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 new 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 on a permanent contract based in our Belfast Office (Hybrid Working).

The primary purpose of this post is to lead and manage all investment activity across Northern Ireland in collaboration with the Director of Northern Ireland.

The Head of Investment is responsible for ensuring good collaboration between the Northern Ireland investment team, other parts of the team, other parts of Business Delivery and the wider Heritage Fund and Memorial Fund. They will also lead and/or take part in a range of other cross-departmental and cross-organisational activities as required.

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.
