Venture Trust believes no one should be left behind because they are struggling with adversity, inequality or vulnerability. That is why they are supporting people to gain the life skills, stability and confidence needed to reach their potential. At Venture Trust, they work to make a positive life possible for some of Scotland’s most vulnerable people across community justice, employability and wellbeing.

They support people in their local community and in the Scottish outdoors with learning and development. The outdoors offers an inherent challenge for individuals to reflect on beliefs, attitudes, and behaviours. With time and space away from influences at home, individuals can unlock skills and learn new, more positive, ways of approaching situations. At any stage in life, people can struggle. That is why Venture Trust focuses on the path to a positive future, without forgetting what led people to them. Many people they work with are surviving outside mainstream support, are unemployed, or they may have never been in employment. Most have faced trauma.

Venture Trust has the vision that everyone, irrespective of their past, can achieve their potential for a healthy, happy and fulfilling life. Their values underpin everything they do: with courage, care, curiosity and collaboration they help men and women across Scotland gain the life skills, stability and confidence needed to reach their potential and to live their best lives.

As Corporate Partnerships Manager, Venture Trust is looking for someone who is passionate and driven, creative and innovative, and loves to collaborate! Sitting within the ‘External Relations’ team, we need someone with natural fundraising skills who has the confidence to build creative partnerships with organisations, brands and corporate sponsors that have a synergistic fit with the mission of Venture Trust. You do not need to have worked with a charity before in order to join this incredible team. Those with transferable skills from sales, marketing and business development backgrounds are welcome; however knowledge of the third sector and how your skills can transfer is key. This role offers creative opportunities for you to build partnerships the way you want to! We are looking for someone who embraces creating new business relationships, enjoys the challenge of reaching and smashing targets and loves to think outside the box. If you have what we are looking for and the drive and enthusiasm to join Venture Trust, then please contact us to discuss this role further.

A key benefit of working with Venture Trust is their drive to find the right person for the right role and they know being flexible in process, principle and ways of working are all key! In this position, there is significant opportunity for you to create your role your way, expanding on current relationships and building new ones that will help Venture Trust support even more people across Scotland who need their help. This role is primarily remote working, but does include in-office work at the organisations headquarters in Edinburgh two days per week. The nature of this role means that there will be frequent travel to the head office and to interact with potential clients, so making how and where you work suitable for successful candidates is important to the organisation.

You are advised to get in touch well in advance of the closing date to give us time to consider your application and pre-interview the strongest applicants.

Who we are

UK Youth is a leading charity that exists to ensure all young people are equipped to thrive and empowered to contribute at every stage of their lives. We work with others to ensure that the youth sector is strengthened, supported and that provision is youth-led, evidence-informed and delivers high-quality outcomes.

UK Youth plays a unique role in addressing; the lack of investment in the youth sector, the lack of cross-sector understanding in how youth work makes a difference and the limited opportunities to embed effective solutions. These factors lead to mass inequality of access to youth services for young people. To find more about us and how we make an impact, please visit UK Youth Website.
