Head of partnership jobs

Please visit our webiste for the job descirption and person specification!

UCCF is at a significant and exciting moment. Eighteen months into Matt's leadership as CEO, we are clearer than ever about our mission: Making disciples of Jesus Christ in the student world. We are also clearer about the strategic priorities that will enable that mission to bear fruit in the years ahead: Forming CU leaders, Resourcing CU students, and growing the gospel partnerships that make this ministry possible.

Advertised as Head of Fundraising, this is much more than a fundraising post. Internally, it is the senior leadership role for UCCF’s Partnerships Team and is referred to as the Head of Partnerships. That language is deliberate. We do not want to think of fundraising as a merely transactional activity, but as a relational, prayerful and theological expression of gospel partnership.

Each year hundreds of churches and trusts and thousands of individuals join with us in the work God is doing among students: praying, giving, advocating, encouraging and sharing in the joy of gospel fruitfulness.

The person appointed will help lead UCCF into this next chapter and will shape how we tell the story of student mission; how we invite others to partner with us; how we steward relationships well, building sustainable prayerful and financial support for long-term ministry.

You will lead and build a committed team, work closely with senior leaders and bring strategic clarity, relational warmth, theological conviction and ambitious confidence to one of UCCF’s most important areas of work.

If you are a senior fundraiser, marketing or partnerships leader who loves the gospel, understands evangelical culture, and wants to help a national movement grow deeper, stronger and more fruitful partnerships as together we reach the >2.5 million students in Britain, then we’d love to hear from you. This is an opportunity to build, to lead, to innovate and to serve, so together we might play our part in making disciples of Jesus Christ in Britain.

The key details

• Salary: £43,781 - £51,486 (depending on experience)
• Hours: Full-time of 37.5 hours per week, or part-time considered (minimum of 0.8FTE)
• Holiday: 30 days holiday per year, plus 8 public holidays
• Location: Hybrid working from our Oxford office
• Interview date: Tuesday 28 July 2026, in Oxford
• Start date: As soon as possible, open to negotiation for the right candidate

This role offers a unique opportunity to make this role your own and take the charity to the next level, with the full support of a dedicated, experienced team.

The successful candidate will ensure that the charity remains resilient and able to deliver on its commitment to grow and evolve to meet the needs of the people we serve.

The role is a mix of operational activity, day to day management and strategic thinking; with the continuous building and nurturing of external relationships with our NHS, public sector and not-for-profit stakeholders.

Working alongside a committed trustee board, skilled staff and volunteers, you will bring drive, experience and passion to the team. You’ll get terrific support from the outgoing postholder as needed, with the space to act and bring your own ideas to the forefront.

The role focuses on building and maintaining strong relationships with partner organisations, supporting firms throughout their participation in the Suicide Prevention Action Lab (SPAL) programme, and ensuring they remain motivated, accountable, and on track to deliver their commitments.

We’re bringing together six representatives from financial services firms to explore ways to improve support for customers experiencing suicidality. The Partnerships Officer will play a key role in supporting the delivery of the SPAL, working closely with participating firms to assist them in developing, testing, and implementing practical changes to help prevent suicidality. 

The Partnerships Officer will manage relationships with multiple firms simultaneously, each at a different stage in their journey to testing and embedding new and improved approaches to identifying and supporting customers experiencing or at risk of suicidality. Success in the role requires excellent organisation, persistence, and relationship management skills, alongside the ability to understand the challenges and competing demands faced by participating firms and to support them in maintaining momentum and delivering results.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to develop their skills in partnership management, stakeholder engagement and influencing change within organisations. The role offers significant autonomy and responsibility, with opportunities to build expertise, lead stakeholder relationships, and contribute directly to the SPAL’s growth and impact.

While the role will predominantly focus on the SPAL, the postholder will also contribute to the continued development of the wider Action Labs research-to-impact offer.

Key tasks in the role will include:

• Acting as the primary day-to-day contact for participating firms, building strong and productive relationships throughout their involvement in the SPAL. Coordinating and supporting consultancy and coaching meetings with participating firms.
• Developing and maintaining a strong working knowledge of emerging Action Lab research insights. Applying research insights in discussions with firms, supporting them in translating evidence into new or improved tools, processes and communications.
• Supporting a portfolio of firm representatives simultaneously, ensuring each remains engaged, motivated and on track to deliver against agreed objectives and milestones.
• Developing a strong understanding of participating firms' priorities, pressures and operational realities, using this insight to provide effective support.
• Building and maintaining relationships with external stakeholders beyond participating firms, and developing strong internal relationships, proactively sharing insights and intelligence from Action Labs to maximise our organisational impact.
• Identifying opportunities to raise the profile of the Action Lab research-to-impact model, including relevant conferences, speaking opportunities and awards.
