Position Details Development and Alumni Relations Office Location: University of Birmingham, Edgbaston, Birmingham UK Full time starting salary is normally in the range £47,389 to £56,535 with potential progression once in post to £63,606 Grade: 8 Full Time, Permanent International Travel is required for this role Closing date: 5th January 2026 Background The University of Birmingham is a global institution working within a diverse and vibrant City, offering an inspiring education to our students, and undertaking critically important research. We are a place of open, critical thinking, and the creation, sharing and dissemination of knowledge. Professional Services put students at the heart of all they do and enable an exceptional educational experience. They provide outstanding support to our researchers and help the University to grow its influence regionally, nationally, and globally. They ensure the University's resources are used wisely, manage and improve the infrastructure which sits at the heart of the institution, and support decisions to be made quickly and based on sound evidence. Our Birmingham Professional programme operates across the University, supporting colleagues to network and collaborate, offering opportunities to learn and develop, contributing to the delivery of the University's objectives, and helping everyone to understand the broader context within which we work. Office Overview Our University has a proud history of philanthropy stretching back to its foundation in 1900. With a clear vision to change the lives of the people of Birmingham, Joseph Chamberlain raised the funds required to build the University from citizens and corporations based locally and around the globe. Since then philanthropy has continued to play an important role in shaping the University. There have been a number of fundraising campaigns, including a £1m urgent capital appeal after the Second World War and a £1.4m campaign to fund the Vale 'student village' in the 1960s. In 2015 we closed the Circles of Influence Campaign, raising £193 million, making it the largest HE fundraising campaign outside Oxbridge and London. The University has global reach, including several partnerships with other leading universities around the world, and is grounded in our local community, having opened the first fully comprehensive University secondary school in the country in 2015. We are an ambitious and successful research-intensive University (one of the top 100 research led universities globally) and have produced 10 Nobel Prize winners, including three who received their awards in 2016. Academics here are exploring the impact of climate change, helping to address global health epidemics, and changing our understanding of Shakespeare. Our students come from nearly 150 countries and our flagship outreach programmes mean that almost 25% of our student population come from underrepresented backgrounds: one of the highest proportions in the UK. DARO exists to support this academic and student community by engaging, inspiring, and celebrating alumni, individuals, and charitable funders who give their money, time, and networks to support the University's strategic priorities. The Office, which is comprised of five teams, is focused on fundraising and volunteering from alumni, organisations and individuals who are passionate about changing lives, through funding various research projects, supporting student bursaries, mentoring students, and providing internships, as well as providing a versatile programme of engagement opportunities for our global alumni community. Role summary As the Head of Philanthropy, Asia you will be responsible for growing our major gifts programme in the Asia Pacific region. The focus will be on increasing six figure + (GBP) giving through the University of Birmingham Hong Kong Foundation, and from the wider region. Most of our warm donors are based in Malaysia and Hong Kong but there is an active community of alumni in Singapore and scoping to be done across Asia to drive the next phase of our strategy forward beyond alumni donors and to build on a recent seven figure donation as a catalyst for further giving. As a University we established our Hong Kong Foundation in 2019 and giving is off to a strong start. Continuing on this trajectory you will work to make it financially sustainable, aiming to have multi year commitments lined up. You will steer and develop the Foundation's volunteer Board of Directors, increasing giving from their networks, and working with them to distribute funds to programmes at the University that will also benefit Hong Kong. As a senior fundraiser in DARO, you will be expected to be innovative, self motivated, and to take ownership of fundraising in this region.

Plan and personally lead on the development of a number of key University relationships with a portfolio of senior alumni and other current and prospective donors in the region, through regular, tailored communications, meetings and engagement. Demonstrate an understanding that successful fundraising is based on building effective relationships, which match a prospective donor's philanthropic interest with an area of strength and/or opportunity at the University. Be responsible for the end to end relationship management process of your contacts including: Identifying new prospective donors from your networks. Making the approach and managing a tailored cultivation process. Translating complex ideas, including academic research and University strategy, into compelling messages tailored to individual supporters.

Who we are looking for You will be a compassionate, collaborative and experienced leader with a track record of dynamic and positive growth in a charity or relevant child-centred organisation.

You will be a leader with significant experience in growing strong stakeholder relationships with partners, families, young people and a community of staff, volunteers, funders and supporters. As CEO, you will ensure compliance whilst also having the commercial skills to grow KidsOut's income to a stronger financial position. As a strategic and hands on individual, you will inspire others and grow impact and value as an ambassador and role model. With a track record as a thoughtful and impactful leader, you will bring equity, inclusion and an appreciation of the importance of children and their well being and safeguarding, which is at the heart of KidsOut.

For further information about the role or to arrange a confidential discussion, please contact our advising consultant at Peridot Partners: If you would like to know more about this role please contact Marie McQuade Thank you so much for your interest in joining KidsOut. As someone famously once said, 'Children are the future'. But for many children, the future is less bright and more than just a little uncertain. Children represent a group of very important people that a great many charities care deeply about and look to help. And one of the fundamental entitlements that EVERY child should feel safe and have life enhancing experiences that help them experience fun and happiness. It should be a natural part of growing up - it comes with the territory of being a child. And we all know that happier children make for happier, well rounded adults. But many children don't have the same experience as perhaps we did when we were growing up. For them, the world is very different. One of the things that makes the plight of children in refuge so heartrending is that it isn't their fault. They didn't choose to have an abusive parent or adult, which meant they had to flee their home, friends, school and leave any semblance of normality behind, ending up in a women's refuge at the other end of the country with nothing but the clothes on their back. Yet the impact of this hugely traumatic event can cast a long shadow not only over their childhood but often over their entire future too. KidsOut is a unique organisation, because we help children at a time when their world is quite literally torn apart. We focus on delivering experiences and toys for children that provide happiness, an experience that every person craves. For us, the measurements of success are smiles, happy memories and hope. We want the children we serve to know that someone cares. Helping them create memories that will last a lifetime can make all the difference. And that hope is crucial - children knowing that there is happiness out there, priceless. We appreciate that happiness is transitory, so we work with other charity partners who help to deliver longer term solutions too. Whether that relates to mental or long term health, or disability issues, our focus is not solely on the short term. We want the children we help to reach a place where they can be happy in the long term. It's a very interesting time to be joining KidsOut. We're about to sign off on a new strategy taking us to 2030, and our new Chief Executive Officer will help us set, embed and deliver our priorities. The economic context is challenging, and like most charities, our margins are tight. But you will be able to utilise your unique skills to help the board and executive team leverage their combined creativity and experience to make KidsOut resilient for the future. This is an amazing opportunity to help reshape a nationwide children's charity for the next decade and take the breadth and scope of what KidsOut is able to deliver to a whole new level. We look forward to discussing the CEO role further with you.
