Development Director and Head of Foundation

Embedding a culture of philanthropy in the School community amongst students, teachers, staff, parents and alumni is one of our key priorities. Philanthropy funds exceptional opportunities helping to drive sustainability initiatives, encourage student leadership and service activities, give access to inspirational visitors and significantly drive both participation and excellence in our sports and arts programmes.

We are now seeking a Development Director and Head of Foundation who will work closely with the Director of Business Development to translate the School’s strategic priorities into a comprehensive fundraising strategy and programme designed to grow philanthropic income, whilst providing strategic leadership and management of the Development team to drive fundraising performance, strengthen donor engagement and deliver the Foundation’s objectives.

As the Director you will provide strategic and operational leadership across fundraising, including major gifts, alumni, donor cultivation and solicitation, stewardship, fundraising campaigns and the management of the School’s Foundation. You will personally manage relationships with Tanglin’s most significant prospective and existing donors and will be a senior representative of the School in philanthropic and donor engagement.

The successful candidate will bring experience and success in leading fundraising, confidence with major donors and senior executives and the ability to be calm and diplomatic under pressure.

We are looking for someone who values team culture and will encourage this through their leadership.
