London, United Kingdom Save the Children Full time

Closing Date: 18 August 2024

Ref 6783

Save the Children UK has an exciting opportunity for an influential and collaborative individual to join us as a Partnerships Manager with proven experience in either corporate partnerships, within the commercial sector, or partnerships more widely. 

About Us 

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm.  When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave.  We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach. 

About you 

As our Partnerships Manager, act as the day-to-day lead manager and central point of contact for major partnerships, ensuring the full potential value of these partnerships are maximised. You will work closely with our Programme Management team to support the successful delivery of our Programme for our global top ten partnerships.

You will develop and deliver long term growth strategies for our partnerships, proactively identifying and pursuing new opportunities that align with Save the Children and our partners priorities.

Additionally, you will achieve and exceed income targets or agreed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) set for the partnership, leveraging resources to support the achievement of partnership's goals, monitor progress, and evaluate benefits. 

In this role, you will:  

Develop and maintain trusted relationships with key stakeholders and partners, supporting them in ethical storytelling and communication efforts. Achieve financial and non-financial targets by creating and implementing detailed strategies for short-term income and long-term growth. Monitor and manage income, expenditure, and resources, providing regular forecasting and analysis to ensure financial objectives are met.  Collaborate internally across Save the Children and with external markets to leverage resources and experience, ensuring partnerships align with organizational values and policies. Prepare and adapt various communications, including presentations, proposals, social media content, and reports, tailored to different audiences.  Support senior colleagues and the broader Partnerships & Philanthropy team, including potential UK or international travel and engagement with legal and marketing teams for contract and project execution. 

To be successful, it is important that you have: 

A growth mindset to drive forward progress with vision, energy, creativity and in a proactive nature. Strong communication skills combined with strong project management, organisational and relationship building skills. You will also have solid experience of managing complex partnerships, or within the commercial sector, to demonstrate the key elements required to succeed in this role. Experience in, or a strong desire and willingness to learn about international development. Experience in managing growth opportunities/sales pipeline, with solid outcomes and results. Ability to focus on the achievement of financial targets and views issues in terms of costs, profits, markets and added values. 

What we offer you: 

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance. To have the best (and happiest) employees we focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work. We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day. You can find our employment offer here. 

Closing Date: August 18th, 2024 

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately, once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:

The majority of our roles can be performed remotely in the UK, but there are likely to be times when you will be required to come to your contracted office (up to 2-4 days per month or 6-8 days per quarter).  This will be agreed with your Line Manager and team and is intended to be time spent on collaborating with colleagues and relationship building. 

Please note: travel costs to your contracted office will be at your own expense. 

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
