About the role

Dementia UK has experienced significant growth, from raising £19.4m in 2023 to £31.4m last financial year. A crucial part of this growth has been through securing and delivering two multi-million-pound corporate partnerships with Nationwide Building Society (2024-2027) and Deutsche Bank (2024-2025). We have recently launched our 2025-2030 strategy, and our reinvigorated Corporate Partnerships Team has more ambition and aspiration than ever to take our impact to the next level.

This role will be a strong match for an experienced, confident and ambitious senior corporate fundraiser, with a successful track record of securing six-figure partnerships and significantly uplifting partnerships over sustained periods. The post-holder will have a proactive, curious and collaborative approach to pursuing partnership opportunities, with a passion for building strong relationships with key stakeholders (both external and internal) who can help bring them into fruition. You will have a determined, strategic and growth mindset that will empower you to make the role your own, accelerating the corporate new business function and, in turn, our vision of a world where no one faces dementia alone
