You'll manage our relationship with an external fulfilment partner, making sure services are delivered efficiently, cost-effectively and in line with agreed standards. You'll join us at a pivotal time as we begin working with a new supplier. Working closely with colleagues across fundraising, supporter care, health information, digital and customer operations, you'll lead on supplier performance, service improvements and process optimisation. Using data and insight, you'll identify opportunities to enhance the supporter experience, protect income and help ensure our fulfilment service continues to meet the changing needs of the charity. Alongside leading our fulfilment service, you'll manage and develop our ecommerce function. From stock forecasting and product development to supplier management and shop performance, you'll ensure our online shop delivers a great customer experience, supports fundraising objectives and continues to grow its reach and impact.

What we want from you We're looking for someone who enjoys improving processes and building strong relationships. You'll thrive in this role if you're naturally organised, able to balance attention to detail with multiple moving parts and motivated by delivering an excellent supporter experience. You'll be solutions-focused and confident managing priorities, working with data to inform decisions and collaborating across teams to make things happen. You'll build strong relationships with both suppliers and internal teams and feel confident holding partners to account when needed.

To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We'll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally. We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities.

Director of Principal Giving & International Advancement Department University College London London, UK Grade 10 role with a salary of £100,000-£120,000 pa (inclusive of London Allowance). Plus excellent benefits, including a sector-leading relocation package. An exceptional leadership opportunity to play a significant role in the success of one of the biggest fundraising and engagement campaigns in the higher education sector in Europe. UCL is a radically different university. Founded in 1826 in the heart of London, we were the first university in England to welcome students of any religion and the first to welcome women on equal terms with men. Today, UCL has over 51,000 students, 14,000 staff and over 470,000 alumni, and is one of the world's top 10 universities. We will launch our largest ever fundraising and engagement campaign that will leverage the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that our bicentennial anniversary in 2026 presents. Since our last campaign, we have increased our ambitions and are building further capacity and expertise across our Advancement division. As part of this step-change, we have re-imagined our Principal Gifts & International team and are now seeking an experienced practitioner to drive this area forward. There has never been a more exciting time to join the Advancement office. As the Director of Principal Giving & International, you will lead a newly combined team that cultivates meaningful relationships with donors and prospective supporters who have the potential to transform the future and impact of UCL. You and your team of experts will secure philanthropic gifts at the 7 and 8-figure level and drive our international fundraising activity forward. You will work with key colleagues and stakeholders across Advancement and the wider University, as well as with a mission-critical senior volunteer network around the world. It'll therefore be critical that you are a highly experienced and ambitious fundraiser and leader, with vision, creativity and the ability to make things happen while taking others on the journey with you. To be successful, you must bring well-rounded knowledge and experience of best-in-class principal gifts fundraising, and a demonstrable track record of securing 7-figure philanthropic gifts, alongside an awareness of global fundraising trends. Your approachable and collaborative manner, along with your ability to work at pace and with gravitas, inspires confidence from those around you. Being enterprising and solutions-focussed, people enjoy working with you and actively seek you out as a thought partner. You must be equally comfortable in playing a front-facing role, as well as operating behind the scenes and supporting others in making the ask, as it's the transformational outcomes and impact that truly drives you. In return, you will join a team of passionate individuals who work together to achieve remarkable things with a global impact. Our people really are our greatest asset, and we invest in them so that they can fulfil their potential. Equity, diversity and inclusion is important to us and we are committed to creating an environment where everyone is encouraged to give their best in a place where their unique experiences, perspectives and skills are seen as valuable assets. We also prioritise work-life balance and offer hybrid and agile working as well as flexibility around working hours. We are happy to receive part-time applications for all of our job opportunities, and can consider a 0.8FTE working pattern for this role. And we particularly welcome applications from candidates who are likely to be underrepresented in UCL's workforce.
