We are looking for a Senior New Business Manager to lead our new business function as we grow our corporate partnerships programme. This is a high-impact and visible role at the heart of our fundraising strategy. It is ideal for someone who combines creativity and commercial flair with a strong understanding of the charity sector.

You will be responsible for:

• Managing and growing a robust new business pipeline, identifying, researching, and securing high-value corporate prospects

• Leading and motivating a talented team of three, providing guidance, development, and clear strategic direction

• Creating compelling, high-level partnership propositions that resonate with business leaders and align with our mission

• Working closely with the Corporate Account Management team to ensure a seamless journey from prospect to partner

• Collaborating with senior internal stakeholders to unlock opportunities and shape offers with cross-organisational support

• Representing the charity with confidence and credibility when engaging senior corporate decision-makers

About you

You will bring:

• Proven experience of winning new corporate partnerships, ideally in the charity sector (though we also welcome broader income generation or senior fundraising experience)

• A strong understanding of the charity sector and what makes strategic partnerships impactful and sustainable

• Excellent relationship-building skills, both externally with business leaders and internally with senior stakeholders

• Experience of developing high-value, innovative partnership propositions

• A natural leadership style that brings out the best in others and fosters a high-performing, supportive team culture

Why join Centrepoint?

In return for your efforts you’ll receive a competitive salary, excellent training and development, and a host of staff benefits including:

• 25 days of annual leave per year, rising by one day per year to a maximum of 27 days

• Healthcare cash plan (covering a wide range of medical treatment including Dental, Optical, Complementary and Alternative therapies)

• Private Medical Insurance

• Income Protection

• Employer pension contributions of 5%

• Access to Cycle 2 Work loan scheme

• An interest-free travel loan

Centrepoint operates a hybrid working model. The requirement is a minimum of 50% of your working week. For most full-time colleagues, this means attending the office for five days over a two-week period (e.g., two days one week and three days the next). For colleagues on different contracts (including part-time or compressed contracts) this will be adjusted accordingly.

At Centrepoint we challenge the discrimination within society that contributes to youth homelessness, and we are just as committed to fairness and equality within Centrepoint itself. We are passionate about ensuring all of our colleagues are made to feel included in the work we do and that we value the rich diversity within the organisation.

We are an equal opportunities employer and we welcome applications regardless of sex, gender, race, age, belief in any religion and none, gender identity, ethnic origin, class, sexuality, nationality, appearance, unrelated criminal activities, disability, responsibility for dependents, part time or shift workers, being HIV positive or living with AIDS, lived experience of homelessness or using young people’s services and any other matter which causes a person to be treated with injustice.

Centrepoint’s policy is to recruit, employ and promote people on the basis of their suitability for the work to be performed, and to this end, our aim is to ensure that all applicants, employees and volunteers receive equal treatment.
