Director of Development (Maternity Cover)

The Director of Development (Maternity Cover) is a senior position at the Marlowe Theatre, leading the organisation’s fundraising.

This 12-month maternity cover position provides an opportunity to lead a high performing department, develop skills and expertise and play your part in supporting the work of one of the country’s most successful regional theatres.

You will be working from a solid footing, leading the team to build on existing partnerships and developing a pipeline of new opportunities. We are looking for a strong relationship builder who can work across both revenue and capital fundraising ambitions. Our revenue programme is strong with increasing support from individuals and opportunity to grow our business support along with our Trusts and Foundations work. With initial support already in place from the National Lottery Heritage Fund for our capital programme, you will be working with a strong team and a growing capital campaign board.

We are a fast-growing organisation, and we are looking for a leader who will join our Strategic Management Team to help us drive the organisation forwards, finding new ways of working and embracing change.

We want to work with people who are passionate about their work, resilient in the face of any challenge that comes their way and supportive of their colleagues.
