About Brighton Table Tennis Club
Brighton Table Tennis Club is the UK’s first Club of Sanctuary and a national leader in community-led sport. We believe table tennis is a powerful tool for connection, confidence, and social change. Every week, we work with hundreds of people across Brighton & Hove — from young people in care to adults with learning disabilities, unaccompanied asylum-seeking children, older people, and everyone in between.
We are now looking for a Philanthropy Manager to help us grow the resources we need to keep this work thriving.
The Role
This is a key, new role at BTTC. You will lead our philanthropic fundraising, build meaningful relationships with donors and funders, and help secure long-term support for our community-driven programmes. You’ll work closely with the Director, Finance Manager, and Board of Trustees on strategic direction along with coaches, young leaders, volunteers, and participants to bring their stories and impact to life.
