Business Development Manager

Prospectus is delighted to work with Carers Trust to recruit their new Head of Corporate Partnerships and Business Development. The Head of Corporate Partnerships and Business Development will be an entrepreneurial leader responsible for driving new business, nurturing corporate partnerships, and supporting the development of commercial products.
Carers Trust is a UK infrastructure charity dedicated to transforming the lives of unpaid carers through its partnership with a national network of local carer organisations. This is an exciting time to join this thriving organisation, which is investing in fundraising and has a strategic plan to ensure:

• Every carer has access to a high-quality local carer organisation
• No carer is pushed into poverty or financially disadvantaged by their caring role
• All carers, regardless of circumstances or age, can enjoy a fulfilling role alongside their caring responsibilities.

This permanent role offers a salary of £55,000 - £60,000 per annum plus excellent benefits. It is office-based with flexibility for remote work. Carers Trust has an office in London, SE1.
As the Head of Corporate Partnerships and Business Development, you will develop and implement a credible Business Development plan to secure six-figure, sustainable partnerships that deliver both restricted and unrestricted income. You will work alongside the Senior Leadership Team on cross-charity initiatives, providing creativity and drive.
We seek a creative, ambitious, and commercially-minded specialist in corporate partnerships and Business Development, with a proven track record of winning significant five and six-figure partnerships. You do not need to have experience at the 'Head of' level, but you should have an affinity with the charity sector rather than extensive direct experience.
At Prospectus we invest in your journey as a candidate and are committed to supporting you with your application. We welcome candidates from a diverse range of backgrounds and we are happy to make reasonable adjustments to enable all interested candidates to apply. Please contact Femke Vorstman at Prospectus.
If you are interested in this position, please submit your CV in the first instance. Should your experience be suitable, we will send you the full job description and will arrange for a call and/or meeting to brief you on the role. You’ll then have all the information you need to formally apply. We are looking forward to connecting with you soon.
