Craigmyle Fundraising Consultants is delighted to welcome Jessica Jacoby to the team.

Jessica is a fundraising consultant specialising in trusts and foundations funding for climate, nature and public health projects. With more than a decade of experience in the UK and international not-for-profit sector, she has secured more than £60M ($85M) in grants from major climate foundations across the UK, Europe and U.S. — working both within large development departments and as a solo fundraiser, giving her first-hand insight into the challenges fundraisers face in each context.

At Craigmyle, Jessica will join our team of senior fundraising consultants offering customised fundraising expertise to charities and non-profits across the UK.

As former Chief Operating Officer and Company Secretary of the China Dialogue Trust, a UK registered charity with offices in China, India and Brazil, Jessica brings deep experience in organisational management, cross-border fundraising and regulatory compliance. She holds an MSc in Environmental Technology from Imperial College London, giving her the grounding to partner effectively with programmatic experts across a wide range of environmental topics.

Commenting on her appointment, Jessica said:

I’m excited to join Craigmyle as it seeks to expand its work with the environment sector. Helping organisations to secure the resources they need to tackle the climate and biodiversity crisis, including its impacts on public health, has been my life’s work. I look forward to strengthening this offering by joining forces with my Craigmyle colleagues to deploy our decades of combined fundraising expertise and experience across multiple funding streams and sectors in service of this shared mission.

Director, Sian Newton added:

We are delighted to welcome Jessica to Craigmyle. Her expertise in environmental fundraising, and her track record securing major grant funding for climate, nature and public health work, make her a fantastic addition to our team and our clients as we grow our environmental offer.
