Summary
Family Fund supports families raising disabled and seriously ill children. Family Fund Business Services (FFBS) was established in 2013 as a social enterprise and wholly owned subsidiary of Family Fund, to generate additional, unrestricted funding for the charity.
Now FFBS works in partnership with over 60 charities, local authorities, housing providers and other organisations to make distributing practical support to people in need efficient and hassle-free. But to make more of a difference, we need to grow our business – and that’s where our BD team comes in.
The role
As Business Development Co-ordinator, you will proactively research, identify and help to secure new business opportunities across existing and new sectors.
This role works collaboratively across the FFBS Business Development team to support research activity, assisting with the analysis of wider Group projects to provide evidence for successful change, as well as providing key administrative support.
If you join us, you’ll be:
Supporting with the co-ordination of sales activities and schedules, working closely with the Communications and marketing team on business development activities.
Following up new customer leads, support with the production of proposals and other sales collateral, as well as monthly and quarterly reports.
Supporting with research of new sectors and verticals.
Leading on the co-ordination of exhibitions and managing all aspects of planning and show itineraries.
About you
For this role you must have experience of working collaboratively across teams, managing multiple work streams and competing priorities. Ideally, you will have worked in the voluntary or statutory sectors.
You will be able to learn quickly, be able to engage professionally and positively with a wide range of stakeholders and have excellent time management skills. You will have strong research and analytical skills and be computer literate, with excellent MS Office skills.
We’re looking for someone who can be flexible and adaptable to work demands and who is self-motivated, and results driven.
Most importantly you must be engaging, believe in the change that Family Fund is trying to bring about, and be a team player. If you bring the personality, we can train you in the skills needed (although if you are already a sales ninja, then that’s great too!)
