If you are looking to develop your corporate fundraising skills and support high-impact partnerships, this is your opportunity to make a real difference.

Why Now?

You’ll be joining us at a pivotal moment. As we tackle the evolving challenges facing young people, we’re setting bold targets for corporate income and deepening our commercial activations. With our 50th anniversary year in 2026, we’re using this milestone to celebrate, as well as supercharge partnership growth and engagement across sectors.

Who We Work With

We collaborate with a diverse range of leading organisations, including M&S, Google, HSBC, and British Airways. Our partnerships deliver measurable value to our partners, The King's Trust, and most importantly, the young people we support.

The Impact of Our Partnerships

Our sector collaborations drive change in three key areas:

• Employability: Connecting businesses with young talent to build inclusive pipelines and transform lives.
• Commercial: Creating brand-aligned campaigns and sponsorships that deliver mutual value.
• Employee Engagement: Empowering staff to fundraise and volunteer, bringing their skills and energy to our mission.

Your Role

As Corporate Partnerships Executive, you’ll manage and grow a portfolio of strategic partnerships, potentially including Tesco, News UK, Tangle Teaser, and L’Oreal Group, to generate vital income and drive impact. You’ll:

• Support and deliver strategic partnership plans that deepen engagement.
• Meet financial targets and deliver on programme, commercial, and communications objectives.
• Collaborate within a matrix team of account managers to maximise success.

What You’ll Join

A passionate, high-performing team of partnership experts committed to helping end youth unemployment. Together, we’re building a better future through education, employment, and opportunity.

What happens next?  

Please submit a CV, and Cover Letter that includes your experience, transferrable skills and motivation to work for The King's Trust! The Team will be in touch about the next steps shortly after the closing date. 

Why do we need Corporate Partnerships Executives? 

Last year, we helped more than 40,000 Young People, with three in four young people on our programmes moving into a positive outcome in work, education or training. The young people we help face a range of challenges, such as unemployment, mental health issues or some who have been in trouble with the law. We believe all young people should have the chance to succeed, and that young people are the key to a positive and prosperous future for all of us. We want to continue having a positive impact on young people’s lives and we couldn’t do this without the important work of Corporate Partnerships Executives!

Role & Responsibilities

We’re entering an exciting new phase. With a bold new strategy, ambitious Nature Recovery programmes (including species reintroductions, landscape-scale rewilding and river restoration), and a rapidly rising public profile — including recent collaboration with Sir David Attenborough on the BBC’s Wild London — this is a pivotal moment for our organisation.

To support this growth, we’re looking for an exceptional Head of Finance to reinvigorate, strengthen and modernise our finance function — ensuring it’s fit for the organisation we’re becoming.

Reporting to the COO and working closely with the Senior Leadership Team, Finance Committee and Board, you’ll lead all aspects of financial management across London Wildlife Trust and our trading subsidiary. You’ll play a critical role in shaping how Finance operates — improving systems, controls, reporting and insight so the organisation can confidently adapt to recent and future growth.

Transaction volumes have increased significantly in recent years, and a key early focus of this role will be leading a programme of operational improvement. You’ll roll up your sleeves, lead the finance team through change, and embed better ways of working that strengthen our foundations while enabling smarter decision-making across the organisation.

• Lead all aspects of financial management for London Wildlife Trust and its trading subsidiary
• Lead a programme of finance transformation, improving systems, processes, controls and ways of working to ensure Finance is fit for a growing organisation.
• Own budgeting, forecasting and multi-year financial planning, producing clear, insightful management accounts and analysis to support decision-making.
• Provide high-quality financial reporting and advice to the SLT, Finance Committee and Board, highlighting risks, opportunities and strategic choices.
• Act as a finance business partner to senior leaders and teams across the Trust, improving financial understanding, ownership and accountability.
• Work closely with fundraising, trading and project teams to support income generation, funding compliance and effective financial oversight.
• Lead, coach and develop the finance team, building a confident, collaborative and improvement-focused finance function.

Our ideal Head of Finance

• Fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, or CIMA)
• Significant experience at Head of, or equivalent, level in the charity sector (likely 3-5 years)
• Strong working knowledge of Charity SORP and charity financial governance
• Experience with delivering and overseeing exceptional financial operations
• Strong financial planning, reporting and insight experience

Closing Date: Monday 26th January at 9am
Interviews: Are scheduled to take place on 4th and 6th February and reasonable adjustments will be offered to all candidates.
