Harris Hill is delighted to be partnering once again with Variety, the Children's Charity to recruit a Corporate Partnerships Manager

This is a truly exciting time to join Variety — a financially stable, 75-year-old charity with an ambitious new strategy, a dynamic leadership team, and a brand-new Chair appointed for 2026. Variety is entering a bold new phase, aiming to win some of the best and most high-profile corporate partnerships in the sector.

Salary: Circa £40,000 per annum (full-time equivalent) – open to negotiation based on experience

You will be joining a collaborative, empowering team culture under the leadership of the Director of Fundraising and Chief Executive. Both bring a fresh, dynamic, and supportive leadership style, offering fantastic mentorship and career development opportunities.

• Solid experience in a charity corporate partnerships team — either at Executive or Manager level.
• A strong track record in both account management and new business development.
• An entrepreneurial, energetic mindset and a real drive to succeed.
• Strong relationship management skills and the ability to deliver exceptional supporter experiences.
