Individual Giving Development Manager

Bristol Beacon’s Individual Giving Manager will implement an effective strategy to identify, cultivate and retain new major donors and patrons, in order to achieve agreed income targets for individual giving.

Reporting to the Development Director and working with a high-performing and committed team, you will also support and attend regular development evening events as necessary.

The successful candidate will ideally have a proven track record in achieving fundraising targets from individual giving and a personal track record in securing new gifts and retaining support from individuals. You will be a natural relationship builder with supporters and stakeholders at all levels.

The Development Team are responsible for the fundraising strategy and activity for Bristol Beacon, and we are currently in the final stages of our major building transformation to create a world-class concert hall for the region and looking towards reopening in autumn 2023.  Bristol Beacon has been part of Bristol’s cultural heritage for 150 years.  Our vision is to unite people through the joy of live music, and we achieve this through a diverse programme of inspirational musical experiences.

Diversifying our workforce

We are committed to developing a more diverse workforce through applicants with the skills and experience to help us to widen our perspective and better serve the needs of our communities.

We particularly encourage applications from disabled and ethnically diverse backgrounds as these groups are currently underrepresented within the arts and culture sectors.
