About Agenda Alliance
We advocate and campaign for systems and services to respond appropriately to women and girls with unmet needs. We want public services to respond better to the distinct and multiple unmet needs of women and girls, including appropriately responding to gender, age, race and trauma.

Over the last 18 months, Parentkind has grown exponentially and repositioned itself as the voice, heart, and mind of all parents and guardians, as well as directly supporting schools and children.
This inspirational growth has come about through brilliant foresight, leadership and the dire need to support our beloved schools and their pupils.
Most recently, they concluded their most successful corporate partnerships campaign, with Asda raising over £5.8m for schools in its maiden year.
Another major national campaign, ‘No Cold Child,’ working with Fat Face, will distribute 10,000 winter coats to children who will go without this winter.
These two examples of great success will continue when the new Head of Corporate Partnerships joins. The foundations have been laid, and Parentkind’s network of PTAs (14,000) and schools (9,000) is growing, making It one of the most attractive propositions in the corporate market.
Who we are
As a national charity, Parentkind gives those with a parenting role a voice in education. They invest substantial resources in representing parents’ views on their child’s learning to local, regional, and national governments and agencies because evidence shows that parental participation in education benefits all children in all schools and society.
Parentkind is the UK’s network of PTA fundraisers. We provide specialist fundraising support and advice to parent volunteers so that every school can benefit from a successful PTA. Our 14,000 PTA members raise over £120+ million per year, placing us alongside some of the largest charities in the UK.
Who we are looking for
We seek instinctive, creative, and impressive senior corporate fundraisers who want to take advantage of the brilliant opportunity to create a high-performing and successful team at a growing national charity.
We are searching for high-calibre relationship builders with the tenacity, drive and charisma to create innovative and strategic partnerships that will bring immediate and lasting change to children and schools across the UK.
Ideal candidates will have experience securing six and seven-figure partnerships and will love the new business aspect of corporate fundraising.
