How do you turn data into action? What role does ancestry play in prospect research? Ryan Burdock, Senior Recruitment Consultant at Prospectus, sat down with Jason Briggs to find out the answers to these questions and more.
I’ve been recruiting fundraisers for nearly four years now for a range of organisations including Tate, London Business School, Science Museum, Macmillan and Oxbridge Colleges and it has often surprised me that more development professionals don’t look to transfer their experience into a different cause, because when it happens it often yields mutually beneficial results for both parties.
As fundraising plays an increasingly significant role within the sector, the profession is becoming ever more competitive. The demand for talented fundraisers is growing and as investments are made into new revenue streams, organisations recognise the need to diversify funding.
