Centrepoint, the UK's leading youth homelessness charity, is looking for a Corporate Partnerships Co-ordinator to join our Relationship Fundraising team, based in either London or Manchester.

About us

We help vulnerable young people by giving them the practical and emotional support they need to find a job and live independently. Centrepoint provides homeless young people with accommodation, health support and life skills in order to get them back into education, training and employment.

We want to end youth homelessness by 2037. Together with our partners, we support over 16,000 young people each year.  

This is an exciting time to join our award winning Corporate Partnerships team as we continue a period of significant growth. The Corporate Partnerships team manages a diverse portfolio of partnerships including long-term strategic partnerships, Charity of the Year relationships and cause-related marketing campaigns, generating over £8.6 million annually. Support from our corporate partners plays a vital role in helping us achieve our vision of ending youth homelessness.

As Corporate Partnerships Co-ordinator, you'll be at the heart of a high-performing ten-person team, helping to deliver an outstanding supporter experience while ensuring the smooth and effective running of team operations.

Centrepoint operates a hybrid working model. The requirement is a minimum of 50% of your working week in the office. For most full-time colleagues, this means attending the office for five days over a two-week period.

About you

• You're an organised and ambitious individual looking for your next step in fundraising, partnerships or account management. You enjoy building relationships, have a keen eye for detail and take pride in delivering excellent service.
• Whether you've worked in fundraising, sales support, customer success, events or administration, you're someone who thrives in a fast-paced environment, enjoys juggling different priorities and is motivated by being part of a team that delivers exceptional results.
• You'll be excited by the opportunity to learn from experienced account managers, take ownership of your own projects and partnerships, and play a key role in helping Centrepoint's corporate fundraising programme continue to grow.

What you'll be doing

• Leading on financial processes, including purchase orders, invoices, income coding and monthly reconciliation support.
• Acting as the team lead for Raiser's Edge NXT and supporting colleagues to maximise its use.
• Managing the corporate partnerships inbox, ensuring enquiries are responded to or redirected promptly.
• Thanking supporters and assisting with stewardship activity, including report and newsletter writing.
• Supporting Account Managers and Senior Managers with the delivery of high-value corporate partnerships.
• Managing selected mid-value partnerships and building strong supporter relationships.
• Supporting the Corporate New Business team with presentations, research and other ad-hoc projects.
• Leading on data processes and communications support for Centrepoint's flagship Sleep Out event.
• Representing the team on cross-organisational projects where appropriate.
• Providing administrative support to the Corporate Partnerships team and, on occasion, the Director of Fundraising.

What we'd be looking for from you...

• Previous experience in an administrative, fundraising, customer service or partnerships role.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong organisational skills and the ability to prioritise competing deadlines.
• Confidence working with databases and Microsoft Office applications.
• Excellent attention to detail, particularly when managing financial or data processes.
• A collaborative approach and a commitment to delivering excellent supporter experiences.
• An interest in fundraising and a passion for helping end youth homelessness.

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
• Private Medical Insurance
• Income Protection
• Employer pension contributions of 5%
• Access to Cycle 2 Work loan scheme
• An interest-free travel loan

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.
