We understand that maximising opportunity is a business imperative. We also know that people living with cancer want to get as much as possible out of life. And corporate partnerships are pivotal in ensuring we achieve our ambition to be there for each and every one of them.

To that end, we are looking for someone to lead a partnership management team in maximising income generation and the duration of existing Macmillan partnerships.

Our success will be built on your success in working closely with our corporate partners to increase the funding and support they give. So it's vital that your substantial track record in fundraising and both team and account management shows the strength and development of skills that we need. Naturally, that includes the personal presence and strong social skills to influence at the most senior level of large national companies and to engage with any audience - whether large or small groups or individual VIPs.

But you don't only apply those skills in an outward-facing capacity. Self-motivated and politely persistent, you have the ability to enthuse others, leading by example to encourage innovation and team-working and supporting staff in all their fundraising activities.

We commit to actively developing you in your career. You will also be eligible for several benefits which include private medical insurance, life assurance, pension, generous leave, and interest free loans for season tickets and gym membership.
