14 Sep Ruth O´Hanlon, new Campaign Director at Heriot-Watt University

We are very pleased to announce that Ruth O’Hanlon has been appointed as new Campaign Director at Heriot-Watt University. Founded through philanthropy in 1821, Heriot-Watt was looking for an exceptional fundraising practitioner to prepare for their first institution-wide multi-million-pound campaign and they are very happy to have found the perfect candidate among the pool provided by Daryl Upsall International.

A University Advancement leader with extensive experience in philanthropic fundraising, Ruth is now looking forward to “working alongside the principal and the team at Heriot-Watt to harness the power of philanthropy to make the world a more just, more equitable, and more sustainable place for all.”

“Zoe Oldham and the team at Daryl Upsall International were the professional, knowledgeable, and friendly faces in the recruitment process, and made the journey towards a new role an easy and quick one”, she added.

Heather McGregor, Provost of the University, shared: “Daryl Upsall International are the go-to search firm when you need development talent; they offer a truly international approach which delivers access to a wide and varied talent pool.”

We wish Ruth and Heriot-Watt University great success on this new fundraising adventure together!
