Development Administrator

The Opportunity

An exciting opportunity has arisen to join the successful and ambitious Development Office at Hampton School. We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated Administrator to play a key role in supporting our work. The successful candidate will enjoy working collaboratively as part of a team and will be committed to maintaining and managing our database with accuracy and efficiency. This role also involves liaising with a wide range of stakeholders and supporting fundraising events, all aimed at increasing the number of free places available at Hampton.

Hampton challenges and develops young minds, allowing pupils to progress as individuals in a kind and supportive environment where contributing to wider society is engrained in the culture. Development at Hampton has been in place since the establishment of The Fitzwygram Foundation in 2016. Over this period, it has built up strong relationships within the School community and established excellent fundraising foundations. The primary fundraising focus over recent years has been on raising funds for The Fitzwygram Foundation, to provide additional free places at the School.  In total, 107 Senior School pupils are currently attending Hampton on completely free places, of which 18 are funded by the Foundation.

Hampton is one of the country’s foremost independent schools and equity, diversity and inclusion are fundamental to our ethos and the School has a thriving partnerships programme.

The role of Development Administrator is critical to the success of the office and includes both database and general office administration, as well as events. 

The role is full time and based at Hampton School.  The core working hours are 8.45am to 4.45pm, however, a high level of flexibility, commitment and dedication is required, as there will be some evening and weekend work to attend Fitzwygram Foundation and Alumni events.

Previous office and/or database administration experience would be an advantage but the role could also be suitable for graduates looking to enter a career in development. 

The salary will be £28,870 and Hampton also offers an attractive benefits package including generous pension, free lunch, cycle to work scheme, fitness facilities and private health, subject to eligibility.
