Overview
Since our founding, we have always done things differently. Our diverse and global community of world-class academics, staff, students and alumni have the freedom and courage to challenge, question and think differently. We continuously break boundaries and develop solutions to real world problems.
In 2020, we closed one of the most successful fundraising campaigns in the UK's higher education sector, which raised £624M and galvanised our community. We have undertaken a strategic review of our programmes and are investing significantly in our team to deliver on the roadmap ahead. We have created 2 new roles to continue leading key alumni engagement initiatives at UCL. This is an incredibly exciting time as we plan for UCL's biggest ever fundraising and engagement campaign, launching in our bicentenary year, 2026.

* Lead a dynamic, burgeoning team that collaborates across UCL's faculties to design, deliver, and grow innovative programmes that celebrate and showcase the university's world-leading research and teaching.
* Develop an insights-led strategy, with tracking and metrics to review progress and further build the offering, working closely with peers leading the Regions and Programme & Products teams.
* Collaborate across faculties to design, deliver, and grow alumni engagement programmes and experiences, ensuring alignment with UCL's goals and donor community.
* Build and maintain strong relationships with academics, advocates and key stakeholders to gain trust and support for the programme.
Requirements
* Highly collaborative community engagement specialist with Advancement experience.
* Proven track record of working with and getting the best out of advocates and key stakeholders; strong relationship-building skills.
* Entrepreneurial mindset with the energy to explore new ideas and establish a best-in-class alumni engagement programme.
* Ability to develop an insights-led strategy, and to implement tracking and metrics to monitor progress.
Values, diversity and working patterns
Equity, diversity and inclusion are important to us. We are committed to an environment where everyone is encouraged to give their best, and where diverse experiences, perspectives and skills are valued. We prioritise work-life balance and offer agile working and flexibility around working hours. We welcome part-time applications for all opportunities and can consider a 0.8FTE pattern for this role.
