The Role:
At Oxfam, we believe that the right partnerships can drive extraordinary change. If you’re someone who loves creating new relationships, spotting opportunities, and inspiring others to join a global mission that matters, this could be your next move.
We’re looking for a New Partnerships Manager to help us secure long-term, high-impact corporate partnerships—particularly in the Fashion and Food & Agriculture sectors. These partnerships will play a crucial role in advancing our work on gender justice, climate justice and humanitarian action.
What you'll be doing
As our New Partnerships Manager, you will:
- Build and cultivate a strong pipeline of new corporate prospects, using creative, targeted approaches.
- Develop and pitch compelling partnership ideas, proposals and presentations that show companies how they can make a meaningful difference with Oxfam.
- Act as a trusted relationship-builder — listening carefully, understanding what partners need, and creating agreements that work for everyone.
- Collaborate closely with colleagues across Oxfam, including country teams, senior leaders and technical experts, to shape partnership opportunities grounded in real programme needs and community priorities.
- Work with our Integrity & Ethics colleagues to ensure all partnerships align with our values and standards.
- Represent Oxfam at external events, sector networks and senior-level meetings.

- Excellent relationship-building skills, including listening, negotiation and understanding what motivates people and organisations.
- Experience or interest in international development, sustainability, ethical business, responsible supply chains or related areas.
- A flexible, resilient and self-motivated mindset.
- A commitment to Oxfam’s feminist principles and to building inclusive, equitable partnerships.
Experience in Fashion or Food & Agriculture sectors is a big plus (in particular working on ethical trade and responsible business practices in supply chains) as is familiarity with Salesforce or similar CRM systems — but neither is essential.
What we offer:
- Flexible working options
- A supportive, values-driven team culture
- Opportunities to develop your skills in partnership-building, ethical business and sustainable development
- The chance to deliver partnerships with real-world impact
- An environment where you can bring your whole self to work and help shape a fairer, kinder world

We work flexibly, collaboratively and with deep respect for the communities we serve. We are committed to inclusion, accountability and empowerment, and we expect all colleagues to uphold these values every day.
