About East Anglian Air Ambulance
We are East Anglian Air Ambulance. A charity providing lifesaving critical care every day of the year across Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Norfolk and Suffolk. Whether by air or road, we bring hospital-level care to the most seriously ill and injured, probably on the worst day of their lives.
From blood transfusions and pain relief to anaesthesia and emergency surgery, our doctors and paramedics give patients the best chance of survival and recovery. And it doesn’t stop there. We also offer vital aftercare, train people in lifesaving skills, and carry out clinical research to keep improving care.
We’re fuelled entirely by donations, without any regular government funding, so our corporate supporters and their fundraising is hugely important to us.
About the Role
We are bringing relationship fundraising (major giving) and partnerships into one team, and you will play a significant role in growing corporate supporters and income for the charity. You will shape the corporate partnerships strategy and lead a great partnerships team who are securing new and stewarding existing, corporate supporters and commercial partnerships across East Anglia.
