account manager London, England
Job description
Do you love dogs? Are you a tenacious account manager, with excellent relationship building skills looking for a new challenge?
Dogs Trust has exciting plans to grow its reach and impact over the next ten years with the launch of our new organisational strategy. In fact, we’ve been helping dogs for over 130 years. In that time, we’ve found forever homes for hundreds of thousands of our faithful friends, dramatically reduced numbers being put to sleep, and helped to all but eliminate strays from the UK’s streets. We've also established universal microchipping, campaigned tirelessly on important issues such as puppy smuggling and grown influence and impact on the international stage. But we know there’s so much more to do. There are still millions of dogs - and people who love dogs - around the world who need support.
We are reliant on voluntary donations in order to continue our work. As part of this, Dogs Trust receives donations from corporate partners, charitable trusts/foundations and wealthy individuals (major donors) and there is huge potential to increase funds from these sources significantly in order to continue the expansion of our work.
We are seeking a fundraiser who relishes the excitement of exceeding income targets, developing strong relationships and working with existing corporate partners to ensure that all commitments are delivered, whilst identifying opportunities to increase the value of these long-standing relationships. You will be responsible for account management of a number of our existing corporate relationships and will help in the development of the charity's partnerships strategy.
If you are a real team player with a proven track record in delivering exceptional account management, always meeting targets, as well as having excellent communication and relationship building skills, along with a tenacious approach, then we’d love to hear from you.
Please note that in this role you will split time between home-working and our London office in line with our agile working policy.
In return for all of this, we have a comprehensive benefits package, which includes excellent annual leave, perkbox and pension allowances, and you will you join a team of highly professional and driven colleagues in a brilliant upbeat and collaborative environment, all with a genuine passion for dog welfare.
