Job Summary
A fantastic opportunity for a highly motivated, capable and experienced fundraiser to join our small management team at a pivotal moment and help drive the next chapter in AAM’s already storied history.
Job Description
Alongside artistic excellence, fundraising has been vital to the AAM's success since it registered as a charity in 2000. The orchestra's financial strength stems from the ongoing generosity of an ever-expanding family of supporters who donated more than £430k last year to sustain the AAM's work.
Overall, the orchestra is funded by a mixture of income generated by concerts in the UK and abroad, royalties and other residuals, Orchestra Tax Relief and a large group of private donors (individuals and trusts & foundations).
Individual giving at the AAM is supported by three membership schemes: Academy, Associates and Friends. Together, these make up the orchestra's closest group of supporters. These individuals are at the heart of our work, and we are committed to developing deep and long-lasting relationships with them all.
The AAM has an established track record of generous support from trusts & foundations, as well as from public funders. The orchestra was an Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation from 2012-15 and has received numerous Grants for the Arts and other support from that funding body. Further, our current season is the first of four to be sponsored by the Arts and Humanities Research Council, a division of UK Research and Innovation.
Coming seasons will see continued expansion of our international touring work, delivery of several significant recorded, filmed and digital initiatives, and the further development of AAMplify Artists, our innovative side-by-side education scheme. As such, this position is a fantastic opportunity for a highly motivated, capable and experienced fundraiser to join our small management team at a pivotal moment and help drive the next chapter in AAM's already storied history. He or she will be well supported by the Board of Trustees, its Chair, the Chief Executive and the Development Board; as well as a Development & Events Co-ordinator, who provides excellent day-to-day departmental support.
Application deadline: 12.00pm on Friday 31 January 2025
