Salary: £29,900 – 34,500 (dependent on experience)
Reporting to: Partnerships & Marketing Manager
Make a big impact with a dynamic charity transforming young people’s lives in London.
Construction Youth Trust is an ambitious and innovative charity whose mission to inspire and enable young people to overcome barriers and achieve their full career potential. Social mobility is at the heart of our work, and we prioritise working with young people from low-income backgrounds and those who are facing significant barriers to employment.
We help young people recognise their potential, develop their confidence and skills and discover career opportunities never previously presented to them. Through our long-standing partnerships with employers in the built environment sector (over 200+ across London), we connect hundreds of young people each year to relatable role models, world of work experiences and ultimately rewarding jobs and apprenticeships. The built environment is at the forefront of the drive towards achieving net zero and future economic growth, offering young people substantial opportunity for career progression.
We are seeking a highly organised, persuasive, and confident communicator with excellent interpersonal skills and a proven track record of building productive relationships with funders. Comfortable working at pace, you will thrive in a busy environment and play a key role in our successful Partnerships team - managing five-figure corporate accounts, identifying and developing new corporate partnerships, and delivering high-quality marketing. All activity will be focused on achieving our ambitious corporate fundraising targets.
What will I be doing?
· Delivering high-quality relationship management and stewardship, including writing reports and organising “seeing is believing” events that give funders the opportunity to experience the impact of our work with young people first-hand.
· Preparing compelling applications for potential corporate partners, including presenting to senior stakeholders where required.
· Creating and deliver tailored marketing plans for key accounts, including inspiring social media posts and case studies, and bringing our work to life by capturing high-quality photos and videos of CYT in action.
· Supporting the Partnerships team to organise and deliver high-impact corporate and in-aid fundraising events that inspire existing and prospective corporate funders.
What knowledge and experience are we looking for?
· Proven experience working in a charity fundraising role
· Demonstrable experience managing and supporting relationships with funders
· Experience securing new funding, including writing applications and presenting to funders
NOTE: prior knowledge of the construction and built environment sector is not an essential requirement of this role.
What abilities/skills are we looking for?
· Highly organised with an ability to pay close attention to detail
· Ability to work at pace and meet deadlines
· Exceptional interpersonal and relationship building skills
· Excellent communication skills including the ability to tailor content to different audience
What will I gain?
At CYT, every member of the Partnerships team plays an active role in shaping the charity’s strategic development and is given significant opportunities for professional growth. You will have the chance to lead and deliver your own projects, shadow different areas of fundraising (including Trusts & Foundations and Major Donors), and engage directly with senior stakeholders, including the CEO and Board. You’ll be supported by a warm, collaborative team and enjoy ample opportunity to develop new skills, expand your experience, and progress your career.
Benefits include: a minimum of 25 days’ annual leave (plus an discretionary “Day for You”), a 7% employer pension contribution, hybrid working, and the opportunity to take a six-week sabbatical after three years’ service. You’ll also benefit from a supportive Training and Development policy, which actively encourages professional growth and the achievement of relevant qualifications, such as the CIOF Certificate in Fundraising.
