About the role

As Director of Fundraising, you will lead and inspire our fundraising team, driving multi-million-pound income across philanthropy, individual giving, legacies, corporate partnerships, community fundraising and events. This is a newly created role with a high degree of autonomy, focused on shaping the future of fundraising at Sheffield Children’s Hospital Charity, developing compelling campaigns, and identifying new opportunities to grow support.

Working closely with your colleagues and Sheffield Children’s NHS Foundation Trust, you will help bring fundable, high-impact projects to life, engaging current supporters and inspiring new audiences. You will embed a data-driven approach across the team, ensure exceptional donor stewardship and maintain the Charity’s reputation for integrity and impact.

Beyond fundraising, you will be a key member of the Charity’s Senior Leadership Team. Reporting to the CEO, you will influence strategy, represent the Charity externally, and model collaborative, values-led leadership.

This is an extraordinary opportunity to drive the growth and impact of a historic, ambitious charity at a time of exciting expansion, as we invest in transformational projects to improve the lives of children and young people in our care.
