Welcome to MAP!
About the Role
Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP) is responding to the largest emergency in our 40-year history. Over the last year, support for our cause has seen significant growth in income as tens of thousands of supporters have joined MAP. Our challenge now is to retain this interest and ensure we sustain income as we respond to the ongoing emergency and the longer-term health of Palestinians over the coming years. With an ambition to be a £50m organisation in the next five years, the Prospect Research Manager will play a key role in enabling over one million Palestinians to access improved healthcare annually by 2028.
In this role, you will be responsible for identifying and researching new major donors, trusts, and corporate prospects, ensuring that all data is accurately managed and compliant with GDPR and data protection laws. You will produce detailed, qualified donor profiles and briefing documents to support prospect meetings and events. Additionally, you will track and report on pools of prospective donors aligned with MAP's strategic priorities, helping to deliver qualified prospects at various giving levels to meet global fundraising targets. You’ll work collaboratively across the organisation to map networks of Trustees, Patrons, and other key ambassadors while using fundraising analytics to manage the prospect pipeline and present findings to a range of audiences. You will also support the development of a Donor Prospecting Strategy with the Head of Philanthropy and work closely with the wider fundraising team to maximise opportunities by leveraging CRM data and providing insights into warm supporters from other income streams.
About You
We’re looking for someone with a strong understanding of major donor, trusts, and corporate fundraising, and experience in philanthropy, fundraising practices, and donor motivations. You will be skilled in conducting in-depth research on high-net-worth individuals, company directors, and family trusts, ensuring compliance with GDPR, data protection, and charity law. You will have experience producing detailed donor reports and profiles and be comfortable using fundraising databases or CRMs. Strong analytical skills are essential, as is the ability to synthesise data and identify trends that support strategic decision-making.
You’ll be a clear and confident communicator, able to present your findings effectively to key stakeholders. With experience in managing a portfolio of potential donors and prioritising your work, you’ll be organised and results-driven. We’re looking for someone who is passionate about our mission and values and committed to continuous professional development. You’ll also understand the importance of confidentiality and promote diversity and equality in the workplace.
