**In relation to Fundraising and Corporate Engagement**
- Develop the overall governance of the charity’s fundraising and corporate engagement approach with effective record keeping in line with GDPR, privacy and accounting controls and regulatory requirements.
- Lead the Charity’s opportunity identification and pipeline generation of fundraising and support the CEO in the delivery and realisation of those opportunities in support of the strategic aims and budget needs.
- Engage with leading figures across public life and UK corporates to ensure a diverse and appropriate Steering Committee and charity membership that is inclusive and reflective of all aspects of UK society and Nations.
- Ensure all strategic plans are appraised and aligned to both short-term and long-term objectives with performance variances understood.
- Monitor the charity’s fundraising and engagement processes advising the Board on any areas of weakness.
