The Sutton Trust is the UK’s leading foundation dedicated to improving social mobility. Founded by Sir Peter Lampl in 1997, the Trust delivers programmes to 7,000 young people each year across the country, rigorous research into the issues of low social mobility and educational disadvantage, and policy advocacy to affect systemic change. The Trust gives opportunities to young people from low and moderate-income backgrounds to improve their chances of accessing top universities and the professions. It seeks to ensure young people reach their potential, regardless of their background, school or where they live. 

The Senior Alumni Officer will sit within the Programmes team and will report to the Senior Programmes Manager: Alumni Engagement. The Sutton Trust’s alumni programme has been in development for four years and aims to develop a vibrant community of alumni who are offered ongoing support – from careers guidance to insights into different industries and the chance to access exclusive bursaries. In turn, alumni can give back to the Trust in a variety of ways – primarily through volunteering their time and expertise to help students or other alumni. A primary focus of building the community is to arm our alumni with a valuable network of peers they can utilise to help their future employment opportunities. In 2021 we have also introduced a new alumni online platform, and a range of new employability activity. The Senior Alumni Officer will play a central and alumni facing role in this work to establish a strong network of alumni, leading on the bulk of volunteering, and communication activities, as well as the data operations and relationship management required to support these functions. This role will also support the wider alumni and programmes team in running programmes and activities for alumni and ensuring a smooth transition from programme participant to active alum.
