At the end of each programme, a celebratory School Final is held at each school, where teams representing each class deliver presentations about their projects.

About the organisation:

Our client is the largest charity dedicated to kidney research in the UK. Their vision is to free lives from kidney disease.

They fund research into all aspects of kidney disease - from understanding the condition, to how they can prevent and treat it. They want to discover better, kinder treatments.

Research has given us life-saving kidney transplants, dialysis machines that filter the blood when the kidneys fail, and drugs to keep us going. But these treatments come at a cost. They can be gruelling, confining, relentless. A transplant is not a cure, they rarely last a lifetime.

Kidney disease still affects three million people in the UK. And one million of those don’t know they are at risk. That’s three million people who are someone’s parents, grandparents, children, friends.

And kidney failure is rising, as are the factors contributing to it, such as diabetes and obesity.

That’s why their work is more essential than ever.

Research is what they do. It is the only way to discover future preventions, treatments and cures. It is vital to keep their loved ones safe. Your support is crucial to make this happen.

They're here to be heard, to make a difference, to change the future. Kidney disease ends here.

About us
Our vision is to ensure that the 99,000 children and young people with life-shortening conditions in the UK have lives that are as fulfilling as possible.

Unfortunately, more and more families are suffering through their family’s short life and they are suffering alone.

Together for Short Lives cannot save a child’s life but we can save a family from a lifetime of suffering.

We work with families and the brilliant people and services that support them in hospitals, in children’s hospices and in the community – to ensure no family has to suffer through their child’s short life alone and can instead treasure every moment they have together.

About the role
We are recruiting for a Corporate Partnerships Manager to join our Fundraising team. The Corporate Partnerships Team manage partnerships with nationwide, high profile companies that raise vital funds for our direct work with families, and on behalf of the UK’s 54 children’s hospices, many of whom are currently pushed to their limits.

Part of a small team, you will manage and develop a portfolio of long-term relationships with a select group of strategically important corporate partners, including three household names. These award-winning partnerships raise significant income for Together for Short Lives – as such you’ll be an outstanding account manager, excited to lead on projects from the get-go and motivated to achieve success on behalf of the children and families we support.

We have recently developed a new fundraising strategy, a new fundraising brand and secured investment to develop our corporate fundraising. Our ambition is to grow our corporate support and secure more strategic partnerships, both long-term and high value. The Corporate Partnerships Manager will play a vital role in ensuring that both current and new partners are passionate about fundraising, committed to changing children’s lives, and aware of how incredibly valuable their support is.

We are reasonably flexible on location. Ideally you will be able to spend two days a week in Bristol with the team; as the Corporate Partnerships Manager looks after relationships with nationwide companies, a willingness to travel across the UK is required. What is crucial is that you have the experience, knowledge and above all the desire to deliver outstanding partnerships that will raise significant income and help ensure all children and families get the support they need.

To discuss this role further or to make arrangements for an informal chat with Lucy Crisp, Head of Corporate Partnerships, please contact our recruitment team via our  website.

We work in 79 developing countries, saving lives in emergencies and finding long-term solutions to poverty for millions of people every year. We put women and girls in the centre because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights and opportunities. We believe strongly that business has an important role to play in creating opportunities and reducing barriers for people living in poverty and would like to invite you to be a part of making this change happen.
