New Development Director
Amanda Lovejoy joins Banner Lake following eleven years as Development Manager at one of the UK's top private boarding schools, Bryanston School, where she was involved in alumni engagement and donor stewardship while managing the school's regular giving and legacy programs. She was responsible for developing giving strategy, development communications and donor stewardship. Her major achievements while there were incorporating a consistent communication strategy that included social media channels, achieving the school's first seven figure legacy, and building regular donor pipelines and income from donations for the three corps areas of development: scholarships, capital and pupil enrichment. Working alongside teaching colleagues she integrated an annual, regional, student-lead Business Conference as part of the school's curriculum, wholly funded by donations, and introduced local financial sponsorship for selected extracurricular classes.
Prior to Bryanston, Amanda spent three years in alumni and development relations at one of the UK's most academic all-girls day schools where she introduced a highly personalized scholarship support initiative. Her wide and extensive career includes six years in show business public relations working on shows such as The National Television Awards and the BAFTA TV Awards, three years in marketing and three years managing international expeditions. We are excited to welcome Amanda to the Banner Lake Club Inc. family and look forward to working with her!
