Development Office
The Development Office is located on the University of Nottingham's King's Meadow Campus, and has 22 staff. The Development Office incorporates fundraising, alumni relations, research and stewardship. Corporate teams within marketing provide support on events and publications which support an ambitious communications and events plan. The Director is supported currently by a Deputy, who leads the fundraising team, the Head of Alumni Relations and an Associate Director for Information Systems and a Director of International Development. Each of these will be a direct report.
The Director of Development will report directly to the Vice-Chancellor, Professor David Greenaway relating to Campaign matters and major donors. Pro Vice-Chancellor Professor Chris Rudd will take Management Board Responsibility for the overall development function including broader activities around Alumni engagement and stewardship.
What is the Campaign for Nottingham?
The Campaign for Nottingham sets out to raise £100m from philanthropic sources to support our 2015 ambitions of being a global, top 50 University. The Campaign breaks down into 4 themes, addressing our priorities of world changing research, student experience, community and internationalisation. The University of Nottingham is already engaged in the quiet phase of a multi-year comprehensive campaign. Expected to secure £100 Million by 2015, the Campaign will seek private philanthropy under four major themes: Community, Internationalisation, Student Experience and Solving Global Problems. Each theme presents a compelling portfolio of transformative projects that will engage our closest friends and alumni as well as the wider University community. Each theme and its underlying series of funding opportunities are being tested with the University's closest friends and supporters through a feasibility study. Iain More Associates have the contract and the imperative to complete the study in advance of the new Director's arrival in post.
