There is one position available however we are reviewing applications on a rolling basis, all applications will receive a response.

Founded in 1963, we operate as an independent charity with a vision to make a real difference to people’s lives by improving the quality of mathematics education and learning.

We have always had a well-established and well-respected board, and in the last twelve months we have recruited several new board members to support MEI’s continued development through their wisdom, passion, and expertise. We are a friendly, supportive, and very committed team. MEI’s head office is in Trowbridge, in beautiful Wiltshire. Our team of mathematics education experts works from home, spread across England. Our dedicated staff of around 70 employees and our 10 board members make effective use of online technology to collaborate – never more so than this year.

MEI’s origins were in working to ensure mathematics education was relevant to equipping people to use mathematics effectively in their everyday lives and work. Much has changed in society since MEI was founded and mathematics education has never been more important. Our commitment to make a positive difference to people’s lives through mathematics education and learning remains as strong as ever.

Our links with students have generally been through their teachers, but the rapid changes in society and the way that people engage with knowledge and learning mean that we need to deepen our understanding of the needs and perspectives of students. The young trustee role is a new role on the MEI board that will help us to do this. It is only one part of a number of activities with this aim. We would expect the young trustee to help support these developments.

The Board of Trustees is looking forward to having a young trustee within our team, and benefiting from the contributions and experience of the successful candidate. This will not be a ‘token’ position. The successful candidate will have the same influence, responsibilities, and liabilities as any other trustee. In turn, we commit to provide the support, training and development that you, and indeed all new trustees, need to undertake this role. As our pioneer young trustee, you will be able to help us shape the role and the way we work so that we harness your experience and wisdom at a critical stage as we drive forward our developing ambitions for the future.

If you think you have what it takes to bring a new perspective, and you are passionate about the development of the next generation, we would love to have you on board

To increase the impact of our already highly effective work with vulnerable children, Viva is seeking a Junior Systems Developer to join our dynamic, international team. In this exciting new role you will work closely with the CEO and colleagues around the world to help Viva develop systems to be used throughout the organisation.  

Your first project will be to develop a system that enables global staff to share learning materials and promotes effective interaction through training courses, tests and chat rooms. For this project and forthcoming ones, you will document solutions clearly and concisely so that they are capable of being maintained by others in the future. 

Our default approach is to build from existing Microsoft technologies (Teams, PowerApps, Sharepoint, Dynamics CRM, Common Data Service) rather than code from scratch. 

You will have strong problem-solving skills and will be able to communicate clearly both in writing and verbally. A team player, you will be able to test and modify solutions in conversation with members of the global team, staying calm under pressure. 

You will have an eye for detail and will be able to keep up to date with fast-changing trends in systems development. 

Demonstrable experience in application development will be essential along with experience in documenting solutions. 

Although the initial appointment is for three months the hope is that we will secure funding to extend the contract. 

Your input will help to make a real impact on our work with vulnerable children worldwide – by helping us scale up our projects and the difference they make in changing more children’s lives so we can fulfil their God-given potential.

Key responsibilities: 

1. Work with internal customers to define the specifications (inputs/outputs/outcomes) for processes that we have decided would benefit from software development 
2. Choose products/frameworks to use to implement solutions 
3. Implement solutions 
4. Keep up to date with Microsoft technologies and systems in similar NGOs

This is a full or part-time position based at our office in Oxford, or from home, with a salary of £20,000 pro rata for an initial three-month contract.
