About us

We are UCL: a diverse community with the freedom to challenge and think differently. From cancer research to climate change, dementia to social inequality, the world is facing huge challenges and we’re determined to solve them.

There has never been a more exciting time to join the Advancement office as we plan for our biggest ever fundraising and engagement campaign and support the delivery of the bicentennial programme in 2026. We are a team of exceptionally ambitious, creative and passionate individuals who work together to achieve remarkable things with a global impact, and we would love for you to be part of this exciting journey and our success.

Equity, diversity and inclusion is important to us. 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.

About the role

As Senior Philanthropy Manager (Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences) you will be driving strategic philanthropic partnerships to secure income at the six and seven-figure level from high-net-worth individuals in support of the fundraising priorities for four UCL faculties: Arts and Humanities, Social and Historical Sciences, Laws and Education and Society, as well as for UCL’s libraries, special collections and cultural programmes.

We are happy to consider applications to work on a part-time, flexible and job share basis wherever possible (minimum 0.8 FTE – equivalent of 4 days per week, stated salary to be pro-rata).

This role is eligible for hybrid working with a minimum of 20% on site. Please note our in-office anchor day for all Advancement members is a Tuesday, therefore this would be a required day in the office.
