Making The Leap is an innovative social justice charity that aims to make a big difference. From direct delivery, to advocacy and leadership, we refuse to stay in our lane and believe passionately that those we exist to serve have the right to be anything they want to be. To say that this is an exciting time for the organisation would be an understatement, as our incredible funders, donors, partners and supporters have given us the chance to move to the next level, and have further influence and delivery nationally.

The shared soul of the organisation is to be passionate about helping young people from less-advantaged backgrounds; build up other charities and community groups and want to partner with them or support them; want to work with businesses and organisations to get things done; and care deeply about addressing racial inequity.

The organisation has two pillars: Programmes – which is direct delivery to young people from less-advantaged socioeconomic backgrounds to raise their aspirations and increase their access to opportunities, and Leadership and Advocacy -  which covers the UK Social Mobility Awards; the Social Mobility Podcast, the Social Mobility List, our research function and a number of strands: core Making The Leap, your remit would be directly with the first three strands and  your team will be responsible for generating the income for core Making The Leap.

Role overview:

As a member of MTL’s senior management team, you will take responsibility for the organisation’s growth and outward facing initiatives. You will lead and manage the organisation’s portfolio of social mobility leadership strands, and develop strong working relationships with key stakeholders. You will provide dynamic day-to-day leadership for the MTL’s directorate responsible for income generation, impact, research, communications and policy, and ensure the organisation continues to be an exemplar of innovation, integrity and collaboration. You will also be contributing to, implementing and monitoring delivery of the organisation’s strategic plan.

Hope Health Action (HHA) is a Christian NGO passionate about providing life-saving health and disability care for the world’s most vulnerable. We work in Haiti, South Sudan, and Uganda, partnering with local communities to deliver sustainable, long-term solutions in challenging contexts.

In recent years, our fundraising potential has grown significantly – with new partnerships, global awards, and high-profile fundraising campaigns enabling our projects to expand and our impact to deepen. As our work grows, so too does the need to ensure our storytelling and communications reflect this momentum: that we’re stewarding partnerships well, communicating the life-changing impact of our programmes, and telling powerful stories that enable us to engage new audiences and sustain future growth. 

We believe in the power of authentic, ethical storytelling to inspire change. That’s why we’re looking for a passionate, creative and detail-oriented individual to join our team – someone who can strengthen the way we capture, communicate, and demonstrate impact across all of our work. Your responsibilities would be to:

1. Collect and Curate Impact Content
   Gather stories, photos, and monitoring data from programme teams to showcase HHA’s impact, ensuring ethical and consistent storytelling across all content.

2. Produce Donor Reports and Campaign Materials
   Write and design compelling reports and updates for funders, foundations, and supporters – translating data and stories into powerful narratives.

3. Lead Digital Communications
   Manage HHA’s social media, website, email newsletters, and supporter communications to engage diverse audiences and grow HHA’s reach. 

If you can bring a balance of analytical thinking and hands-on creativity, and will be deeply motivated by the opportunity to amplify the voices of those HHA serves, we'd love to hear from you.
