95% of young people do not actively engage with Church.

Our amazing volunteer leaders gather young people and children together with brilliant weekly Groups, an exciting Christian programme, wonderful Camps, Residentials and Overseas Adventures. Tens of thousands of children and young people have been loved, discipled and launched into the world to make a difference for Jesus Christ through Crusaders and Urban Saints.

None of this will be possible without a growing number of partners and supporters who are inspired to commit to pray, advocate, volunteer and finance the mission to the young people of the nation.

The Partnership Development Coordinator is a new role required from April 2019. In this role, you will rekindle contact and support from the hundreds of thousands of people who have benefited from Urban Saints in the past (previously known as Crusaders), whilst developing new partnerships with major donors, Trusts and supporters.

These partnerships are key to building the momentum, prayer, advocacy, volunteer support and finance that will help us to fulfil the vision. Our fundraising strategy targets an increase from the current £1.0m to £2.6m per annum over the next three years.

In addition, the Partnership Development Coordinator will take responsibility for the contact and marketing aspects of our Supporter Database - developing a deep understanding of our supporters' interests and preparing well-targeted contact files for our communications in print, by email and social media.

In return, we offer excellent benefits including:

  • 25 days' holiday plus eight bank holidays (pro rata)
  • Pension scheme – we contribute 6% to the Urban Saints pension scheme
  • Life assurance
  • Flexible working (hours and location) to optimise your work/life balance
  • Volunteering days  

Please note, we will consider a job share for this appointment.
