Liberty is an independent membership organisation. It challenges injustice, defends freedom, and campaigns to make sure everyone in the UK is treated fairly.

Liberty is a small organisation, which punches above its weight. The Head of Philanthropy will combine strong leadership with hands on day-to-day delivery, and support a high-performance, returns-centred culture grounded in collaboration, ownership and innovation.

This is a critical role in a vital organisation. Success will see the growth of the organisation through the development of a diverse range of income generation streams, and Liberty being better able to achieve its mission of challenging injustice, defending freedom and campaigning to make sure everyone in the UK is treated fairly.

In this re-imagined role, you will be responsible for securing income from trusts, foundations, major donors and legacies, in addition to revising and developing the fundraising strategy.

The successful candidate is likely to bring a demonstrable track record in securing income from a range of sources, including trusts and foundations. You will enjoy leading and managing teams and working strategically as well as 'hands on' as your remit will include establishing relationships with new, existing, and previous funders.
