We don’t expect you to tick every single box, but here’s what would make you shine:

• A natural communicator who enjoys connecting with people from all walks of life.
• Customer service experience - you’re proactive, solutions‑focused and not easily flustered.
• Comfortable with numbers: you’ll be handling membership fees and putting together basic financial reports.
• Organised, collaborative and good at juggling tasks.
• Tech‑savvy with CRM systems and office tools.
• Bonus points if you’ve worked with membership organisations before (but it’s not a deal‑breaker).

We have regular team meetings in the West Midlands so you'll need to be based within reasonable travelling distance. Ideally, too, you'll have a valid driving licence.

Contract: Permanent, 35 hours per week (flexible working considered)

Every child with cancer deserves the chance to survive, no matter where they are born. But in many low-income countries, too many lives are still lost to a curable disease. At World Child Cancer, we are committed to changing this reality. We partner with hospitals across Africa and Asia to improve early diagnosis, strengthen healthcare systems, remove barriers to treatment and ensure children and their families receive the holistic support they need to survive and thrive.

About the role

This is a newly created and high-impact role, perfect for someone who wants to build and drive a corporate fundraising programme with ambition. Reporting to the Head of Philanthropy and Partnerships, you will shape our corporate income strategy, identify exciting new business opportunities, and cultivate high-value, multi-year partnerships that accelerate our mission.

Your work will open doors, build brand visibility and unlock support from companies who want to make a measurable difference to children facing cancer across the world. A significant part of the role will be to develop new business.

What you’ll do

· Lead the development of World Child Cancer’s corporate fundraising portfolio, unearthing and securing new six- and seven-figure partners

· Develop strategic plans and a compelling suite of partnership opportunities, benefits and supporter engagement products

· Proactively engage with and cultivate relationships with new donors and steward existing funders.

· Attend key networking and industry events to build visibility and pipeline

· Work collaboratively to create powerful proposals, cases for support and investment-ready budgets

What we’re looking for

We’re searching for someone experienced in corporate fundraising, who cares about our mission, is proactive, confident and experienced in developing new business.

You’ll bring:

• A successful track record in high-value business development or corporate fundraising, including securing six-figure, multi-year support
• Excellent relationship-building skills, with the ability and confidence to interact with new and existing companies
• Experience of successfully developing cultivation plans to engage new funders
• Ability to research and identify potential new funders
• Ability to translate complex programme detail into compelling pitches, proposals and reports
• Ability to help develop and report on project budgets
• Experience to multi-task and prioritise efficiently
• A collaborative and proactive mindset, and ability to work on own initiative
• A commitment to improving the lives of children with cancer globally
• Understanding of project management

Why join us?

You’ll be part of a small, ambitious and supportive team with a proven track record and the scope to grow. With corporate fundraising still an under-developed income stream at World Child Cancer, there is a genuine opportunity to make your mark, influence strategy, and see the impact of your work on children and families around the world.

Terms of employment:

• Generous 8% employer pension contribution after 3 months
• 25 days annual leave + bank holidays + an additional day at Christmas
