Save the Children UK has an exciting opportunity for a collaborative and dedicated individual to join us as our Regional Corporate Executive, where you will support the Regional Fundraising & Engagement team in maximising income and driving engagement through impactful partnerships.

 Please note: This is a homebased role but may require UK-Wide travel of around 2-4 days per month for networking opportunities, team and partner meetings.

About Us

Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure children's unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.

About the Role

As Regional Corporate Executive, you will play a key role in driving income and engagement from regional corporate supporters. You'll manage your own portfolio of partnerships, conduct research to identify new opportunities, and triage and respond to partnership enquiries, supporting the wider Regional Corporate team to deliver over £1 million in income annually. 

In this role, you will:

• Research and identify potential corporate partners, building targeted lists of prospects aligned with strategic goals.

• Manage and develop a personal portfolio of partnerships and prospects, delivering exceptional stewardship and maximising income. 

• Oversee the team's inbox, triaging and managing incoming corporate partnership enquiries.

• Work closely with colleagues across the organisation to coordinate and maximise fundraising opportunities.

• Ensure legal, donation acceptance and other guidelines adhered to and that partnerships align with Save the Children's principles. 

• Contribute to departmental income reporting, budgeting and forecasting. 

About You

To be successful, it is important that you have:

• Experience managing supporter relationships, preferably within a corporate fundraising or partnerships environment.

• Strong research and data analysis skills with a proactive approach to identifying new business opportunities.

• A good understanding of corporate fundraising practices, including relevant rules and regulations.

• Experience using CRM systems, ideally Salesforce, to manage donor / partner data.

• Exceptional relationship management skills, with a commercial mindset and the ability to build meaningful partnerships.

• A collaborative and open approach to teamwork, willing to support broader team objectives.

• Commitment to Save the Children's vision, mission and values.

What we offer you:

Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.

We focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.

We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day. You can read more about our benefits here.

To learn more about the position, please review the Job Description in the attached Documents

Please note: To avoid disappointment, you are advised to submit your application as soon as possible as we reserve the right to close the vacancy early if a high volume of applications are received. This is to ensure that we can manage application levels whilst maintaining a positive candidate experience. Unfortunately once a vacancy has closed, we are unable to consider further applications.

Ways of Working:

 Please note: This is a homebased role but may require UK-Wide travel of around 2-4 days per month for networking opportunities, team and partner meetings.

Flexible Working - We are happy to discuss flexible working options at interview.

Commitment to Diversity & Inclusion: 

Save the Children UK believes in a world that is fair, inclusive and equitable where all children have the opportunity to change their world. We apply this to our workforce and we are committed to developing and supporting a diverse, equitable, and inclusive organisation where all employees have a sense of belonging and feel that they can be "Free to Be Me". We are not looking for just one type of person - we want to recruit people who can add fresh perspectives, innovative ideas or challenge that disrupts the risk of group think. 

We are especially interested in people whose childhood experiences - of life on a low income, of migration, of being in a racialised community, of the care system, of being LGBT+ or in an LGBT+ family or living with (or with someone with) a disability - help us to see things we might otherwise miss. Whatever your story is we want to hear it because we know that different voices, ideas, perspectives and knowledge, working together will enable us to better the lives of children around the world. This is the reason why we are all here.
