The role of Development Director will be crucial as The Watermill approaches the next chapter of its philanthropic journey. In this role, you will drive individual philanthropy and (alongside the Executive Director) manage trust, foundation and statutory funder relationships as well as corporate partnerships. You will work across The Watermill's staff teams to ensure that everyone at the theatre understands the need for fundraising and is an active ambassador for that support.

We are looking for someone who has a passion for the theatre we produce - this position may be your first Director of Development role, or you could be leading a development function in the wider charity sector and looking to move to the cultural sector. What is important is your ability to communicate the story of our outstanding creative work and its impact on audiences to our supporters, and your ability to enable your colleagues to do same.
