The National Lottery Heritage Fund

As the largest funder for the UK's heritage, our vision is for heritage to be valued, cared for and sustained for everyone, now and in the future.

We believe in the power of heritage to ignite the imagination, offer joy and inspiration, and to build pride in place and connection to past.

Our mission is to use our expertise to support and champion the UK's heritage and demonstrate the transformative potential of National Lottery funding through delivering our 10-year strategy Heritage 2033. We ensure that money from the National Lottery makes a decisive difference for people, places and communities.

We are currently recruiting for a full time Head of Investment (London and South) on a permanent contract based in our London or Exeter Office (Hybrid Working).

The primary purpose of this post, in collaboration with an existing Head of Investment, is to jointly lead and manage all investment activity (including National Lottery and other sources) across the London and South Area.

If you are excited about helping ensure that heritage is inclusive and accessible to everyone, for now and future generations, then we want to hear from you.

Applications close on Monday 25 May 2026 at 23:59.
Interviews are expected to take place on Monday 8 June 2026.
