Director of Corporate Partnerships

At United Way Space Coast, we don’t just raise funds, we mobilize entire communities to create real, lasting change in the areas of education, health, and financial stability. We’re looking for a strategic and mission-driven leader to serve as our Director of Corporate Partnerships, a high-impact role at the core of our organization.

This isn’t a back-office position. This is your chance to own and lead a vital department, shaping fundraising strategy, cultivating powerful partnerships, and fueling our mission. You’ll report directly to the President, serve on the leadership team, and guide a driven team while growing corporate engagement, sponsorships, and major gifts across the county.

What you’ll do

Your department is the fuel that powers our mission. As Director, you’ll own the strategy, lead the team, and drive community investment into our initiatives. If you’re a builder, connector, and bold communicator, this is your stage to elevate both our brand, and your own! Every day is going to look a little different, but you can expect the following:

Own the strategy and execution of our annual campaign and all corporate engagement efforts

Lead a team of 2-3 relationship managers providing coaching, accountability, and problem-solving support

Manage top donor accounts

Be the face of United Way at events, meetings, and throughout the community

Leverage CRM and donor insights to drive decisions and demonstrate impact

Launch new partnerships, deepen donor experiences, and contribute to long-term financial sustainability

Work alongside the leadership team and provide departmental updates often to our board of directors

What you need to thrive in this role

5+ years in fundraising, corporate partnerships, or sales (2+ years managing teams or strategies)

Proven record of hitting and exceeding fundraising goals

Exceptional communication and relationship-building skills with business and community leaders

Strategic mindset with comfort in public speaking and CRM tools

Willingness to travel locally often and work occasional evenings/weekends to attend events
