About Leuchie
Leuchie is the national respite charity giving families a break from the physical and emotional responsibilities of caring for a loved one. The charity is dedicated to supporting individuals and families living with a neurological condition such as MS, MND, Parkinson’s, and stroke through short respite breaks and outreach services.
Leuchie provides a range of settings that suit the health needs and circumstances of the individual and their family. These include short breaks with 24-hour nursing and care, therapies, social activities, and outings at Leuchie House, accessible self-catering accommodation for all the family, or regular at-home support.
Through innovative partnership working and research, Leuchie is reimagining the delivery of respite as a way of meeting wider health and social care outcomes for the families it supports.
Dorothy is 98 and a carer for her 68-year-old son Robert who has multiple sclerosis. This is what Leuchie means to her - “It gives me a rest and some peace. It also helps me carry on by having something to look forward to.”
There is a growing need to support those living with a neurological condition and their families that Leuchie is determined to respond to. The charity currently supports around 500 families, just like Dorothy and Robert, each year, and has a strategic intent to positively impact ten times as many lives by 2030.
This is a key role in developing and managing high-value corporate partnerships, securing new business support, and driving revenue growth. Leuchie is looking for someone with significant experience in corporate fundraising or business development either from a charity fundraising background or a commercial role focused on income generation. You will be highly skilled in identifying opportunities, securing partnerships, and developing creative campaigns that align with both Leuchie’s mission and corporate partners’ objectives.
Leuchie has significant potential to expand its support from corporate partnerships and you will play a crucial role in strengthening and growing these relationships. You should have a strong track record in securing and stewarding high-value 5 to 6 figure partnerships, negotiating sponsorship deals, and engaging key decision-makers in meaningful collaborations.
You will work closely with the Director of Development and Head of Fundraising, and have the support of a highly engaged leadership team and impressive Board of Trustees. Experience in setting and exceeding income targets, developing corporate engagement strategies, and delivering impact reports to senior stakeholders is essential.
