About The Felix Project
The Felix Project is London's biggest food redistribution charity and the largest end-to-end food redistribution charity in Europe.
Our vision is a London where no one goes hungry and good food is never wasted.
We rescue surplus food from businesses, supermarkets, restaurants and farms. This food is nutritious, in-date, and safe and includes a high proportion of fresh vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. If we did not rescue this food, it would be at risk of going to waste. Instead, we deliver it free of charge to London charities, schools, food banks, COVID food hubs and other organisations serving people in need. Our food is a vital lifeline for children and families, people on low incomes, people who have lost their jobs, the homeless, refugees, domestic abuse survivors, the elderly and keyworkers.
We are a very ambitious and dynamic young charity and we haven’t stopped growing since we were founded in 2016 in memory of Felix Byam Shaw, by his father, entrepreneur Justin Byam Shaw. We recently ran a very high-profile media campaign with the Evening Standard and Independent, raising £10million to feed London. We have celebrity endorsement from Reece James, Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Jack Whitehall, Stephen Fry, James May and many others.
Last year we delivered enough food for 21.1 million meals to help people in need. We have continuing major growth plans for the next 4 years, with a target of delivering enough food for 100 million meals by 2024. Because nearly all the food we receive is donated by the food industry and volunteers, every £1 of expenditure redistributes £10 worth of food.

About The Royal British Legion

Careers in Fundraising

Across the country, in every city and on every street, the Legion is there to support our Armed Forces community. As the largest charity of our kind, we have 235,000 members, 60,000 volunteers and a network of partners all helping us give support wherever and whenever it's needed.

With over 200 employees, our Fundraising teams form an important part of this pack. Their passion and collaboration bring in millions of pounds every year. Money that goes on to improve and change the lives of this community.

It's this mission, this scale, this challenge and the values we all live by, that makes the Legion such a fulfilling place to thrive.

As a directorate we commit to ensuring our supporters feel valued, and driven to deliver fundraising that is effective, agile and sector leading. We do this by putting supporters at the heart of everything we do, and by embedding a learning culture in our teams where process improvement and innovation are embraced and celebrated.

So, if you want to give your days meaning. To put your passion into a role with real impact. To support people and be supported yourself. In an inclusive team that faces every challenge together. Whatever your interests and ambitions, we think you’ll find a role here that works for you, with career opportunities right across the UK.

The Role

With the demands for our welfare services rising, our corporate partnerships are more important than ever. During the pandemic, our corporate partners have provided vital funding, helped us reach new audiences and raise awareness of the challenges faced by veterans and their families. This year, our partners join with us to mark the Legion’s century of support for the Armed Forces community. With lots of exciting activities planned for our centenary, our partnerships will be exceptionally busy, so we need a talented and enthusiastic corporate fundraiser to help us bring these plans to life.

With a tailored and creative approach, the Legion’s Corporate Partnerships team develops mutually beneficial relationships with some of the UK’s most successful companies. Through a growing portfolio of partnerships, we secure a huge range of benefits for the Armed Forces community, whilst delivering tangible commercial results for our business partners.

As Corporate Partnerships Officer, you will need to balance three key priorities: supporting an account manager with the daily delivery of a number of major partnerships; helping the wider team with its administrative tasks and working on critical collaborative projects; and taking on direct management responsibility for one or more of our mid value partnerships.

You will need to have an eye for detail and an organised approach to deal effectively with complex organisations. You should have excellent communication skills and be able to build strong relationships with partners and colleagues alike, and be keen to learn from them. You should be motivated and self-sufficient, though equally committed to working collaboratively as part of a busy team.

Please note this role is based at our London office, which is located at Haig House, 199 Borough High Street, London SE1 1AA. Currently, we are still largely from home, and meeting in person around once or twice every two weeks. A more substantial return to office working is planned for September, with a mixture of homeworking and office meetings the most likely routine.

As an inclusive employer, we welcome conversations on flexible working and any reasonable adjustments that may be required.

Diversity Statement

We believe that the compassion, understanding and service we show each, and every individual customer should be reflected in the way we all support, respect and include every individual who works with us.

It’s because of this that we have strived hard to create a One Legion culture that we can all feel part of and succeed in. It’s why we make sure that you have the opportunities you need to learn and develop. It’s why we’re invested in making RBL a truly inclusive place to work, where everyone can be themselves. It’s why you’re welcome, whoever you might be.

It’s why we welcome applications from people with diverse backgrounds and experiences.
