You will have experience in corporate fundraising, partnership management or account management and be able to strengthen relationships with existing partnerships to grow fundraising income. You will have attention to detail and be able to work across multiple projects in a busy team environment and be able to plan workloads effectively to deliver budgeted income from partnerships and initiatives.

And, as the division as a whole continues to grow and develop, it's a truly exciting time to join us.
