Are you an experienced fundraising leader ready to help shape the future of high-value giving?

The MND Association is at the forefront of the fight against motor neurone disease, and we're looking for an exceptional leader to join our team. As Head of High Value Partnerships, you will shape our high-value fundraising strategy, lead a talented team, and drive significant income growth across corporate partnerships, major donors, and trusts and foundations. This is a pivotal opportunity to secure transformational support that funds vital research and services for people living with and affected by MND.

As Head of High Value Partnerships, you will lead a talented team to deliver ambitious income targets and build strong, long-term relationships. You will bring a confident, collaborative approach and a proven track record of growing income.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and implement a high-value partnerships strategy across corporates, major donors and trusts
  • Lead a proactive acquisition approach and drive new business activity and secure six- and seven-figure partnerships and donations
  • Build and maintain a strong, diverse pipeline of high-value prospects
  • Work with teams across the organisation to develop compelling funding proposals
  • Lead and support your team in managing donor and partner relationships
  • Personally manage a portfolio of key relationships

  • Able to build and sustain trusted relationships with a wide range of stakeholders
  • Strategic thinker with excellent financial and analytical skills
  • Skilled in written and verbal communication, including influencing and presenting
  • Comfortable managing change and identifying opportunities for growth
  • Confident managing budgets and using fundraising software and CRM systems
  • Committed to the MND Association's purpose and values

About Us:

Our vision is a world free from MND. Our mission is to improve care and support for people with MND, their families and carers. We fund and promote research that leads to new understanding and treatments and brings us closer to a cure for MND. The Association also campaigns and raises awareness so the needs of people with MND, and everyone who cares for them, are recognised, and addressed by wider society.

What We Offer:

  • 28 days holiday, increasing to 33 days after 5 years, plus Bank Holidays.
  • Access to UK Healthcare, including dental, eyecare, health screenings, and therapies.
  • 24/7 GP access via phone and video.
  • Life assurance and confidential counselling helplines.
  • Salary sacrifice schemes (Cycle to Work, Buy/Sell Annual Leave).
  • Access to Benefit Hub for discounts on everyday shopping.
  • Enhanced pension scheme.
  • Opportunities for training and personal development.
  • Hybrid working.

We are committed to equality, diversity, and inclusivity. We work to remove barriers for everyone affected by MND, employees, volunteers, and stakeholders.
