Marie Curie is the UK's leading end-of-life charity. We are the largest non-NHS provider of end-of-life care in the UK, the only provider across all 4 nations, delivering community nursing and hospice care across the country, while providing information and support on all aspects of dying, death, and bereavement. Our leading research pushes the boundaries of what we know about good end-of-life, and our campaigns fight for a world where everyone gets to have the best possible quality of life while living with an illness, they're likely to die from.
We want a different society than the one we live in now. Our mission for the next five years is to close the gap in the number of people missing out on what they need at the end-of-life, through 3 ways:
- Growing and transforming our direct care and support
- Delivering more practical information and support
- Leading in shaping the end-of-life experience
Your role in our mission…
- We are seeking two ambitious New Partnerships Leads with a strong track record of identifying, cultivating and winning six and seven figure charity of the year, cause related marketing, sponsorship, brand and strategic partnerships.
- With a sector-led approach, you will have responsibility and accountability for developing and implementing successful sector strategies and proactively generating leads to build, maintain and convert your own high-value pipeline.
- You will be a motivated, tenacious, resilient expert in corporate partnerships, and be able to seek out and develop new strategic, mutually beneficial partnerships that will generate significant income and awareness for Marie Curie.
- These roles require someone who is a strategic and commercial thinker, with the ability to maximise both short term opportunities and plan for the long term. You will have strong sector/industry networks, an expert understanding of corporate partnerships and have a proven ability to lead, develop and implement ambitious sector strategies.
- Essential to these roles is an ability to build strong internal and external relationships, and the ability to lead, motivate and support other team members. You will need to collaborate to produce high quality, tailored new business proposals, pitches and vote strategies at pace.
These roles will also require a willingness to travel across the UK.
