When You Wish Upon a Star is seeking an ambitious and relationship-led Head of Corporate Partnerships to establish and grow its corporate income stream, helping to grant more life-changing wishes for children living with life-threatening or terminal illnesses.

For over 35 years, When You Wish Upon a Star has been creating carefully tailored wishes that bring joy, hope and unforgettable memories to children and their families during some of the most difficult times in their lives. From magical trips to Lapland, to meeting a favourite celebrity or experiencing a once-in-a-lifetime adventure, every wish is designed to create moments of happiness, connection and togetherness that last far beyond the experience itself.

Following its 35th anniversary, the charity is entering an ambitious new phase of growth, with a clear focus on reaching more children across the UK and increasing the impact of its wish-granting work. Corporate partnerships play a vital role in enabling this ambition, providing the sustainable income needed to deliver more wishes when families need them most.

This is a newly created role with significant scope to shape and build the corporate partnerships function from the ground up. The postholder will take ownership of strategy, pipeline development and partner engagement, helping to define how this income stream develops and grows in the future.

Working closely with the Head of Income Generation and CEO, the Head of Corporate Partnerships will develop and deliver a clear and focused partnerships strategy, identify and secure high-value and multi-year corporate partnerships, and build strong relationships with organisations that share the charity’s commitment to creating meaningful impact for children and families.

The role requires a blend of creativity, commercial thinking and relationship-building expertise to design compelling partnership opportunities that are both emotionally engaging and strategically robust. The successful candidate will be confident engaging senior corporate stakeholders, opening new networks, and converting opportunities into long-term, sustainable support.

This is a rare opportunity to help build a function from an early stage within a much-loved charity, directly contributing to the number of wishes that can be granted and ensuring more children experience moments of joy, comfort and hope when they need them most.
