About us
Crisis is the national charity for homeless people, working side by side with thousands of people each year as they find ways out of homelessness. We know that homelessness is not inevitable; we know that together we can end it.

This pivotal role will lead the development of a corporate and commercial engagement strategy across Crisis, growing and deepening our portfolio of corporate partners, broadening their support for our organisation and our cause, and inspiring them to act within their businesses. The role also involves leading the continued development of our fundraising and partnerships outside of London, creating a national support network to end homelessness.

-
Has secured and developed significant corporate partnerships.

-
Can think creatively about partnerships, leveraging the unique opportunities that Crisis has.
-
Can develop a national income and engagement strategy appropriate to our work in English regions, Scotland, and Wales.
We believe diversity is a strength, and we aim to ensure that Crisis truly reflects the communities we serve. We are actively working towards our organisation being a place where everyone can thrive and make their best contribution to our mission of ending homelessness for good. We know that the more perspectives, voices, and experiences we can bring to this work, the better. We particularly welcome applications from people who have lived experience of homelessness, and people from all marginalised groups, communities, and backgrounds.

Interest free loans for travel season ticket, cycle to work, and deposit to secure a tenancy.
