Head of Partnerships

Open for Business is a charity with a vision of a world where business and the economic case is a driving force in advancing LGBTQ+ equality around the world. 

We lead a Coalition of 38 global businesses, who have made a commitment to LGBTQ+ inclusion and make the economic case for LGBTQ+ inclusion using data and research. 

We develop the evidence base that shows that more inclusive, diverse societies are not just good for individuals, they are also better for business and economic growth.

We are recruiting for a dynamic and ambitious Head of Partnerships, who will lead on the account management of our 38 global Coalition Partners, to leverage the power of our Coalition to advance LGBTQ+ equality, and grow the number and value of Coalition Partners.

This is an exciting role in a fast-paced organisation committed to ensuring LGBTQ+ inclusion globally, which will see the successful candidate manage partnerships with many of the world’s leading companies. 

The role will provide best-in-class account management and stewardship to our Coalition, ensuring they have a calendar of impactful and inspiring opportunities to engage with Open for Business and our programmes throughout the year and identifying areas for growth and development which result in higher levels of income generation.

The role will also be responsible for leading on developing and progressing a pipeline of new business opportunities, to recruit the support of additional Coalition Partners, both financial and non-financial, who will enable Open for Business to continue achieving our mission.

The Head of Partnerships will work alongside the Director of Development to grow and maximise the financial and non-financial value of our Coalition of global businesses.
