About Brian Davies
Consultancy
Brian Davies Consultancy is a Sutton Coldfield-based agency with in-depth knowledge of local issues and a commitment to the community.
I draw on many years of fundraising experience within the West Midlands area and beyond, bringing a pro-active, ideas-based approach that benefits from unique contacts and sustainable, repeatable and scalable donor acquisition and stewardship.
Having worked in small teams, I have experience in all aspects of fundraising in both the education and charity sectors. I am adept at the foundations of sustainable fundraising; Regular Giving and Gifts in Wills. I have experience of cultivating High Net Worth Individuals to make six-figure gifts and have overseen national award-winning awareness campaigns that have generated additional income.
I have significant experience utilising events to engage with supporters and cultivating them into donors. In the past I've overseen Golf Days, Ladies Lunches, Networking and Sporting Dinners for hundreds of people.
I established a Corporate Partnerships Programme that generated significant income and pro-bono improvements for the school whilst at BVGS. At its peak, there were over 40 partners each paying an annual subscription to gain exposure to the parents and alumni of the school, and that led to one partner getting a £20,000 order from a parent following a note of their support in the school newsletter. Whilst at UKST, I managed several corporate accounts, including NFU Mutual and Microsoft, and worked closely with both Irwin Mitchell and Iceland Foods.
