You’ll bring experience of leading successful individual giving and/or legacy programmes, ideally across a range of channels, along with strong team leadership skills and an inclusive, supportive approach. Strategic and results-driven, you can translate big-picture goals into clear, actionable plans, while keeping the supporter experience at the heart of everything you do.

As well as a competitive salary, you’ll enjoy a range of benefits including 30 days annual leave (plus bank holidays), membership of a health cash plan, employee assistance programme, cycle-to-work scheme, interest-free annual season Travelcard loan and pension scheme. This is a fantastic opportunity to join an organisation committed to being the driving force behind the transformation of lung health.
