As a Consultant, you will manage a variety of evaluation, learning and co-design consultancy projects with charitable funders, charities, local authorities and public bodies. Our projects are varied but often include delivering: evaluations that involve primary and secondary data collection using mixed methods, analysis and impact measurement; learning partnerships with funders co-designing services with people with lived experience of social issues; developing accessible learning outputs for clients and stakeholders such as reports, case studies, blogs and presentations. We also provide strategic advice and learning partnerships that help organisations build a culture of learning and adaptation and we are known for engaging in large, complex place-based programmes of change.
You will play a key role in ensuring that projects are delivered to a high standard, on time and within budget. You will draw on your expertise in research methods, analysis, facilitation and project management to manage projects as part of multi-disciplinary teams. You will be the main point of contact for clients and ensure effective budget and resource management. Our project allocations are matched to your skills and interests wherever possible, providing room for professional development across sectors, themes and methodologies.
Alongside project delivery, you will contribute to business development by supporting proposal writing, relationship-building with prospective and existing clients and shaping new work aligned with our strategy.
Our client base includes organisations such as BBC Children in Need, Mission 44, Youth Endowment Fund, EY Foundation, Paul Hamlyn Foundation, City Bridge Foundation, the Mayor of London’s Office and various local authorities. We work across diverse policy areas including youth social action, prevention of violence, public health and education.
Recent and current projects illustrate the diversity of our work:
· Partnering with a national youth funder to shift power to youth organisations and Black-led groups with a focus on anti-racism and youth empowerment.
· Acting as learning partner for a foundation working with multi-academy trusts and charities to prevent school exclusions, supporting pilots and cross-sector learning.
· Building an evaluation framework for a foundation that is shifting its strategy from service delivery-focused to being systems change-focused.
Joining us as a Consultant is an excellent opportunity for someone who is curious, proactive and motivated by social impact. You will gain varied experience, deepen your expertise in research, evaluation and learning and contribute to addressing the root causes of social and economic exclusion across the UK.
