Home-Start Edinburgh is looking for a relationship-driven, proactive and commercially minded Corporate Partnerships Manager to help grow income and impact through businesses across Edinburgh.

This is an exciting opportunity to build and shape a corporate partnerships function with real scope to influence how the role develops. We are looking for someone who can identify opportunities, open doors, build trust and convert conversations into meaningful support for families with young children.

The role will focus strongly on new business: building a robust pipeline, developing compelling propositions, securing new supporters and leading the rollout of our Friends of Edinburgh scheme as an accessible route for local businesses to get involved. Over time, as new partners come on board, the role will also grow into a broader account management and partnership growth portfolio.

About Home-Start Edinburgh

Home-Start Edinburgh supports families with young children through challenging times. Through compassionate, non-judgemental support, we help parents build confidence, strengthen relationships and create more stable foundations for family life.

We want more businesses in Edinburgh to feel connected to that mission - not simply as donors, but as local partners helping families in their own city. This role will be central to making that happen.

What you will do

• Develop and deliver a practical corporate partnerships plan focused on new income growth.
• Build and manage a strong pipeline of prospects across Edinburgh’s business community.
• Create and pitch compelling partnership opportunities for businesses of different sizes and types.
• Lead the development and rollout of Friends of Edinburgh as part of our wider new business approach.
• Secure new support through partnerships, sponsorship, employee fundraising, volunteering, events, gifts in kind and other relevant routes.
• Build excellent relationships with supporters and, over time, help grow and deepen those partnerships.

Who we are looking for

• Someone with experience in corporate fundraising, business development, sales, account management, sponsorship or partnerships.
• Someone who is confident building relationships externally and can combine warmth, credibility and persistence.
• Someone who enjoys creating opportunities from scratch and is comfortable working strategically as well as hands-on.
• Someone who can write and speak persuasively, tailor approaches to different audiences and keep momentum in a varied pipeline.
• Someone who is motivated by purpose and excited by the chance to help shape a growing area of work.

You do not need to come from the charity sector to apply.

We know excellent partnership-builders can come from a range of backgrounds. If you have experience winning business, managing clients, developing sponsorship or building commercial relationships - and you are motivated by the chance to use those skills for a strong local cause - we would love to hear from you.

Why join us

• A genuine opportunity to build and shape this area of work.
• Flexible working of 20 hours per week.
• A values-led organisation making a visible difference to families in Edinburgh.
• A role that combines autonomy, creativity, relationship-building and social impact.
• The chance to create something sustainable and locally rooted.

Terms

• Salary: £38,000 FTE, pro rata for 20 hours per week.
• Location: Edinburgh / hybrid, with local travel for meetings and events.
• This post is subject to Home-Start Edinburgh’s safer recruitment processes.

Are you looking for a role where your work really matters?

Are you someone who enjoys keeping things organised and making sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes? Do you like variety in your day, balancing administration, finance and customer support while working with people from all walks of life? Are you looking for a role where your work genuinely makes a difference to people in your community?

If that sounds like you, this could be the perfect opportunity.

At Fresh Start, you will be part of a charity that supports people moving on from homelessness and those at risk of homelessness across Edinburgh. Through practical support, essential household goods, and community services, you will help people build a new beginning and create a more stable future.

As our Admin & Finance Assistant, you will play a key role in keeping the organisation running effectively every day. You will often be the first point of contact for volunteers, donors, service users, partner organisations, and businesses, so you will need to be approachable, organised and confident communicating with different people.

You will spend your days responding to calls and emails, processing referrals, maintaining databases, organising paperwork, supporting meetings and events and helping manage diaries and schedules. You will also support fundraising activities and work closely with colleagues across the organisation to ensure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes.

You will also support the finance side of the organisation using Xero software. This includes reconciling bank accounts and petty cash, processing invoices and transactions, tracking Gift Aid donations, helping with weekly banking and supporting the management of outstanding payments. If you enjoy working accurately, staying organised, and keeping on top of details, you will thrive in this part of the role.

This role would suit you if youʼre proactive, adaptable, and comfortable managing multiple priorities in a busy environment. You will be someone who can work independently, use your initiative, and step in to support wherever needed while still being a strong team player.

You will ideally have previous administration or reception experience, strong IT skills, and excellent communication skills. Experience using finance software such as Xero would be beneficial, along with previous experience in a finance assistant role. An understanding of the voluntary sector and empathy with issues relating to homelessness and poverty would also be highly valued. In return, you will join a supportive and passionate team where your work has a direct impact on people’s lives. You will receive a salary of £26,198-£30,095

What can you expect from us?

• 29 days annual leave (pro rata) plus 6 days public holidays
• Christmas and New Year closure (with allocated annual leave)
• Supportive team environment
• A role with clear, practical impact

Fresh Start is an Edinburgh-based charity supporting people moving on from homelessness to make a home for themselves with dignity. Since 1999, we have provided practical household essentials, skills support, food support, and community-based services that help people settle into their new homes and build stability, confidence, and connection.

Our work is led by the values of Respect, Collaboration, and Empowerment, and everything we do is designed to support people at a critical point in their lives and help create lasting positive change.
