We are Zarach, the children’s bed charity, and we’re on a mission to end child bed poverty, giving children the opportunity to engage at school and break the cycle of poverty.
In our nearly seven years as a registered charity, we’ve captured the hearts and attention of many individuals, community groups, businesses and funders who want to support us on our mission. We’ve also been given an incredible media platform from which we have raised awareness of child bed poverty at local, regional and national levels. This support and awareness has seen us deliver over 12,000 bed bundles to children to date.
Our cause and story have captured the nation’s attention, and we have been provided with an incredible national platform that has seen us appear on local and national TV, on the radio, and in the national press. This has included appearances on BBC Breakfast, ITV News, Channel 4 News, Radio 5 Live, BBC Look North, and The Independent newspaper supported our Christmas 2023 appeal, culminating in Zarach being the front-page story on Christmas Day.
In our short history, we have received continual funding support from a range of charitable trusts & foundations, businesses, and individuals, providing a great overall income and resources mix.
With an estimated 4.5 million children in the UK living in poverty – including 1 million experiencing destitution and around 900,000 living in bed poverty – we have an aspiration to reach more children, in more areas of highest need across the country.
We are looking for a mission-driven and values-led Business & Corporate Partnerships Manager to lead and grow our fundraising efforts as we seek to lift more children, in more parts of the country out of bed poverty.
Working within our small and dynamic Fundraising & Supporter Engagement team, you will be responsible for securing and nurturing partnerships with businesses, securing Charity of the Year relationships, and creating new opportunities to engage the business and corporate sector with our mission.
As our ideal candidate, you will need to be within commuting distance to our Leeds warehouse, meaning you can travel regularly to meet with the team.
You will be someone who has proven experience in corporate fundraising and/or business development, with a track record of securing and maintaining partnerships.
Ideally, you’ll have experience of fundraising in the charity sector, due to some of the specialities that come with this. But charity experience is not essential if you can demonstrate an appetite and track record for continual learning and development across your working life to date.
To decide if you’d like to bring your skills and experience to bear in the pursuit of our mission, please have a look at the job description, our website, and the coverage of us across social media.
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
Thank you!
