**Please note: Hybrid (1dpw, flexible) with hospice presence (Birmingham)**

Supporting over 750 children and nearly 1,000 families annually, Acorns Children’s Hospice is a vital lifeline for families across the West Midlands and Gloucestershire during unimaginably difficult times.

Palliative care for children aged 0–18 is delivered at Acorns’ hospices in Birmingham (serving Birmingham and Warwickshire), Worcester (serving Herefordshire, Worcestershire, and Gloucestershire), and Walsall (serving the Black Country and parts of Staffordshire and Shropshire), as well as in family homes and other community settings.

Corporate fundraising at Acorns is on an exciting growth journey, with ambitions to increase income from £800K to £1M in the next two years. The team is known for its creativity and drive, and the charity has built strong partnerships with high-profile brands including Aston Villa FC, Pinsent Masons, and Tippers.

• Take an active role in planning and delivering key corporate events, such as golf days and black-tie dinners
• Contribute to cultivation plans for senior leaders within corporate partners
• Use data and insight to report on progress and inform partnership development

Ideal skills and experience:

• Confident steward and communicator, able to build rapport and deliver excellent supporter journeys
• Strategic thinker with a flair for finding growth opportunities within existing partnerships
• Comfortable pitching and presenting to corporate audiences at all levels
• Excellent organiser who can juggle competing priorities, meet deadlines, and maintain attention to detail
• Willingness to work out-of-hours at events and maintain regular hospice presence
• Dynamic, creative, and solutions-focused, with a collaborative mindset and passion for Acorns’ mission

Benefits include:

• 27 days annual leave plus bank holidays (5 days holiday buyback scheme starting from April 2026)

About Us

Formed in 2021, the School Partnerships Alliance (S.P.A.) is an independent, non-politically aligned membership and delivery organisation which supports and promotes impactful, sustainable and mutually beneficial cross-sector school partnerships. We promote and develop best practice, commission research, provide training and offer a wide range of partnership brokering and audit support. We wholeheartedly support the delivery of the strongest pupil outcomes for all children and our national programmes and initiatives are informed by research and experience and driven by impact. 

The S.P.A.’s ambition is to become the leading, evidence-led, trusted voice on school partnerships in the UK. Working as a force for school improvement, our vision is for independent-maintained school partnership work to embed itself into the fabric of the national school system; one which is both self-improving and sustainable. We work to enrich both public and policymaker understanding of the benefits of cross-sector school partnerships through research, targeted initiatives and impact analysis.

Our long-term goal is for all UK schools to partner in some form, to improve both their own and their partner schools’ performance and deliver benefits to all pupils, particularly those attending schools in under-resourced areas. We want to work with a wide range of organisations and individuals who share our vision for a fairer future for all children and build a national strategy for school partnerships. A future where all schools work together for meaningful, mutual benefit to support the educational and emotional needs and aspirations of the next generation.
