Arabic Speaking - Prospect Research Support Assistant

Overview

The University of Sheffield’s Development, Alumni Relations and Events (DARE) department was set up in 2002. Its aim is to reconnect alumni (former students) with their university, and to encourage them to make charitable donations or provide support in other ways, such as volunteering. Gifts range from modest monthly donations to larger five, six and seven-figure donations for specific projects throughout the University. More than 10,000 individual gifts have now been donated to the University since 2002, totalling more than £24 million in gifts and confirmed pledges.



The Opportunity

As a Prospect Research Support Assistant you will join the Research Team within DARE to aid the fundraising efforts of the Campaigns Team by validating and researching potential new major donors and feeding them into the fundraising pipeline.

At present there is an effort to expand international fundraising into the Middle East. For this the Research Team requires a Prospect Research Support Assistant who is fluent in both written and spoken Arabic. In addition, they must have a good understanding of the Middle East. Particular fundraising efforts will focus on the UAE and Saudi Arabia, so it is desirable if the applicant has an understanding of these cultures.

It would be particularly helpful if the applicant has an understanding of the UAE and/or Saudi Arabia, although this is not essential.

This is a great opportunity to learn about the major gift fundraising world. You will learn how to use sophisticated research techniques to source fundraising potential for the University. These skills are transferrable to any project you may be involved with in the future.

Main Duties and Responsibilities:


  • Trace individuals, validate their biographical information and update their database records with any relevant, new information

  • Qualify individuals’ donation potential and feed them into the prospect pipeline

  • Seek Arabic wealth reports and translate key information into English

  • Support other research projects where applicable

This is excellent experience for anyone thinking of a career in the charity/fundraising sector, business intelligence or other research orientated roles.
