Theos is a Christian think tank which seeks a world in which Christian ideas about human flourishing are drawn upon to answer some of the world’s biggest challenges. We stimulate debate about the place of religion in society, challenging and changing ideas through research, commentary and events.

We are seeking a self–motivated and detail–orientated individual to oversee the effective running of Theos’ supporter relations programme and support the growth of our fundraising from individual donors. In this role, you will manage key donor relationships, co–ordinate mailings and plan supporter events. You will work closely with our Communications team to develop and implement creative strategies that inspire generous support through digital and social media channels. Your responsibilities will also include developing a new legacy fundraising stream and ensuring all supporter data is managed in compliance with data protection legislation.

With hands–on experience in charity fundraising and CRM database management, you will track and report financial performance against fundraising targets, collaborating with our Philanthropy and Fundraising teams to maximise giving opportunities. Your excellent communication and organisational skills will enable you to prepare compelling cases for support and build strong, lasting relationships with donors.

If this sounds like you and you have the legal right to work and remain in the UK, we’d love to hear from you. Please provide your CV and a 250–word statement that sets out why you’re the best person for this position. For the purposes of your cover letter, we ask that you do not use AI–generated content. We would like to hear your own thoughts, experiences and motivations in your own words.

Theos is part of Bible Society and is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We value diversity and aspire to reflect this in our workforce. We welcome applications from people representing all sections of the community.

Our commitment

As a Christian organisation, we believe you were created with a unique character. You have gifts and abilities that are all your own. So we’re willing to explore how what you have might fit what we need.

The checklist

We know there’s no such thing as the perfect candidate. You don’t have to tick every box on the job description before you can even think of applying to work for us. If you think you’ve got most of what we want and you’re excited about what we’re doing, go ahead. 

It’s personal

You have a life outside work and we want you to be able to live it well. So we’re happy to talk to you about flexible working hours and working from home. We aren’t impressed if you respond to emails at midnight.

Learn and grow

When you’re trained in a new skill or learn a different perspective, it benefits you and it benefits us. We’re committed to making it possible for everyone to flourish and be the best they can be, with a huge variety of learning resources available.

Together and apart

We believe in home working where it’s appropriate, and during lockdown we made that work really well. But we know how important it is to meet face to face, too. We’re committed to making the office an enriching environment, where people are glad to be.

Celebrating difference

Universal acceptance for everyone, everywhere is at the heart of our organisation. We promote diversity of thought, culture and background, which connects the entire Bible Society family. As such, Bible Society is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We value diversity and aspire to reflect this in our workforce. We welcome applications from people representing all sections of the community.
