About the role
The Head of Income Generation is a new and important leadership role within Stonewall Housing, created to grow and diversify our voluntary income and support the next stage of our development as a nationwide LGBTQ+ housing and homelessness charity.
Reporting to the Director of Development, you will lead the development and delivery of ambitious income generation plans, with a particular focus on significantly growing income from corporate giving and partnerships.
You will build on Stonewall Housing’s existing corporate relationships while identifying and securing new opportunities across the UK. This will include strategic and commercial partnerships, Charity of the Year relationships, corporate donations, corporate foundations, employee fundraising, sponsorship, cause-related marketing and other opportunities for businesses and their employees to support our work.
You will develop compelling partnership propositions, lead applications and pitches, build relationships with senior decision-makers and create opportunities that deliver sustainable income alongside wider value for Stonewall Housing and the LGBTQ+ communities we support.

Who are we?
Art Fund is the national fundraising charity for art. With over 142,000 members, we are leading the way in pioneering support for an inclusive and welcoming museum and gallery sector across the UK.
We work closely with a network of over 1000 museums and respond to their needs and aspirations.

This role is really plugged in to what's happening in museums and galleries around the UK, and our work to support them.

You'll also tell the story of our charitable purpose, through fundraising campaigns, our funding programmes, and high-profile events like Museum of the Year.
All this ladders up to build our brand - which helps us connect more people with great art and culture, and to support more museums and galleries.

- Generous Annual leave – 25 days annual leave and bank holidays, with additional non-contractual office closure dates at Christmas.
- Free National Art Pass (NAP) – for yourself and another person of your choice.
- Free Entry to Exhibitions
- Life Assurance – cover for up to three times your basic salary.
- Season Ticket Loan
- Pensions – Eligible employees are enrolled into the scheme with the exception of those who have contracts of three months or less.
