Sponsorship & partnerships manager (maternity cover)

Location: Cove Park, Argyll &amp; Bute, Scotland
Reporting to: CEO
Permanent, 3/5 days per week negotiable, flexible working supported
Salary based on experience
 
If you have fundraising experience in an arts/culture, heritage, or education setting, this could be your dream role!
Cove Park is an international artists’ residency located on an outstanding 50-acre rural site on Scotland’s west coast, one hour north of Glasgow. Over its 22-year history, Cove Park has hosted approximately 4,000 national and international artists and researchers, working in all art forms and at every career stage. We are committed to supporting artists by offering the time and support required for research, the production of new work, peer-to-peer exchange, and fostering a stimulating context in which new ideas can be developed, tested, and shared. An average of 10 artists are on site at any one time, taking part in a range of residencies and programmes that run throughout the year, creating opportunities for the collective discovery of alternative approaches, the acquisition of new skills and knowledge. 
Francesca Bertolotti-Bailey (CEO) was appointed in November 2020 and leads a cohort of twelve professionals responsible for all aspects of the organisation’s programmes and operations.
Under this new leadership, Cove Park is moving beyond the boundaries of the traditional ‘time, space, freedom’ residency, towards an enquiry-based model to encourage cross-disciplinary work and collective intelligence around pressing global concerns. This vision hinges upon a deeper engagement with our geographical and socio-economic context in the belief that working at a hyper-local level helps us to understand and affect change at a planetary scale. This approach is founded upon the belief that artistic research is uniquely placed to unpack some of the most intractable, multi-scalar problems of our times, and that art’s transformative power is amplified when the arts work in collaboration with other disciplines. Cove Park is currently expanding the range and number of artforms and disciplines involved in its programme and involving other sectors – such as those of academic and scientific research, technological innovation, and the creative industries as a whole.
 
The role
The director of development is a new role, developed in response to the ambitions of Cove Park, its renewed vision and its ever expanding programme, and the current funding climate. The role will work in close collaboration with the CEO and will be responsible for planning, developing and delivering Cove Park’s fund-raising and business development strategy. The role will initiate, nurture and leverage strategic relationships locally, nationally and internationally with funders, donors and prospective supporters, and will actively create or seek out new business opportunities for Cove Park – all with the aim of ensuring the financial resilience of the organisation. 
 
Key responsibilities will include:
<ul>
<li>Support the CEO on the development of the organisation’s business plan, ensuring it clearly demonstrates how we will meet Creative Scotland goals, as well as our own priorities</li>
<li>Develop and deliver a wide-ranging, long-term fundraising strategy which delivers the objectives of Cove Park and its renewed vision, including governmental sources, international agencies, trusts &amp; foundations, corporate, HNWI, legacies, and donations</li>
<li>Work with the CEO, the Board and the Team to redesign and implement Cove Park’s individual giving scheme</li>
<li>Work with the Programme Team to develop and deliver a national and international programme of independently-funded residencies for individuals, groups, corporate and institutions</li>
<li>Develop and deliver new, alternative ways of developing Cove Park’s core business, including devising new types of events or formats that may attract new partners to the organization</li>
<li>Oversee and develop commercial income generation opportunities, including sales of limited editions and merchandise</li>
<li>Plan and manage the Development budget, including assessing feasible goals and setting robust income targets, reporting on updated forecasts to the CEO, and to the Finance and Fund-raising Subcommittees as appropriate</li>
<li>Develop an effective fundraising/customer relationship management (CRM) database, compliant with GDPR, and other ICT tools including income tracking &amp; tax compliance in collaboration with the Finance Manager</li>
<li>Work with the team to ensure effective evaluation of Cove Park’s activities and to support reporting, advocacy to funders and inform strategic planning</li>
<li>Work within the context of the Cove Park’s IDEA policy and other policies, in the planning and delivery of services, and in all internal and external relationships</li>
</ul>
