- Build relationships with UK and European philanthropy influencers, associations, and media — including membership bodies, to widen distribution for Foundant content and events and support European positioning
- Plan and run in-person events across the UK and near EU, from lunch and learns to larger panels and support conference presences end to end (venue, logistics, speakers, promotion, follow-up)
- Represent Foundant at relevant UK and European industry conferences and sector gatherings
- Develop demand-generation content specific to the UK and European philanthropic sector: eBooks, webinars, panels, reports, and blog posts

- Support lead generation and conversion through SEO and AEO (answer engine optimization) for UK/EU search and AI-assistant visibility, capturing leads from across the wider region
Skills
- 7+ years of marketing experience, with a significant portion working indepentantly (not just part of a large in house team)
- Background spanning both the philanthropic/nonprofit sector and tech/SaaS

- Must be legally eligable to work in the UK or EU
- Existing relationships within the UK or European philanthropic or grantmaking ecosystem, including membership bodies such as PHILEA
