The Opportunity
We are at an exciting growth phase with ambitions to scale nationally. To achieve this, we need to capture and share the positive impact we have on people's lives.
As the Impact and Fundraising Manager, you will work hands on with our delivery team to design data collection systems that feel manageable and purposeful, not burdensome. You understand that different people think, process, and work in different ways, so you will create multiple methods for collecting the same data to suit different styles.
You take a methodical approach to understanding what data we need to showcase impact, then build the frameworks and provide the practical support to make collection happen across multiple methods. You empower the team to grow their confidence in impact measurement through training, clear guidance, and being there alongside them.
You will translate the data we collect into compelling, heartfelt stories that position The Mason Foundation as best practice. You will engage with traditional media and sector publications to showcase our work and support the COO with fundraising by providing the impact evidence that inspires funders and commissioners to collaborate with us.
What We're Looking For
• Methodical approach to collecting data across multiple different methods, understanding what needs to be collected to showcase impact without being burdensome
• Hands on experience supporting frontline teams with data and impact collection, building their confidence and skills
• Ability to design multiple ways of collecting a uniform dataset, recognizing different thinking, processing, and working styles
• Strong storyteller who can make data heartfelt and human whilst maintaining evidence-based rigour
• Experience with traditional media engagement (press releases, media relations) and writing for sector publications
• Understanding of neuroinclusion, community development, or social impact landscapes
• Experience working with CRM systems and ability to lead exploration of accessible data tools
• Empathetic, supportive, highly organised, and self-motivated with ability to work part time hours efficiently in a remote environment
Why Join Us
In return, you get to work for an ambitious, values driven charity making a real difference in the lives of neurodivergent young people. You will have the flexibility of remote working with a flexible working pattern, 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (pro rata), opportunities to shape our impact story and professional development, and the chance to be part of a neuroinclusive workplace culture where everyone's contributions matter.
