Come and join us and be part of a mission to save lives and end economic abuse forever!
In 2024, a staggering 4.1 million UK women experienced economic abuse at the hands of their current or former partner. The rising cost of living has only exacerbated the devastated impact of this form of domestic abuse.
Surviving Economic Abuse (SEA) is the only UK charity dedicated to raising awareness of economic abuse and transforming responses to it.
Since our founding in 2017, we’ve proudly campaigned successfully for the recognition of economic abuse in UK law and influenced wide-ranging systemic change to transform responses to it. We're now entering an ambitious new phase, and we’re seeking a dynamic, strategic and values-led Head of Income as part of the Senior Leadership Teamto help drive it forward.
This is a critical time for SEA. With a bold three-year strategy now in place, we’re looking for an experienced income-generation leader to oversee and diversify our income streams — across high-net-worth giving, corporate partnerships, trusts and foundations, and earned income through consultancy and training. As a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, the Head of Income will play a vital role in shaping the future of the organisation and enabling us to scale our impact.
The Head of Income will lead a talented team, including our Senior Fundraising Manager (trusts and foundations) and Corporate Development Manager (strategic multi-stakeholder partnerships), and collaborate closely with our CEO, Trustees and earned income delivery teams (consultancy and training) whilst also being hands on in relationship development. Your approach will be collaborative, survivor-centred and driven by SEA’s values. We are particularly interested in hearing from candidates with strong experience in high-value fundraising and/or commercial income generation.

- Proven success in income generation from high-net-worth individuals and/or corporate partners
- Strategic mindset with the ability to lead and grow multi-stream income
- Experience of working in a small, agile organisation and line-managing high-performing teams
- Experience of working at Senior Leadership Team level, or readiness to step into the role
- A confident communicator with strong relationship-building skills
- A commitment to SEA’s feminist ethos, values and mission
What we offer the Head of Income
- 25 days annual leave + 5 wellbeing days + bank holidays
- Home-based and flexible working options
- Reflective practice and wellbeing support
- 5% employer pension contribution
- Enhanced family leave, carers leave, sick pay
