Foundation Scotland is an independent charity that provides funding to charities, social enterprises and community organisations. We do this on behalf of over 400 individuals, charitable trusts and companies.
The role
We are looking for a Philanthropy Manager to build trusted donor relationships, guide meaningful giving and lead a team connecting philanthropy with applicant needs. You’ll work with individuals, families and other donors to shape giving plans, oversee fund delivery and help donors see the difference their support makes. Alongside your own donor relationships, you’ll support and develop Fund Advisers and Grants Officers, bringing colleagues together to deliver thoughtful, accessible and equitable funding.
About you
We’re looking for someone with substantial experience of working with philanthropists, strong relationship building skills and experience of managing and developing people. You’ll bring sound judgement, a collaborative approach and a commitment to impact. Grant making experience is welcome, but your ability to advise and engage donors matters most, alongside a willingness to develop your funding expertise.
If you’re motivated by purposeful giving and helping others thrive, we’d love to hear from you. More detail about the role and experience required is available in the role profile/ person specification which can be found here.
Once you have read this, you can apply here. You will be able to attach a CV and detailed covering letter. Please outline clearly how you meet the criteria set out in the role profile/person specification. Please note, that while this role is home based, regular travel across the central belt and throughout Scotland is required.
The deadline for applications is midnight on 22nd November. Interviews are planned to be held in person on 3rd December.
