The Churchill Fellowship is a community of changemakers whose mission is to learn from the world and transform lives across the UK and this role is pivotal to our work.

We support outstanding individuals pursuing their own vision for change in an issue where they have first-hand experience. They are driven by a personal commitment to tackle today’s key issues, to develop new solutions for their communities and sectors, and to exchange ideas throughout the UK and beyond. They work across all of today’s most pressing challenges, from protecting the environment to preventing domestic abuse, from increasing youth employment to enriching urban spaces and much more. Collectively, they create change that reaches across the country.

THE ROLE

We’ve been backing changemakers since 1965 and 2025 marks our 60th Anniversary. During the year we’ll be celebrating our 6000 exceptional Fellows, from all backgrounds, life experiences and ages, and their remarkable achievements. Collectively our Fellows represent a unique and influential community of changemakers that operates across all four nations of the UK.

As Engagement Director, you will be instrumental in strengthening this vibrant community, forging influential partnerships, and building the profile and reputation of our work. This is a leadership role with real impact, where you will have the freedom to shape strategy, build networks, and champion the incredible work of our Fellows. 

If you are a strategic thinker, a natural connector, relationship builder and passionate about making a difference, we would love to hear from you. I hope you will consider bringing your expertise and energy to our team—and to a mission that truly changes lives.
