Our vision is to bring hope to every one of our patients across London, when they need us most, where they need us most. We’re a charity that works alongside the NHS and our life-saving service is made possible by our supporters.
Building on the strong success of the past two years we have the opportunity to become leaders in innovative philanthropy and to achieve this we’re investing in the right skills and experience to strengthen our talented team and build on a solid foundation, with the ambition to become a world leader in philanthropic giving.
The Head of Philanthropy and Partnerships will provide strategic, commercial and visionary leadership for London’s Air Ambulance Charity’s high-value income portfolio, shaping and delivering an ambitious, insight-led Philanthropy and Partnerships Strategy aligned to the charity’s 15-year strategy. With overall accountability for sustainable and transformational income growth, the role will maximise the financial and strategic value of philanthropy and partnerships, diversify income and identify new opportunities, markets and relationships that can accelerate the charity’s long-term ambitions.
A key focus will be to build a strong organisational culture of philanthropy, bringing together leaders, trustees, clinicians and colleagues to identify and maximise high-value fundraising and strategic partnership opportunities. The postholder will lead and develop a high-performing philanthropy and partnerships team, fostering a culture of ambition, accountability, commercial discipline, innovation and continuous improvement, while building trusted relationships that deliver lasting value for the charity and the communities it serves.
We’re looking for an ambitious, commercially astute and highly credible relationship leader who can help us take our philanthropy and partnerships programme to the next level.
You may come from a senior philanthropy, corporate partnerships or fundraising background, or from a commercial environment such as business development or strategic relationship management. What matters most is your ability to build influential relationships, identify and develop opportunities, translate them into compelling propositions and deliver sustainable growth and impact.
If you’re a strategic relationship leader who knows how to turn opportunity into growth, bring people with you and use your commercial expertise to create meaningful social impact, we’d love to hear from you.
