Growth & Business Development Manager

Own our outreach strategy - and help us unlock game-changing partnerships and investors.

The Village helps parents manage their children's health, offering instant, clinically backed answers to health concerns - and seamless same-day support from trusted professionals. As NHS delays grow and families face more pressure than ever, we're building a faster, smarter route to care that actually works for modern parents.

Now, we're looking for someone ambitious to design and lead our business development and fundraising outreach - working directly with our founder to open doors, build momentum, and scale our impact.

• Design and own our outbound strategy across three key audiences:
• Angel investors who back early-stage, purpose-driven startups
• VC firms investing in consumer tech, femtech, or family health
• B2B decision-makers at organisations where The Village could be a high-impact employee benefit

Write and send sharp, personalised email and LinkedIn outreach that cuts through the noise.
Track and manage outreach in a CRM (or even a well-organised spreadsheet).
Follow up to book meetings that matter.
Collaborate with the founder to refine pitches, messaging, and outreach materials.
Drive the top of our funnel - from first touch to confirmed meeting.

• A go-getter who's organised, proactive, and excited by the idea of turning cold outreach into warm opportunities.
• Strong written English and confidence writing to senior stakeholders.
• Comfortable working independently and owning projects from end to end.
• Bonus: experience with Notion, Airtable, Hubspot, or similar tools.

• Real ownership - this is not an admin role. You'll design and lead our outbound engine from day one.
• Direct access to the founder, with 1:1 mentorship and insight into startup fundraising and B2B sales.
• A front-row seat to what it takes to grow an early-stage startup.
• Strong resume value: We'll back you with a testimonial, reference, and LinkedIn endorsement.
