Building strong, long-term relationships across a mix of partnership types
Supporting corporate-led events and wider community fundraising activity
Working closely with fundraising and communications colleagues
Accurately recording activity and income using a CRM
The organisation is based on a beautiful site between Teddington and Hampton Wick, offering a genuinely lovely working environment.
The team typically works 2–3 days per week in the office, with Tuesday as the anchor team day, and the remainder working from home.
You’ll bring:
Experience in corporate fundraising or partnerships
A track record of managing relationships and delivering income
