About Us

Sported is a leading charity supporting the UK's largest network of sport and physical activity groups and we exist to provide the skills, resources and funding needed for them to become sustainable and deliver services to the young people and communities they serve.

It has never been a harder time to be a young person growing up in the UK. Poverty, crime and mental health issues coupled with youth unemployment and COVID-19, have compounded already disadvantaged communities and individuals and widened inequalities.

We support the thousands of community sports groups that seek to remove barriers from young people's lives to allow them to thrive against the odds.

- 25 days' holiday in addition to statutory bank holidays
- Two additional days of personal leave per year for religious holidays and/or wellbeing days
- Volunteer Days - two additional days of paid leave each year to volunteer for another charity or our members
- Up to five days of paid study leave for self-funded education/training
- Flexible working arrangements
- A confidential counselling service
- Access to a pension scheme to give you peace of mind
- Virtual Diversity & Inclusion 'Open Space' every month
- Cycle to Work Scheme to support our commitment to promoting healthy living
- Discounted offer for a 12-month Tastecard+ membership

This is an exceptional opportunity for a leader with corporate fundraising experience and an excellent grasp of working across all aspects of income generation to join our impactful organisation.

You'll have the chance to directly contribute to transforming the lives of young people across the UK as you take on a vital leadership role that will shape and implement our fundraising strategy, ensuring our long-term sustainability and impact.

Plus, with hybrid working arrangements, wellbeing support and holistic benefits, we'll make sure you have everything you need to achieve your ideal work/life balance whilst progressing professionally.

So, if you want to join our mission-driven charity and make a significant impact on the future of young people, then apply today

The Role

As our Head of Fundraising and Partnerships, you will lead on all aspects of our fundraising activity.

Specifically, you will increase and diversify our revenue streams, developing a new fundraising strategy focused on growth and supporting us to meet organisational objectives.

Creating a programme of offers and products, you'll ensure they resonate the needs of corporates and the Sported network, providing clarity, impact and scalability for funders.

You'll also establish a pipeline of multi-year funders and seek new business opportunities, developing our existing partnerships and embedding a partnership framework to support ongoing funding.

Additionally, you will:

- Work with the Marketing and Communication Team to develop an engagement plan for corporates and the statutory sector
- Keep up to date with corporate and third sector trends

About You

To be considered as our Head of Fundraising and Partnerships, you will need:

- A proven track record of securing new business and expanding existing relationships
- Experience taking corporate relationships from identification through to contract negotiation and renewal
- Experience working across all aspects of income generation
- Experience creating pitches and presenting to corporate prospects
- Experience creating income products and packages from the needs of beneficiaries
- A good understanding of the importance that CSR and/or social value plays in the marketing strategy of major brands and/or corporations
- Excellent leadership skills

Other organisations may call this role Senior Fundraising Manager, Fundraising Manager, Head of Fundraising, Head of Public Fundraising, Head of Partnerships, Head of Philanthropy and Partnerships, Head of Philanthropy & Fundraising Partnerships, or Director of Income Generation.
