Income Generation Manager (Business Development Mgr/ Commercial Partnership Mgr)
This is a pivotal newly created role for the KFC Youth Foundation. The Income Generation Manager will contribute to the strategic direction and operational management of the charity. In addition to supporting the Foundation overall this will also extend to support our Youth Hub/s.
The Foundation receives no direct statutory funding and has historically, solely generated its income through its relationship with KFC as its corporate foundation. We have ambitious plans to diversify and extend our reach to help more young people, this requires diversification of funding. The post-holder will have overall responsibility for annual income and expenditure budgets for income generation.
Since its inception the KFC Youth Foundation has made donations and grants of more than £9m. In 2021 we became a community grant maker, offering grants of up to £2,500 to grass roots organisations working with young people in their communities. Organisations who share the passion we have for developing young people. Since setting up the programme we have made grants to a value of £351,570, supporting 10,271 young people.
But we aren’t ones to rest on our laurels and over the last 18 months we have been developing a strategy to transform ourselves into a service delivery organisation. It is our ambition to create KFC Youth Foundation Hubs; amazing spaces with awesome youth workers that allow young people who most need it, to feel safe and secure.
