Thanks for taking the time to explore the role of Partnerships Manager at the Family Holiday Charity. We're here to help families facing some of life's toughest challenges to experience the anticipation, joy and impact of a break from the day to day.
This is a new role that's key to us achieving our strategy - in simple terms, helping more families to get away and ensuring that every family has the chance to go on holiday.

You'll need to be brilliant at building relationships, and creative with the approaches you take to offer partners and prospects opportunities to support our mission.
You'll bring strong commercial acumen and an ability to structure mutually beneficial agreements, that align partner priorities and our goals. You'll have proven experience of pitching for and winning partnership bids with a wide range of businesses.
This role will work across the whole organisation in order to deliver its objectives so interpersonal skills are key. Fortunately, we're a fabulous team. We're definitely in the small but mighty category!
This is a hybrid role, and you'll need to come into the office periodically (but none of that performative stuff about showing your face once a week), and we're open to conversations about flexbility and what that means for you!
It's vital that you're happy and confident in making your next career move, so let's take the time to chat if you'd like to!
