Who are LICC?

Imagine if every Christian lived their life as Jesus would.

It would transform the people and places around them. It would change their organisations, communities, and societies. And it would change the world – as God works in and through them, right where they are.

But most Christians tell us they have neither the vision nor the tools for the task. That’s where LICC comes in. We’re here to empower Christians to relate the good news of Jesus to all of life. We work to help people know God more deeply, and bring his wisdom, grace, and truth to everything they do, wherever they are – at work, at college, and at home; in the pub, the shops, and the gym; on social media, in the office, and out with friends.

Director of Philanthropy Role

The Director of Philanthropy will spearhead LICC’s efforts to substantially grow its voluntary income, driving a transformative fundraising strategy to enable the organisation to broaden the reach and impact of its mission.

Working in close partnership with the CEO and leading a dedicated team, the Director will oversee all streams of voluntary income, from major gifts and individual donations to support from trusts and foundations. This leader will ensure each fundraising effort resonates deeply with LICC’s mission of empowering whole-life discipleship, inspiring support that fuels lasting change.

The role involves cultivating and strengthening relationships with existing and prospective donors, identifying new funding opportunities, and preparing compelling funding applications and reports.

This is a full or part-time permanent role from three days a week, based in London with a salary in the range £69,000–£75,000 FTE, depending on experience.

All full-time staff currently work Tuesdays and Wednesdays in the London office, with the flexibility to work from home on other days. Depending on your requirements, we are happy to discuss options for proportion of time in the office and total weekly hours worked at interview.

N.B. There is an occupational requirement for the Director of Philanthropy to have an active personal commitment to the Christian faith. Permitted under Schedule 9, Part 1 of the Equality Act 2010.
