Volunteer manager jobs in London

The Sutton Trust is the UK’s leading social mobility charity. We believe every young person should have a fair chance in life, regardless of their family’s income, the school they go to or where they grow up. But today in Britain, the opportunity to succeed is heavily shaped by socio-economic background. Our mission is to change this. Our programmes empower young people to access life-changing opportunities, and our research influences national change to deliver a fairer future.

Each year, together with our university and employer partners, we support over 14,000 young people to reach their potential through our university, apprenticeship and career access programmes. And our support doesn’t stop there. We engage our thriving alumni community to help them to succeed in their professions and to act as advocates for social mobility.

Our rigorous and extensive research shines a light on barriers to opportunity from the early years to the workplace, and we strive to influence national policy change with evidence-based solutions to tackle educational and workplace inequality. Using insights from our programmes and research, we also test and scale new ideas in education and employment practice.

As an independent charity, our work is entirely reliant on the generous support of our community of donors. The need to support our work to tackle Britain’s low social mobility has never been greater.

About the Role

The Corporate Partnerships Manager sits within an ambitious and forward-thinking Fundraising & Communications team at an exciting point of growth, as we develop. This is a pivotal role for someone who is motivated not only by stewarding and deepening existing partnerships, but by actively driving new business and unlocking fresh opportunities for impact.

Based in Westminster, at the heart of power and industry, we are uniquely positioned to connect with businesses and organisations whose employees encounter the reality of homelessness every day—on their commute, on their lunch break, and on the streets around them. This role offers a powerful opportunity to inspire those organisations to take action, providing meaningful ways for them to respond to an issue that is visible on all our doorsteps.

We are looking for a dynamic and strategic relationship-builder who can both nurture a strong portfolio of current corporate supporters and proactively identify, secure, and grow new partnerships aligned with our mission. The successful candidate will play a central role in shaping and expanding our Corporate Partnerships function, with significant scope to influence direction, test new ideas, and deliver meaningful income growth.

This role will suit someone ambitious, creative, and results-driven—someone who thrives on developing compelling propositions, spotting opportunities, and turning them into long-term, high-value partnerships. You will bring a strong track record in corporate fundraising or partnerships, alongside a solutions-focused mindset and the confidence to translate sector best practice into tangible results. And you’ll be passionate about creating partnerships that deliver real social impact.
