About the Role

The Chapter of Peterborough Cathedral seeks to appoint a motivated, professional, and values-driven Fundraising Officer to join the team at an exciting time in our history. As we look to the future, we have ambitious plans to grow our impact, strengthen our financial sustainability, and play an even greater role as a place of worship, heritage, culture, and community.

Through our Strategic Review and emerging Masterplan, we are building a Cathedral that is resilient, welcoming, and relevant for generations to come. Fundraising will play a key role in making this vision a reality. We are moving towards a more strategic approach, building lasting relationships with supporters, developing new funding opportunities, and creating a sustainable future for our nationally significant Cathedral.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
