HelpAge International is looking for a dynamic, experienced leader to join us as our next Director of Fundraising and Strategic Partnerships. As we embark on the next phase of our transformation into a partner-led, network-centred organisation in line with our 2030 Strategy, this role will be pivotal. HelpAge is committed to enabling, supporting and strengthening our 200-member global network through collaboration, knowledge exchange, joint strategy development and sustained accompaniment.
The Director of Fundraising and Strategic Partnerships will be instrumental in driving income diversification for the organisation – expanding philanthropic and private sector partnerships, securing contracts, and developing innovative funding models to benefit the entire HelpAge network. You will collaborate closely with network members who contribute strategic funding, lead our fundraising teams, and be an integral member of the Executive Leadership Team, responsible for guiding the organisation as a whole.
We are seeking a commercially minded, results-oriented individual with a strong track record of securing and managing significant income-generating partnerships and delivering substantial income growth. You will bring experience of working within federated or affiliate structures, building and leading high-performing teams to drive funding growth across a global network. Equally important is your ability to build and sustain strategic partnerships and support locally led initiatives that advance our mission.
To apply for this job, please review the details of the vacancy and send your CV and Cover Letter only to jobs@helpage.org not later than Monday, 28 July 2025. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted.
