Partnership and Philanthropy Manager
42 London – Central London (hybrid)
At 42 London, we believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. As part of the global 42 Network, we are a free, peer-to-peer coding school open 24/7, preparing diverse learners for real-world tech careers. We are looking for a transformative fundraiser who views capital not as an end in itself, but as a means to unlock life-changing opportunities.
The role
You will convert our ambitious mission into sustained, major support—building a high-value portfolio across principal gifts, corporate partnerships, and strategic grants. You’ll open doors at the highest levels, craft compelling cases for support, and secure multi-year commitments that scale our impact, reporting to the Director of Operations.
You will:
• Lead a focused strategy for principal gifts, family offices, and major donors; build a
pipeline of prospects and cultivate long-term relationships.
• Secure corporate partnerships and sponsorships (including naming and multi-year
programmes) with FTSE-level and global brands.
• Orchestrate high-impact cultivation events in London and leverage the wider 42 Network
to engage new supporters.
• Produce best-in-class proposals, stewardship, and impact reporting.
• Ensure full compliance with UK fundraising regulation, charity law, Gift Aid, and GDPR.
• Deliver against stretching income and multi-year commitment goals with clear,
consistent reporting to leadership.
What you’ll bring:
We are seeking an individual who combines proven fundraising expertise with a deep personal passion for educational opportunities.
• A strong record of closing significant gifts/partnerships and growing them into sustained, multi-year support.
• Exceptional relationship-building skills with senior stakeholders (C-suite, trustees, HNW/UHNW circles, family offices, and foundations).
• Outstanding written and verbal communication; credible and compelling with sophisticated audiences.
• Commercial acumen: confident with pipelines, forecasting, and board-level reporting.
• A collaborative, mission-driven mindset and the resilience to thrive in a small, ambitious team.
