Then join Shelter as a Corporate Partnership Executive and you could soon be playing the leading role on a range of employee fundraising programmes.

A home is a fundamental human need, as essential as education or healthcare. Yet millions of people across Britain struggle on a daily basis with homelessness, bad housing conditions, soaring rents, discrimination and the threat of eviction. So, we are striving for change with individuals, in communities, across society and leading the way to a safe home. We need ambitious, best-in-class individuals who are passionate about our cause to join us at this exciting time. This is your chance to play a part in the fundamental change we are striving to achieve.

With around 100 staff and an income target of £42 million for 2019/20, our Income Generation Directorate has ambitious plans for growth in response to the national housing emergency over the coming years. The Corporate Partnerships Team is split into two teams: New Partnerships, which is responsible for generating income by securing new partnerships through a range of corporate fundraising mechanics and Partnership Management, whose role it is to manage and develop long term corporate partnerships. These particular roles sit in the latter.

About the Role
As well as having your own portfolio of designated corporate partnerships, we’ll count on you to support the team in managing major partnerships and projects to agreed targets and objectives. Along the way, you’ll work closely with external stakeholders, as well as teams from across Shelter, including Marketing, Media, Creative, Digital, Finance and Services. Accordingly, you’ll need to network frequently and develop strong working relationships at all levels. Reporting on income from your partners, evaluating ongoing activities, updating our database (Raiser’s Edge) and ensuring accurate and up-to-date records are kept – all are aspects of this challenging role where we’ll give you responsibility for projects from the get-go. And, because decisions are often made collaboratively, rather than top-down, you’ll get an active say in how things can be improved too.

About you
Committed to achieving team targets, driving opportunities and developing clear, efficient plans to achieve your goals, you’re used to establishing priorities and managing multiple activities simultaneously. What’s more, you know how to apply commercial and financial principles to improve business performance, while your sound project management skills will ensure the delivery and growth of your partnerships. The ability to monitor performance and progress against agreed objectives and take action to ensure deadlines and outcomes are achieved is important too, as is a flair for managing time and resources effectively. Proactive, creative and keen to learn, you have excellent interpersonal, listening and reporting skills and are great at engaging and winning people over and conveying complex ideas succinctly and persuasively.

Benefits
We offer a wide range of benefits, including 30 days of annual leave, enhanced family friendly policies, pension and interest free travel loans. Our employees also have access to a tenancy deposit loan, payroll giving, cycle to work scheme and an employee assistance programme.

Shelter helps millions of people every year struggling with bad housing or homelessness through our advice, support and legal services. And we campaign to make sure that, one day, no one will have to turn to us for help. We’re here so no one has to fight bad housing or homelessness on their own.
