Background

Every three minutes someone in the UK develops dementia: a progressive and complex condition that can be devastating for the whole family. One in two of us will be affected by dementia in our lifetime – either by caring for someone with the condition, developing it ourselves, or both.

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nursing charity that is there for the whole family. Our specialist nurses, known as Admiral Nurses, provide free, expert advice, support and understanding to help families care for their loved one. Every day, Admiral Nurses help families up and down the country to have the best life possible, for as long as possible.

About the role

Our Fundraising and Engagement department has grown significantly in recent years, and we have exciting plans to expand further! We are looking for a Corporate Partnerships Executive who is eager to develop their corporate fundraising career and contribute to our ambitious goals.

As Corporate Partnerships Executive, you will work closely with our Nationwide Corporate Partnerships Manager, providing expert stewardship to Nationwide colleagues across their branch network and offices.

To succeed in this role, you will have proven experience supporting partnerships in either the charity or corporate sector, with a strong understanding of corporate fundraising in the third sector.

What we do 

Time & Talents is a lively, busy community centre in the heart of Rotherhithe, SE16.  Set in a leafy heritage building, and ‘T&T2’, our second venue in Surrey Quays Shopping Centre, we offer something for everyone.
