We are seeking an exceptional fundraiser to motivate and lead our Development Department to achieve a fundraising step-change in support of this conservatoire’s ambitious Strategic Plan. Trinity Laban is striving to achieve excellence beyond tradition, creating a home for performing artists in which boundaries are pushed, collaborations are key, and artistic pioneers are made. We are a world-leading home for students from non-traditional backgrounds with a programme of activity that reaches out to all sections of society, centring the performing arts as a force for cultural and social progress. 

Our Development Department is on a growth path, and this will be an exciting and career enhancing role for the right individual. With opportunities to build support for Trinity Laban and its students in a period of transformation and working with some of the most innovative and future-focussed artists of our time, there isn’t a better time to join the team.

We’re looking for someone with a strong track record of establishing and nurturing relationships with potential supporters with the capacity to make transformational gifts. You will be able to evidence successful complex institutional philanthropic bids and have experience of devising fundraising strategies supported by a compelling case for support. You will have opportunities to engage with partners and contacts globally and be based at our internationally renowned campus including the World Heritage Site in Greenwich and Stirling Prize Award-winning Laban Building.

You will be capable of leading and enabling the development team and a wider network of supporters and advocates focused on major gifts from individuals, artists, and influencers, as well as charitable trusts. You will bring an entrepreneurial and driving spirit and sophisticated communication and relationship skills, practised in operating at a strategic level.
