ABOUT CORPORATE PERFORMANCE
A growing number of companies and financial institutions are seeking to mitigate their impacts on nature. But many have made commitments that are not being met, and others are failing to take any action at all. We hold the most exposed companies and financial institutions to account through our Forest 500 project, by assessing their policies and performance.
With our suite of Deforestation-free Finance Guidance and a forthcoming new tool, DEFT Pathway, we provide tools and data for financial institutions and investors to support effective engagement with high-risk companies.

Hybrid working with regular travel to our London Bridge Office
It’s an incredibly exciting time within partnerships at Prostate Cancer UK. In line with the charity’s ambitious 10-year fundraising strategy, partnerships are a core component in raising vital funds and awareness to help men navigate the UK’s most common cancer. With nationally recognised, award-winning partnerships as our platform, matched with a record-high brand sentiment rating, a highly prominent cause and a marketplace looking for long-term strategic partnerships, we are building the team infrastructure to maximise our strong position through the launch of two developed functions – Account Development and Business Development.
What the job involves
This is a senior role in our Partnerships team, heading up our newly formed Account Development function and playing a key part in transforming how we grow income from existing corporate partnerships.
You’ll take ownership of a portfolio of high‑value, complex partnerships, many of which are moving from lower‑value arrangements into higher impact, mutually beneficial multi‑year partnerships as part of our longer‑term growth strategy. This is not a “steady state” account management role – it’s about developing, expanding and unlocking untapped potential in relationships.
In practice, this means you’ll:
- Lead the delivery and growth of a portfolio of major corporate partnerships, ensuring campaigns are well‑executed and partnerships are delivering real value, income and impact.
- Drive partner extensions, expansions and upsell opportunities, turning successful partnerships into longer‑term, purpose‑driven collaborations.
- Shift relationships from transactional management to strategic account development, spotting opportunities, building networks and proactively shaping future activity.
- Work closely with senior stakeholders internally and externally, ensuring partner priorities align with Prostate Cancer UK’s mission, brand and strategic goals.
- Lead, support and develop a team of Account Development specialists, embedding a confident, insight‑led and high‑performance culture.
- Play an active role in shaping how we go to market, helping define what great account development looks like as we evolve our partnerships approach.
You’ll be joining at a time of significant ambition and change, with the opportunity to shape a function, influence strategy and help Prostate Cancer UK build fewer, bigger, higher impact partnerships.
What we want from you
We’re looking for someone who thrives in complex, high‑value partnerships and enjoys turning good relationships into outstanding, long‑term collaborations. The ideal candidate will bring a blend of commercial confidence, strategic thinking and strong people leadership.
You’re likely to be someone who:
- Has substantial experience developing and growing high‑value corporate or brand partnerships, including managing complex accounts and multi‑stakeholder relationships.
- Is confident moving partnerships from “managed” to “developed” – spotting opportunities, shaping propositions and driving financial growth.
- Brings strong commercial and strategic insight, potentially from a commercial, agency or charity background, and understands how purpose and brand can work powerfully together.
- Has experience leading and developing others, with a clear, supportive leadership & management style and the ability to set direction and raise performance.
- Is proactive, confident and solution‑focused, comfortable taking ownership and making decisions in a fast‑moving environment.
- Enjoys building trusted relationships, influencing at senior levels and representing the organisation with credibility and integrity.
- Is motivated by impact as much as income and wants to contribute to a charity with bold ambitions and a clear social purpose.
This role will suit someone who likes stretch, autonomy and responsibility, and who wants to help shape how a major charity works with its most important partners.
Why work with us?
Every man needs to know about the most common cancer in men – prostate cancer. It’s a real and present danger that takes over 12,000 of our dads, grandads, brothers and friends each year.
Prostate Cancer UK is the largest men’s health charity in the UK. We have a simple ambition – to stop prostate cancer damaging lives. We invest millions in research to revolutionise testing, treatment and care. We’re blazing a trail to a screening programme that could save thousands of lives with regular, accurate tests for all men at risk. And we work tirelessly to spread the word about risk and offer specialist support to people living with the disease.
Work with us and you’ll see your efforts pay off as we give men and their families the power to navigate prostate cancer.
Our commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion
At Prostate Cancer UK we’re committed to righting health inequalities across the UK, starting with those faced by Black men. This includes ground-breaking research into Black men's risk and working with communities directly to overcome barriers to the diagnosis and treatment of prostate cancer. To make this happen, we're dedicated to being an inclusive, proactive organisation, as we strive to be Allies to Black communities. We’ll achieve this by advocating and working alongside those communities to promote change. We're also working to be Allies to each other, not only protected groups. In 2024, we launched our New Allyship Training Programme. All colleagues at Prostate Cancer UK will be trained to act and identify as an Ally.
We've also signed Business in the Communities Race at Work Charter, as a dedication to our Black health equity work and wider EDI priorities. As a signatory, we're responsible and accountable for driving positive change.
How and where we work
Colleagues attend the office at least four days per month (pro rata for part-time colleagues) to collaborate, build relationships, and support projects and decision-making. You can choose where to work the rest of the time. Travel to the office is a commute, so we pay our own travel costs.
Additional in-person attendance will be required during your first few months for induction and training, to support you to learn the role and get to know colleagues.
We trust colleagues to work flexibly while balancing personal commitments with the needs of the charity, and we are committed to making reasonable adjustments for colleagues with a disability, neurodiversity, or a long-term physical or mental health condition.
