Corporate Partnerships Manager

Amnesty International UK (AIUK) has a simple aim: an end to human rights abuses. Independent, international and influential, we campaign for justice, fairness, freedom, and truth wherever they are denied. If you want to use your skills, knowledge, and experience to help fight for human rights, you could be our new Corporate Partnerships Manager.

About the role

The Major Funding Partnerships Directorate is responsible for generating a significant part of AIUK's income, with an ambitious strategy to grow fundraising substantially between 2025 and 2030. The Corporate Partnerships Manager sits at the heart of that ambition – owning a portfolio of high‑profile corporate partnerships and prospects, and bringing an entrepreneurial, impact‑investing mindset to a competitive market. This is not a conventional corporate fundraising role. You will develop creative propositions and identify new routes to value – inspiring companies to engage with Amnesty in ways that go beyond traditional charitable giving.

Day to day, you'll cultivate senior relationships, shape bespoke value propositions, build and maintain a prospect pipeline worth at least three times your annual income target, and brief the Chief Executive and Senior Management Team ahead of C‑suite engagements. You'll also lead on complex partnership negotiations and design high‑impact events that deepen corporate engagement. The human rights impact is real and direct: the income you secure funds Amnesty's campaigning and global advocacy – protecting people from unjust imprisonment and abuse of power around the world. The companies you bring on board don't just support a charity; they become active partners in that mission. This role typically requires 1 day per week in our London office.

The role may be for you if:

• You have experience in major partnership fundraising, with a track record of securing significant five‑to‑six‑figure gifts and growing high‑value relationships.
• You can cultivate and engage senior corporate leaders, and are comfortable briefing the CEO and Senior Management Team to support high‑stakes partnerships with C‑suite contacts.
• You can develop insight‑driven, commercially compelling cases for support – ideally within a campaigning or advocacy‑focused organisation – that inspire companies to invest beyond traditional charitable giving.
• You bring an entrepreneurial approach to prospect research and pipeline development – spotting opportunities beyond the obvious, and building a forward‑looking portfolio worth at least three times the annual income target.
• You collaborate positively and contribute to an inclusive culture, and have a good knowledge of corporate social responsibility programmes and/or social impact investing.

Our Commitment to you

New colleagues receive 27 days leave annually (29 after five years), as well as bank holidays (pro‑rated for part time) and 3 wellbeing days. 2‑5% employee pension contributions are matched at 6‑9% and we offer 6 months full pay for family leave.
