About the role:
This is a hands-on role for someone who loves opening doors, building momentum and turning interest into long-term support.

From first approach to signed agreement, you’ll play a key role in bringing businesses on board and inspiring them to stand alongside our work.
You’ll split your time between winning new partnerships and deepening existing ones.

You’ll track activity and performance through our CRM, using data and insight to strengthen relationships and retention. While your focus is corporate partnerships, you’ll work closely with colleagues across the organisation to support a joined-up, ambitious approach to income generation. If you’re proactive, curious and ready to make your mark, this role offers the chance to grow fast and make a visible difference at Single Homeless Project (SHP).
About you:
- You’re genuinely interested in why businesses choose to support charities and enjoy turning that curiosity into strong, meaningful partnerships.
- You’re confident building relationships, opening conversations and keeping partners engaged, whether you’re developing something new or growing what’s already there.
- You’re comfortable working towards targets and enjoy the sense of progress that comes from moving ideas into action.
- You can bring a story to life, creating and delivering pitches or presentations that connect with people and inspire them to get involved.
- You’re organised and proactive, happy using (or quickly learning) a CRM to keep things running smoothly and spot opportunities to do even better.
About us:
We’re London’s leading homelessness charity – and we get things done.
In a city where hundreds are forced into homelessness every day, our work has never been more needed or more challenging. And we’re not shying away. We’re rolling up our sleeves to make change and helping over 10,000 Londoners every year. We prevent homelessness, provide safe places to live and give people the opportunity to rebuild their lives and transform their futures. And we never give up.
We’re here for Londoners wherever they are on their journey. We start with trust, building relationships that help people feel safe, supported, and ready to move forward. Every day, we put people first in everything we do, challenging injustice and barriers that keep people from the safety, stability and opportunity they deserve. We stand alongside people as they rebuild and shape a future that feels their own.
Joining Single Homeless Project means joining a team that’s bold, compassionate and determined to do better for the people we support and for each other. You’ll work alongside colleagues with lived experience, in a space that’s trans-inclusive, disability-friendly, and actively striving to be anti-oppressive and equitable.
We’re not perfect, but we’re real. We listen. We learn. And we push forward, together. Because this isn’t just a job. It’s a chance to lead with empathy, spark change, and help build a London where no one is left behind.
