We’re looking for a Corporate Partnerships Fundraiser to join Enham Trust and help grow our corporate fundraising. You will manage and develop our existing partnerships while also building new relationships and identifying opportunities to bring new supporters on board.
This is a role where you will have the opportunity to take ownership, bring your own ideas and help shape how our corporate fundraising develops.
What you will be doing
You’ll build and maintain relationships with our corporate partners, while also identifying new organisations and opportunities to grow our income. You’ll work closely with businesses to develop fundraising, sponsorship, volunteering and other ways they can support Enham Trust.

You will need to be based within or near Hampshire, as we’re looking for someone who can work from our Enham Trust office around 2 to 3 days a week. You’ll also need to be comfortable travelling to meet corporate partners and attend external meetings, so you’ll need a full UK driving licence and access to a vehicle for work purposes.

Be part of establishing a new Community Insight Partnership.
Are you a skilled relationship-builder who can bring people together, identify themes across different sources of information and turn community intelligence into clear, useful insight?
The Opportunity
ESCIP is a one-year proof of concept designed to strengthen how community experience and VCSE intelligence inform local decision-making. It connects voluntary, community and social enterprise organisations with health, local authority and wider partners, creating stronger two-way feedback between communities and decision-makers.
This is not primarily an administrative post. You will build trusted relationships, coordinate a new quarterly forum, develop practical ways to gather and synthesise intelligence, and demonstrate how insight has influenced priorities and action. Because the programme is new, you will have genuine scope to shape how it works.
What You Will Achieve
Over the first 12 months, you will:
- Establish a quarterly East Surrey VCSE and Community Forum.
- Build trusted relationships with diverse VCSE organisations, including smaller groups and under-represented communities.
- Develop and test practical two-way feedback mechanisms between communities, VCSE partners and system leaders.
- Map intelligence sources and introduce consistent approaches to gathering and synthesising insight.
- Produce concise briefings highlighting emerging themes and implications for decision-makers.
- Maintain strategic relationships across health, local government, housing and neighbourhood partners.
- Support independent evaluation and contribute to the case for Year 2.

- Represent ESCIP professionally and act as a key point of contact.
Engagement and Community Insight
- Plan and deliver insight activity, including stakeholder conversations, workshops, surveys, desk research and analysis.
- Enable organisations of different sizes and capacities to contribute, particularly voices less often heard.
- Map existing intelligence sources, identify gaps and common themes, and distinguish between individual feedback, recurring themes and wider evidence.
Communication, Influence and Learning
- Turn qualitative and quantitative information into accessible summaries, briefings and recommendations.
- Create visible feedback loops so contributors understand what was heard and what happened next.
- Prepare stakeholder briefings and contribute to programme and funder reporting.
- Work with the independent evaluator and contribute learning to the future development of ESCIP.
Working Arrangements
This is a part-time role based in Oxted with autonomy and variety. Some meetings and community activity will take place across East Surrey, so the postholder must be able to travel within the area. Reasonable travel expenses will be reimbursed.
Occasional evening activity may be required by prior agreement, with time off in lieu. The postholder will work closely with colleagues from VASE and CSVA and will have access to office space, HR support and appropriate IT equipment.
About You
We welcome transferable experience from community development, participation, research, service improvement, public engagement, local government, health or partnership working.
Experience, Knowledge and Skills
Essential
- Experience building productive relationships across organisations, sectors or communities.
- Experience planning and facilitating meetings, workshops or engagement activities.
- Experience gathering information or feedback and identifying meaningful themes and insights.
- Ability to translate complex information into clear reports, briefings and recommendations.

About us
Greyhound Rescue Wales (GRW) is Wales’ leading charity dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating and rehoming greyhounds and lurchers. Founded in 1993, we have spent more than three decades championing the welfare of sighthounds and working towards our vision: a Wales without greyhound racing, where every greyhound and lurcher has a home and receives the best possible care.
In April 2026, after 25 years of determined campaigning to improve welfare and regulation within the racing industry, legislation to ban greyhound racing in Wales was finally passed. This landmark achievement marks the beginning of a new chapter for GRW as we expand our reach and capacity across the UK to ensure every greyhound leaving the racing industry has a rescue space, medical support and rehabilitation on the journey towards their forever home.
To help us grow sustainably and strengthen our long‑term impact, we are now seeking to develop our fundraising team with the creation of a Trusts and Foundations Officer. This role will play a key part in increasing and diversifying our income, enabling us to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome even more dogs during this pivotal moment in our charity’s history.
Role
This is an exciting opportunity for an ambitious Community and Events Fundraiser to develop their experience, to work within the community to increase and diversify our income stream and strengthen our charity’s profile.
The Community and Events Fundraiser is responsible for planning and delivering a varied range and scale of fundraising and events in the community.
You will proactively manage projects and build strong relationships with individuals, businesses and community groups, while also supporting and developing volunteers and their involvement.
As part of our Income Generation Team, you will work closely with the Head of Fundraising, Sponsorship & Legacies Officer and Trusts and Foundations Officer to help deliver an annual income target of £400k+.
Alongside maximising opportunities with our existing supporters, you will play a key role in developing and nurturing new ideas, partnerships and activities. Your work will help to grow this vital income stream and ensure we continue to engage with the communities and organisations that champion Greyhound Rescue Wales.
