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 identify opportunities for different areas of fundraising to complement one another and create meaningful pathways for supporters to deepen their relationship with Stonewall Housing.

This is a senior role that combines strategic thinking with hands-on income generation.

• Translate organisational priorities, service developments and evidence of impact into compelling cases for support and fundable opportunities.

• Identify opportunities to increase unrestricted and flexible income while maintaining a balanced and sustainable funding portfolio.

• Develop new fundraising products, campaigns and partnerships where there is clear potential for sustainable growth and positive return on investment.

• Maintain a strong understanding of the external fundraising environment, including emerging trends in corporate giving, responsible business, philanthropy and supporter engagement.
