Exciting job opportunity! Are you looking for a partnership development role that directly contributes to the betterment of society? To work alongside globally respected experts in diverse subjects such as data science, climate change, sociology, marketing, geography, economics, or politics? To be part of a forward-thinking community where assumptions are challenged, and new ideas encouraged?

The LSE’s Philanthropy and Global Engagement (PAGE) division seek a Senior Corporate Engagement Manager, a key member of the division responsible for developing and overseeing the School’s relations with businesses and external third parties (public sector and not-for-profits), both in the UK and internationally.

Your focus will be on driving new relationships with organisations, especially in new geographical territories such as EMEA, and in new sectors such as AI and advanced manufacturing, as well as working closely with senior stakeholders within the School to increase philanthropic opportunities and facilitate delivery.

You will have experience of developing projects and negotiating financial proposals with corporate and business partners. You will understand the nature of corporate partnerships with large academic, not-for-profit or public sector institutions. You should also have experience of working in a complex organisation, and be able to work within its internal regulatory framework (financial, legal, ethical etc.).

It would be beneficial if you have knowledge of, and networks in, the AI and tech and/or advanced manufacturing sectors, and/or in growth markets in EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa). However, more important is your attitude, your skills and your ability to turn an idea into a funded partnership.

We offer an occupational pension scheme, generous annual leave and School closure days, hybrid working, and excellent training and development opportunities.
