About the opportunity


Corporate partnerships are critical to delivering our mission and ensuring we can support as many children and young people facing disadvantage to open doors to their future.

The Philanthropy Team as a whole has a combined target income for the current year of £1.83 million (growing to £2.35m as our target for next year) of which approximately £850k is from corporate donors and their foundations.

We have been successful year on year in increasing our fundraising base by building secure multi-year partnerships.

Part of our growth strategy is looking at building stronger relationships with corporate partners, having established a strong multi-year relationship for the first time this year worth £500k annually.

We have a great ability to measure and quantify its impact, which we are looking to better communicate and leverage with current and potential corporate partners.


We're looking for a Corporate Partnerships Manager to lead on our corporate partnership activities and initiatives, including growing income from corporate partners as well as increasing the number of corporate volunteer tutor applications we receive from them.

Working within our Philanthropy Team, the Corporate Partnerships Manager will be responsible for the line-management and development of two Corporate Partnership Coordinators, ensuring that, as a team, you meet your corporate income and volunteer application targets.

Your focus will be on deepening and leveraging relationships with our existing partners, alongside engaging new organisations with our mission and vision.
