North London Hospice has been caring for local people since 1984, providing specialist palliative and end-of-life care to people with life-limiting illnesses across Barnet, Enfield and Haringey, and increasingly within Camden and Islington. Our services are completely free of charge however it now costs more than £16m a year to run our charity. We rely on the generosity of our community through donations and our shops to make up the shortfall in funding.
We're looking for a motivated and ambitious Corporate Partnerships Senior Officer to join our Fundraising Team and support the growth of an exciting and developing area of income generation.
Working alongside our Corporate Partnerships Manager, you'll help build and strengthen relationships with businesses across North London and beyond, helping to secure sustainable income that makes a real difference to the patients and families we support.

You'll play a key role in growing our portfolio of corporate supporters, identifying new opportunities, supporting partnership pitches, and ensuring our existing partners feel valued, engaged and inspired to continue supporting the hospice.
This is an exciting opportunity to build your fundraising career, develop new skills and work within a dynamic team while contributing to the development of an area with significant growth potential.
Key Responsibilities
- Manage a portfolio of corporate partnerships, ensuring an outstanding supporter experience and long-term engagement.
- Support the Corporate Partnerships Manager to identify and secure new business opportunities.
- Research prospective corporate partners and sectors.
- Help prepare compelling partnership proposals, pitches and cases for support.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with existing and prospective supporters.
