"Membership and Individual Giving Coordinator"

The Fitzwilliam Museum: Opening up the past to transform our futures.

As the principal museum of the University of Cambridge and the largest cultural venue in the region, The Fitzwilliam Museum acts as a crucial bridge between the University, the City and the rest of the world, and has an international reputation for extraordinary research, world class exhibitions, award-winning public programmes and significant collections spanning many cultures and centuries. The Hamilton Kerr Institute (HKI) is a sub-department of the museum and is one of the world's leading centres for teaching and research in paintings conservation and heritage science.

With over half a million works of art and antiquities spanning many cultures and centuries, the Museum has an international reputation for excellence in research, conservation, exhibitions and learning. As well as circa 500,000 visitors who enjoy the Museum each year, we share our collections with a much wider audience than can physically visit through our touring exhibitions, loans, community engagement, digital programmes and research.

The membership and individual giving team is part of the Audiences and Brand directorate which is responsible for building audiences, growing the Museum's visibility, reach, engagement and income, and cultivating relationships regionally, nationally and globally that are meaningful, relevant and impactful. The division encompasses a wide range of key functions including audience insight, CRM, PR, marketing, digital, interpretation, membership and individual giving, and internal communications.

The Membership and Individual Giving Coordinator is a pivotal new role that will support the strategic development and delivery of the Fitzwilliam Museum's membership and individual giving programmes, with responsibility for managing a refreshed and revitalised Friends scheme and optimising pathways to generating greater in-person and digital donations and support. Working in collaboration with colleagues in the Audiences and Brand directorate and with teams across the Museum, the role holder will use data-driven insights, creative ideas, and strong interpersonal and organisational skills to achieve agreed KPIs and targets.

With strategic oversight from the Membership and Individual Giving Manager and support from the Membership Assistant, the role holder will deliver the cultivation, stewardship and administration of the Friends scheme to shape and deliver outstanding experiences for our supporters, strengthen engagement and loyalty, recruit new Friends, boost retention and maximise lifetime value.

You'll be expected to work a minimum of 3 days on site, dependent on events.

In return we offer an encouraging and supportive environment, an attractive pension scheme, generous holiday allowance and many employee benefits such as a shopping discounts scheme.

Once an offer of employment has been accepted, the successful candidate will be required to undergo a basic disclosure (criminal records check) check, a health assessment and a security check.
