Join our interim fundraising and partnerships team

Bradford has been named as UK City of Culture 2025. Our vision is to use arts and culture to fuel the social, economic and creative renaissance of our district; to make Bradford one of the most welcoming places in the UK where artists, producers, audiences and creative entrepreneurs can flourish.

Prior to the appointment of the new full time fundraising team in early 2023 we need to nurture the partnerships developed during the bid, encourage new bid partners to continue their support through the delivery period, develop new partnerships and identify new funding sources, both public and private. We are therefore recruiting a small interim fundraising team for the period August 2022 to March 2023.

Fundraiser

You will nurture the business partnerships we developed during the bid period (including some who have already committed to continue their support through to 2026), and identify potential new partnerships – in the public and private sectors and with Trusts and Foundations. You’ll create mutually beneficial packages with the corporate sector and support the Interim Director with our relationships with government agencies and other strategic stakeholders. You will also develop and refine our partnership policies and frameworks.
