Location: King's Cross, London (Hybrid)
Contract length: 24-month fixed term contract
Hours: 0.8 FTE with option to consider full-time
Salary: c. £44,000

Art Fund is the UK’s national charity for museums and galleries. We fundraise to help public arts organisations to develop and share their collections, to connect with their communities, to invest in professional development for their staff, and to inspire the next generation.

We are supported by our growing membership of 135,000 through the National Art Pass, as well as many individuals, trusts and foundations, funding partners and companies.

As Senior Manager: Corporate Partnerships, you’ll play a critical role in raising support for Art Fund by developing the Corporate National Art Pass – Art Fund’s corporate membership programme – and wider partnership and sponsorship opportunities, enabling businesses to inspire engagement with art and culture and align with Art Fund’s charitable mission.

You will develop and implement strategies to strengthen relationships with corporate supporters, enhance the membership experience for employees, raise the profile of the scheme and develop a pipeline of potential corporate clients.

Building on your proven track-record of leveraging successful business relationships, you’ll develop proposals for corporate alignment with Art Fund, contributing to our ambitious income targets to bolster our support for UK museums.

As a strong communicator and analytical thinker, this is a chance to lead a creative approach to corporate fundraising and partnerships and shape a longer-term strategy, and to collaborate with colleagues across Art Fund to bring companies closer to our work and the many benefits of access to art and culture.
