Fundraising & Corporate Partnerships Manager

MCKS Charitable Foundation UK
Full Time | Hybrid | National Role
Salary: £40,000 - £45,000 

Help Us Build the Next Phase of Growth

MCKS Charitable Foundation UK is an ambitious and rapidly growing charity supporting schools and communities across the UK through school pantry programmes, breakfast clubs and wider wellbeing initiatives that help children and families experiencing food insecurity.

We currently support around 180 schools nationally, with a long-term vision to expand to 500 schools and beyond.

As part of this exciting growth phase, we are investing in two of the charity’s first full-time paid roles to help build the next stage of MCKS’ fundraising, partnerships, impact and operational infrastructure.

The Corporate Partnerships & Fundraising Manager will work very closely alongside our Schools, Community & Impact Manager, with both roles playing a key part in helping shape the future growth of the charity.

Together, these roles will help strengthen supporter engagement, develop partnerships, improve impact reporting, increase fundraising income and expand the charity’s national reach.

This is a genuinely hands-on opportunity to help build something meaningful from the ground up. Whilst significant growth and development is already underway, the charity is still evolving its infrastructure, systems and processes. We are therefore looking for someone who enjoys working within a growing environment and is excited by the opportunity to help shape and build new ways of working.

This is not a role for someone who only wants to sit behind strategy documents.

We are looking for someone who can think strategically whilst also being willing to roll their sleeves up and deliver — someone who enjoys building relationships, creating opportunities, driving activity forward and helping turn ideas into tangible results.

About the Role

Working closely with the charity’s leadership, trustees and Schools, Community & Impact Manager, you will help develop and deliver a diversified fundraising and partnerships strategy that supports the charity’s ambitious growth plans.

This is a varied, fast-paced and hands-on role where you will focus on developing corporate partnerships, securing fundraising income, supporting campaigns and events, and helping strengthen the charity’s fundraising infrastructure for future growth.

Alongside longer-term relationship building, we are keen to see visible fundraising activity, momentum and new opportunities generated within the first year.

We are looking for someone who enjoys making things happen — someone who is proactive, delivery-focused and comfortable balancing strategic thinking with practical implementation within a growing charity environment.

As the charity continues to evolve, this role will also contribute towards shaping systems, processes, partnership approaches and supporter engagement activity from the ground up.

Key Responsibilities

Corporate Partnerships

• Identify and develop partnerships with corporate organisations aligned with the charity’s mission
• Secure financial support from businesses
• Develop partnership proposals and sponsorship opportunities
• Build and manage long-term relationships with corporate partners
• Develop employee engagement and fundraising opportunities with partners

Fundraising & Income Generation

• Support the development and delivery of fundraising campaigns and initiatives
• Help grow and diversify sustainable income streams

• Support the planning and delivery of fundraising events and activities

Trusts & Foundations

• Research and apply to relevant grant-making trusts and foundations
• Develop compelling funding applications and proposals
• Manage funder relationships and reporting requirements

Donor Engagement & CRM

• Support the implementation and development of the charity’s fundraising CRM system
• Maintain accurate records of fundraising activity, donors and partnerships
• Track fundraising activity and provide updates to leadership and trustees
• Support supporter engagement and donor stewardship activity

About You

We are looking for someone who is:

• Experienced in fundraising, corporate partnerships, sponsorship or business development
• A confident relationship builder with strong networking and communication skills
• Proactive, organised and delivery-focused
• Comfortable working independently within a growing and evolving charity
• Hands-on and willing to get involved operationally as well as strategically
• Able to manage multiple priorities and work at pace
• Commercially aware with a creative and solution-focused mindset
• Comfortable helping build and improve processes, systems and ways of working
• Passionate about making a genuine difference to children, schools and communities

Experience within the charity sector is welcome but not essential if you have strong partnership development or fundraising experience.

Most importantly, we are looking for someone with energy, initiative and the ability to turn ideas into action.

Why This Role Matters

MCKS Charitable Foundation currently supports around 180 schools across the UK through its school pantry programmes and breakfast clubs.

Through strategic partnerships, fundraising and community engagement, this role will help expand that support to 500+ schools nationally, helping thousands more children and families access essential food support through their schools.

This role will play a direct part in helping the charity strengthen its long-term sustainability, fundraising infrastructure and national reach.

In your first year, the focus will be on creating fundraising momentum, building a strong pipeline of opportunities and securing new income through corporate partnerships, trusts, fundraising initiatives and supporter engagement activity.

What Success Looks Like

Success in this role will involve bringing energy, momentum and proactive delivery into the charity’s fundraising activity from the outset.

You will be comfortable taking ownership of opportunities, building relationships, identifying new income streams and helping turn ideas into tangible fundraising activity and partnerships.

Alongside helping develop longer-term fundraising infrastructure and partnerships, we are looking for someone who enjoys making things happen and delivering visible progress within a growing charity environment.

This role would suit someone who enjoys building relationships, creating opportunities, working collaboratively and seeing the direct impact of their work on schools, children and families across the UK.

Why Join MCKS?

This is an opportunity to join a charity at a genuinely exciting stage of growth and help shape its future direction.

You will be joining at a pivotal time as MCKS invests in building its fundraising, partnership and impact infrastructure to support long-term national growth.

This role offers the opportunity to:

• Help shape one of the charity’s first dedicated fundraising and partnerships functions

• Build meaningful corporate and community relationships
• Work closely with senior leadership, trustees and the wider charity team
• Help influence systems, processes and future direction
• Make a visible and measurable impact across schools and communities nationwide

For the right person, this is an opportunity to build something meaningful from the ground up and be part of a charity with ambitious plans for growth and long-term impact.

This Fundraising Manager role is all about crafting compelling appeals and building meaningful supporter journeys, with the chance to help shape fundraising at a pivotal moment of change for Church Army.

Salary: £42,848
Contract: Permanent, full-time 37.5 hours per week, able to consider reduced hours
Location: Hybrid, either 2 days in Sheffield, or open to remote set-up if further afield
Benefits: 25 days leave plus bank holidays, 5% employer pension scheme and a range of other benefits including an Employee Assistance Programme, Death in Service and cycle-to-work

About Church Army

Church Army is a charity working across the UK and Ireland, sharing the Christian faith through words and action. They want everyone, everywhere to encounter God's love and be empowered to transform their communities, tackling social deprivation through partnership and collaboration.

Through a network of evangelists, they support marginalised and overlooked communities, including young people and those facing homelessness and addiction. They also extend their impact through a growing network of youth churches and mission hubs, creating welcoming, creative and accessible church communities where people can connect and belong.

About the role

Church Army is entering a new chapter - with fresh leadership, a developing strategy and a real opportunity for someone to help shape how fundraising and engagement looks going forward. The beauty of this reimagined role is that it's both strategic and hands-on, with chance to learn and develop, potentially adding new strings to your fundraising bow.

The role holds responsibility for individual giving, legacies and trusts fundraising, but we don't expect you to come with it all. You'll be given the time, space and tools to develop any skills and experience you don't currently have.

What we definitely need is someone with a strong foundation in Individual Giving - that means the ability to lead on campaigns and product development, as well as confidently manage pipeline planning.

You'll take creative control and responsibility for delivering effective multi-channel fundraising appeals, including key moments in the campaign calendar, such as the Christmas. Using insight, storytelling and data to deepen relationships and grow income, you'll develop meaningful supporter journeys that recruit, retain and inspire generosity. Working closely with colleagues across communications, operations and programmes, you'll help strengthen collaboration across teams, ensuring day-to-day activity and processes support the shared goal of bringing Church Army's mission to life.

You'll also line manage the Individual Giving Officer, providing guidance and support, as well as supervising and supporting the Trusts Consultant and Legacy Consultant. This could be a perfect development opportunity for someone looking to build or grow their leadership experience.

About you

• You're already an experienced Individual Giving fundraiser with a passion and talent for exceptional storytelling, able to write compelling copy that inspires people to take action.
• You can demonstrate previous experience managing campaigns or projects end-to-end and feel confident working with data and insight to optimise results.
• You either already see yourself as a leader or have ambition to be one, with the potential and capability to lead by example and provide guidance and mentorships to others.

We really want to emphasise that you don't need to tick all the boxes to be considered, but you do need to be motivated to broaden your skillset and experience, with natural curiosity and a solutions-focused way of being.

Alignment with Church Army's Christian mission and feeling comfortable working in a faith-based environment where prayer and shared values are part of daily life is important. This role has an occupational requirement for the postholder to be a practising Christian.

How to Apply

If this sparks your imagination and interest, then we'd love to hear from you. Please send a copy of your profile or CV to Amelia Lee at Charity People as the first step and she'll be in touch with further details it your experience matches what we've asked for.

Deadline: 9am on Wednesday 17^th June
