Contract (12-months with potential to extend)
Job description

Do you believe every young person should have the opportunity to thrive, and want to help connect supporters with the chance to make that a reality?

Manchester Youth Zone is looking for a skilled, relationship-driven Philanthropy and Corporate Lead to help grow and nurture a community of major donors and corporate supporters who play a vital role in breathing life into the charity's mission.

Salary: £39,318 to £42,672 FTE
Location: Manchester, with some homeworking (3 days onsite FTE)
Contract: 12-months with potential to extend, 40 hours per week FTE, with flexibility for reduced hours (minimum 3 days per week)
Benefits: 33 days annual leave, pro rata, an additional day off for your birthday, 5% employer pension contribution, access to an Employee Assistance Programme, onsite gym and sports facilities

About the charity

Located in Harpurhey (one of Manchester's most economically deprived areas), Manchester Youth Zone is an established independent charity dedicated to providing young people with somewhere to go, something to do and someone to talk to.

They support young people aged 8 to 19, and up to 25 for those with additional needs, offering high quality youth work, mentoring and targeted support during evenings and weekends. Their purpose is to create passion, purpose and pathways for every young person who walks through their doors.

About the role

Major donors have always been central to the youth zone's story. You will manage a portfolio worth over £1 million, nurturing and uplifting valued supporters, as well as securing new five and six-figure gifts.

You will create thoughtful, personalised donor journeys and steward significant relationships that lead to long-term, multi-year commitments.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone proactive and relationship-led, with the confidence to build trust quickly. Working closely with the Interim Chief Executive, Trustees and senior volunteers during a period of leadership transition, you will open doors, strengthen partnerships and bring the impact of the youth zone's work to life for donors.

There is a very real and significant opportunity for growth and development in this role, for the right candidate.

About You

You bring a strong track record of securing five-figure, multi-year gifts from either businesses or high-net-worth individuals, along with experience building and converting high-value pipelines.

An excellent communicator, you are confident making senior-level, face-to-face asks and developing compelling cases for support.

Strategic, organised and calm under pressure, you can manage competing priorities with ease, always maintaining accuracy and care.

You are moved and motivated by the opportunity to improve young people's lives and driven to deliver outstanding results.

How to Apply

Please send a copy of your profile or CV to Amelia Lee at Charity People, as the first step.

If your experience matches what we're looking for, we'll be in touch with further information on how to make your formal application.

Deadline: 9am on Friday 20th March
