Development Manager

Britten Sinfonia is “one of the UK’s most innovative ensembles” (The Guardian). The Development Manager will play a central role in delivering Britten Sinfonia’s fundraising strategy and growing Contributed income. The postholder will lead key fundraising streams including the Trusts & Foundations, the Membership Supporters programme, fundraising campaigns and events, while ensuring the effective management of the organisation’s CRM system, Beacon CRM. From time to time, the postholder will also support the Development Director across other fundraising channels.

Working closely with the Development Director, senior leadership and artistic team, the Development Manager will develop compelling cases for support, nurture existing donors, and identify new funding opportunities to support the orchestra’s artistic, Learning & Participation and community programmes.

The role combines strategic planning, relationship management and operational delivery, and will contribute significantly to achieving the organisation’s fundraising targets.
