• Build and maintain high-quality profiles of priority donors and prospects.
• Ensure meetings, introductions, and follow-up actions are consistently recorded and progressed.
• Use data and research to identify, segment, and prioritise potential supporters.

Wider Opportunity

While the role is primarily focused on the Foundation, we are looking for someone with a good understanding of the wider Gumball 3000 business.

You should be commercially aware and able to recognise when a relationship or conversation may present a wider opportunity for Gumball — whether through a brand, business, introduction, or collaboration — and confidently connect that opportunity with the appropriate internal team.

About You

You will be someone who is naturally confident with people, enjoys building relationships, and understands how to turn introductions into long-term engagement.

You will ideally have:

• 3+ years' experience in fundraising, philanthropy, partnerships, client relations, or relationship development.
• Experience working with high-net-worth individuals, major donors, entrepreneurs, family offices, or senior business leaders.
• A proven record of generating significant donations, partnerships, or high-value relationships.
• Excellent networking and interpersonal skills.
• Strong written communication and proposal-writing ability.
• Strong research and prospecting skills.
• Excellent organisation, attention to detail, and follow-through.
• Experience using CRM systems and managing relationship data.
• Confidence using data and modern digital tools to work efficiently and identify opportunities.
• A proactive, entrepreneurial approach and the ability to work independently.
• Confidence representing an organisation in high-profile social and professional environments.
• Flexibility to travel internationally when required.

Experience within luxury, automotive, motorsport, entertainment, sport, music, fashion, hospitality, philanthropy, or high-profile international events would be advantageous.

Above all, we are looking for someone who is curious, proactive, and relationship-driven — someone who wants to understand who people are, what matters to them, and how a genuine relationship can be developed.

Why Join Us?

This is an opportunity to play an important role in the continued growth of the Gumball 3000 Foundation while working within one of the world's most recognised automotive and lifestyle brands.

You will have access to a unique international community of entrepreneurs, business leaders, celebrities, athletes, creatives, brands, and philanthropists, and the opportunity to turn those relationships into meaningful support for young people around the world.

You'll work closely with the wider Gumball 3000 team, attend unique international events, and help shape how the Foundation develops its network and fundraising strategy for the future.
