Beyond this, they will have explored potential commercial partnerships for Start Network in the short to medium term.

The successful candidate will have a proven track record of developing and managing successful partnerships globally, a strategic mindset, and the ability to think creatively to identify new opportunities. Further, it will require commercial experience, understanding of building social
enterprises / building for-profit arms of charities.
