ABOUT THE ECONOMIST FOUNDATION

We are a fast-growing charity that uses the journalistic expertise at The Economist newspaper to give young people the skills to think for themselves about current affairs.

What we do: We enable inspiring discussions about the news in classrooms and between schools in different communities.

Why we do it: Taking part in these discussions develops young people’s critical thinking skills, communication skills, confidence and knowledge of current affairs. These capabilities can help to change a young person’s life. They’re essential for working out the truth in the face of misinformation, one-sided debates and missing context in the media. They’re also hugely important for succeeding in school, employment and beyond. Our priority is to work with disadvantaged and marginalised young people who have fewer opportunities to develop these ‘news literacy’ competencies even though they have the most to gain from them.

Our impact: See the difference that our work makes here: BNC Impact | Burnet News Club

Our story so far: The Foundation was set up by our Chief Executive from inside The Economist in 2012. Since then, our core programme has achieved national scale and is running in over 80 schools across the UK, reaching 2000 young people every week. We are actively engaged with the ‘news literacy’ community, speaking at events internationally and giving input to the Fair Education Alliance, News Literacy Network and parliamentary inquiries. This year we were named by Escape the City as one of the top 100 places to work to make a difference, and we were recognised by HundrED as one of the top 100 education innovations globally.

Our plans: News literacy – the ability to think critically and communicate confidently about the news – is increasingly seen as a priority in education, business and politics. We're very excited about the opportunity this presents to grow our impact, and we have ambitious plans to do this in the coming two years including doubling the reach of our core programme, the Burnet News Club. This role is essential for delivering our growth plans.

ENJOY THE ADVANTAGES OF A SMALL, FRIENDLY CHARITY WITHIN A LARGER BUSINESS

The Economist Foundation is an independent charity that sits within The Economist but also works quite separately.

As we’re a small organisation, everyone plays a significant role in our work and deciding our plans for the future. We’re an informal and very friendly team. We make each other lots of cups of tea and we like finding excuses for social activities. We work hard but also flexibly, and some of us use that flexibility to be involved with other projects outside of work such as volunteering.

The Foundation was named by Escape the City as one of The Escape 100: Best Companies to Escape to in 2019.

At the same time, we have the advantages of a larger company. There are excellent benefits at The Economist Group, including a very good pension plan (the company will contribute up to 11%), private medical insurance, gym discounts and much more. There are plenty of opportunities to learn from the expertise in the company. There is a formal mentoring scheme and a good training programme, and the Foundation works closely with senior colleagues in the editorial team as well as many other parts of the business.

We’re supported by a global media brand which is becoming ever more valued in an uncertain world.

 
DIVERSITY

We welcome applications from candidates from all backgrounds. We know that diversity within an organisation makes it stronger. And we know that maximising our impact depends on reaching and supporting young people, and teachers, from all backgrounds. So we deeply value diversity in all respects, including age, cultural identity, race, colour, ethnic origin, national origin, gender, religious beliefs, disability, class or sexual orientation. We are passionate about continually improving our understanding of barriers to diversity and inclusion, and finding ways to overcome these in everything we do.

• 25 hours per week
• Hours worked over 5 days with some flexibility
• Comprehensive administration experience
• Excellent organisational and communication skills
• Confident, personable manner
• Confidence and proficiency in the Microsoft software packages is essential
• Ability to work flexibly with a degree of independence
• Based in Leatherhead Surrey with free car parking

£13,332 p.a. pro-rated (FTE £18,655 p.a. based on 35 hour week)

In this busy and rewarding role you will need to be flexible and confident in making decisions and using your own initiative, in a friendly and cheerful environment. You will take the lead in administering the organisation as part of a small committed team, including Speech and Language Therapists, support staff and volunteers, all of whom are dedicated to delivering a high quality service to our beneficiaries. You will be in regular contact with vulnerable, disabled adults and their families and play an important front-of-house role, so empathy, patience and a sense of humour are essential.

The successful candidate will be required to supervise our Front of House team (3x student staff members that work on a part-time basis) and develop them to provide the best customer service that leaves a positive impression of the Union every time.

This is an exciting role for an energetic, organised candidate with a drive to deliver excellence and build a strong and collaborative culture within the organisation. We've recently gone through a restructure, so we're looking for someone that is happy to get stuck in and improve our internal processes to enable the success of the entire organisation.
