Trinity Development & Alumni

Our Team

Nestled in the heart of Trinity, right in Front Square on College Green, Trinity Development & Alumni (TDA) is the bridge between the university and its global community of alumni, donors, and friends. Our work is all about connection - whether it's building meaningful donor relationships, launching transformative philanthropic campaigns, hosting vibrant events, publishing engaging alumni journals, or collaborating with Trinity chapters around the world.

Behind it all is a passionate team of 50 professionals, bringing creativity, dedication, and expertise across fundraising, alumni engagement, communications and events, and business intelligence and analytics. Together, we help Trinity thrive, ensuring its legacy of excellence continues for generations to come.

Each week in TDA is different which allows my job to be both challenging and rewarding at the same time.
Anthony Hopper, Alumni Relations Executive
It is inspiring to work with our donors and alumni in helping to create opportunities for Trinity staff and students. TDA and our donors ensure that the brightest minds can benefit from Trinity’s first-class teaching, whatever their circumstances, by removing barriers and levelling the playing field. I love hearing of the real and tangible difference that our work is making in the lives of the Trinity community.
Niamh McCourt, Fundraising Manager
I work with motivated and supportive people who are creative and focussed, in equal measure. I enjoy being part of a lively and diverse work place that employs a dynamic approach to tasks and solutions.
James Fleming, Digital Marketing Officer
