About Scotland's Charity Air Ambulance
Scotland’s Charity Air Ambulance (SCAA) exists so nobody in Scotland suffers or dies because medical help cannot get there in time. People can get sick or have accidents anywhere and anytime. But in Scotland there are places where urgent medical help cannot reach people. Or help gets there too late. And when lives are at risk every minute matters. As a charity we rely on donations from the Scottish public, companies and communities to ensure that urgent medical help gets to the patient when it is needed, wherever they are and at whatever time of day.

The Role

As part of an ongoing strategy of development, SCAA are looking for a highly motivated, focussed and committed individual to support the growth of our corporate partnerships programme. Working closely with the Partnerships Manager, you’ll play a key role in identifying, securing and developing partnerships that generate sustainable income and create meaningful impact for our charity.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys building relationships, spotting opportunities and delivering exceptional donor experiences.

The Partnerships Fundraiser will support on the securing of new partnerships and take the lead on stewarding our corporate partner portfolio. They will join a dynamic team who are passionate about supporting our corporate partners, demonstrating the contribution they make to our critical service through their donations of time and money.

This role will be based either in Perth, at Scone Airport, or at our Aberdeen base, at Aberdeen Airport. SCAA supports flexible and hybrid working arrangements—our current approach typically includes two office days per week for those working on a hybrid basis. The usual hours of work will be Monday—Friday, 9am—5pm but it should be noted that this role will require the successful candidate to occasionally work at weekends and during the evenings. This role will also require the successful candidate to travel regularly to partner locations within Scotland.
