has supported them to make over £250m of new funding available for climate action, and we have already helped them make grants to over 200 different organisations. A great deal of these clients have come from word of mouth and from within our team s existing connections, and we are now looking to expand our reach beyond our own network. We have ambitious plans to unlock greater funding for intersectional climate justice work, with bespoke advisory for new climate funders continuing to be a core pillar of our strategic plan. Key responsibilities include but are not limited to the following: Further developing our business development strategy. This would include: Reviewing and assessing previous and existing business development activities, and prioritising actions Identifying key target audiences and referral partners Proposing realistic and stretch targets for our business development activities Developing concise and effective communications for our target audience, for example, by crafting compelling outreach emails Researching, qualifying and engaging with prospective clients. This would include: Using your past experience of engaging wealth holders to suggest new business development or prospect research ideas Reviewing funder databases for leads and relevant information Initiating a new (simple!) system of tracking client leads from identification to conversion Arranging and joining scoping conversations with potential clients Identifying events and spaces to engage with prospective clients Initiating and managing key relationships. This would include: Stewarding prospective clients who are not yet ready to engage with our services Re-engaging and managing strong relationships with key referral partners and intermediaries, such as EFN, private banks, wealth advisors, family offices and other philanthropy advisors Representing Impatience Earth externally at meetings and events to meet our business development objectives Working closely with colleagues to integrate business development across programmes.
