The posting

About Tetra Foundation

Tetra Foundation is a UK-based charity with a mission to transform Nigeria through maritime training. We provide scholarships that equip Nigerian youth with world-class vocational skills, enabling them to build international careers in the maritime industry. This initiative aims to transform not only individual lives but also the prospects of communities and the nation as a whole.

The Foundation was established by Union Maritime, one of the UK’s largest shipowners. Since its inception in 2006, Union Maritime has grown into a leading global operator with significant operations in Nigeria. It also manages Goodwork Crewing, the largest private Nigerian crewing agent, employing over 1,000 Nigerian seafarers. This experience gives us unique insight into both the challenges and opportunities facing Nigeria’s youth, forming the foundation for our transformational mission.

Role Definition: Fundraising Manager

We are seeking an experienced Fundraising Manager to develop and implement the Foundation’s fundraising strategy, securing sustainable income to support programme delivery and long-term organisational growth.

You will work closely with Foundation leadership, Trustees, donors, corporate partners, and programme delivery partners to identify, cultivate and secure funding opportunities from trusts and foundations, corporations, philanthropists and major donors. A key aspect of the role will be creating and managing a robust fundraising pipeline, developing donor relationships, and establishing best-practice fundraising processes and reporting to ensure the long-term sustainability of the Foundation.

Key Responsibilities

· Lead income generation to achieve an annual target of £1.25m+ and developing a strong, sustainable pipeline of trusts, foundations, statutory funding.

· Build and nurture funder relationships, identifying new prospects, developing tailored stewardship plans, and representing the Foundation through meetings, visits and presentations.

· Develop compelling funding applications, working across the organisation to demonstrate impact, understand funding needs and secure multi-year and transformational grants.

· Stay ahead of the funding landscape, monitoring trends and emerging opportunities and advising on potential new sources of income.

· Oversee effective fundraising management, including budgets, reporting, donor records, application deadlines and performance against targets.

Requirements

  • Education to a degree level.
  • 5+ years of experience in fundraising, business development, partnerships or donor relations.
  • Demonstrated track record of securing 6/7-figure+ grants from trusts, foundations, corporate partners and/or major donors.
  • Experience developing and managing fundraising pipelines and income forecasts.
  • Strong proposal writing, bid development and presentation skills.
  • Excellent relationship management and stakeholder engagement abilities.
  • Strong analytical and reporting skills with experience tracking fundraising performance.
  • Excellent communication, organisational and project management skills.
  • Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, growing organisation.

Desirable

  • Knowledge of UK fundraising regulations, Charity Commission requirements and donor compliance.
  • Experience developing corporate partnerships, sponsorships or ESG-related initiatives.
  • Existing network within UK philanthropy, trust and foundation, or corporate giving sectors.
  • Experience supporting organisational growth, fundraising strategy development and income diversification initiatives.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
