We stand for music and believe in the value of music for all people in our society. Every day we use the power of music to enrich the lives of people affected by life-limiting illness, trauma, isolation, social exclusion or disability.
Our goal is to bring more people together through the power of music. We can only do this if we pioneer creative new approaches to income generation that help us engage more people and grow our fundraising.
We need courageous, curious, agile, innovative change makers and music lovers like you to make this happen. This role is your chance to help us achieve our ambitious goal of transforming more people’s lives through music.
The Culture
If you want to work at a charity with people and music at its heart; that is committed to providing an equitable, diverse and inclusive workplace full of inspiring colleagues who work tirelessly to put those we exist to serve front and centre of everything we do; if you want to work collaboratively with integrity and kindness and are willing to come with us on a journey as we work together, we could be your next team.
Could this be the place for you?
If you are values driven, courageous, curious, agile, flexible, enthusiastic and future focused (without losing sight of the here and now), if you can bring positivity and accountability to your work, if you strive for brilliance, challenges excite you and if you would speak with passion and dedication about our cause we want to hear from you!
What we need
About the role
You’ll be joining the partnerships team, which is a key role within the fundraising department and part of our wider Income Generation directorate. You will have a minimum of three years account management experience gained in charity corporate partnerships or a relevant account management role, as well as a proven track record of cultivating, securing and successfully managing corporate relationships. You are a natural strong communicator, with the ability to build effective and long-term relationships both internally and externally.
You’ll have proven experience of inspiring and motivating supporters and developing partners enabling them to maximise all income generating activities in the area and deliver impressive results. The Nordoff and Robbins partnerships portfolio is going from strength to strength, and we have created this new role to truly accelerate our partnerships offering and meet ambitious fundraising targets as part of our new 5-year strategy.
What we offer
The three best things about the job (in our humble opinion)
- You will be the Lead Account Manager across a portfolio of household brands and corporate partners most of which are connected to Music, Entertainment and Media.
- You will be invited to bring bold, creative, and forward-thinking engagement and relationship management to help us communicate the amazing impact of Music Therapy to our partners.
- You will be instrumental in inspiring and motivating corporate partners and developing to maximise all income generating activities and deliver impressive results.
Don’t worry, you don’t need to be musical, but you do need to be able to work cross-organisationally with colleagues in all areas of the charity to help bring awareness of our mission, vision and achievements to the world.
