Partnerships jobs

Are you a natural relationship-builder who loves meeting people, making connections and getting things done?

We're looking for a Development Executive to join our small, friendly team and play a key role in growing and strengthening our professional community.

This is a varied and rewarding role where no two days are the same. One day you might be attending a university event, supporting a student committee meeting or helping to deliver a member event; the next you could be speaking to prospective members, building relationships with clinic owners or following up opportunities through our CRM.

Working closely with the Director of Development and wider team, you'll help recruit and engage members, support our student and new graduate community, grow our clinic-level membership offering and provide practical support across events, partnerships and member engagement activities.

We're looking for someone who enjoys building relationships, is confident starting conversations, has a strong customer or sales mindset and thrives in a fast-paced environment. Most importantly, you'll be someone who rolls up their sleeves, gets stuck in and enjoys being part of a collaborative team working towards shared goals.

We welcome applications from candidates seeking either full-time or part-time hours. We're looking for the right person to join our team and are happy to discuss a working pattern that works for both parties.

The working days for this role are mostly: Monday-Friday, 9am - 5pm. However, some flexibility will be required on occasion to meet the needs of the service.

In this varied role, you will:

• Lead and coordinate learning and employment programmes
• Support the operational management of a semi-independent service

• Build strong partnerships with training and employment providers
