Save the Children UK has an exciting opportunity for an influential and collaborative individual to join us as a Partnerships Manager with proven experience in either corporate partnerships, within the commercial sector, or partnerships more widely.
About Us
Save the Children UK believes every child deserves a future. In the UK and around the world, we work every day to give children a healthy start in life, the opportunity to learn and protection from harm. When crisis strikes, and children are most vulnerable, we are always among the first to respond and the last to leave. We ensure childrens unique needs are met and their voices are heard. We deliver lasting results for millions of children, including those hardest to reach.
About you
As our Partnerships Manager, you will act as the day-to-day lead manager and central point of contact for major partnerships, ensuring the full potential value of these partnerships is maximised. You will work closely with our Programme Management team to support the successful delivery of our Programme for our global top ten partnerships.
You will develop and deliver long term growth strategies for our partnerships, proactively identifying and pursuing new opportunities that align with Save the Children and our partners priorities.
Additionally, you will achieve and exceed income targets or agreed Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) set for the partnership, leveraging resources to support the achievement of partnerships goals, monitor progress, and evaluate benefits.
In this role, you will:
* Develop and maintain trusted relationships with key stakeholders and partners, supporting them in ethical storytelling and communication efforts.
* Achieve financial and non-financial targets by creating and implementing detailed strategies for short-term income and long-term growth.
* Monitor and manage income, expenditure, and resources, providing regular forecasting and analysis to ensure financial objectives are met.
* Collaborate internally across Save the Children and with external markets to leverage resources and experience, ensuring partnerships align with organizational values and policies.
* Prepare and adapt various communications, including presentations, proposals, social media content, and reports, tailored to different audiences.
* Support senior colleagues and the broader Partnerships & Philanthropy team, including potential UK or international travel and engagement with legal and marketing teams for contract and project execution.
To be successful, it is important that you have:
* A growth mindset to drive forward progress with vision, energy, creativity and in a proactive manner. Strong communication skills combined with strong project management, organisational and relationship-building skills.
* Solid experience of managing complex partnerships, or within the commercial sector, to demonstrate the key elements required to succeed in this role.
* Experience in, or a strong desire and willingness to learn about international development.
* Experience in managing growth opportunities/sales pipeline, with solid outcomes and results.
* Ability to focus on the achievement of financial targets and view issues in terms of costs, profits, markets and added values.
What we offer you:
* Working for a charity provides one of the best benefits there is – a sense of purpose and reward for helping others. However, we understand the importance of giving back to our employees to ensure a happy and healthy working environment and work/life balance.
* To have the best (and happiest) employees we focus on flexibility, inclusion, collaboration, health and wellbeing both in and outside of work.
* We provide a wide range of benefits which will reward your hard work, motivate you, and inspire you to work to improve the lives of children every day.
