About Impetus
At Impetus, our focus is on helping young people achieve positive education and employment outcomes to increase their chance of leading fulfilling and successful lives, irrespective of their background.
We tackle the three most difficult challenges that affect a young person’s ability to succeed in life in Britain today:

Harris Hill is thrilled to partner with Christian Aid, to hire their new Digital Performance Advisor, to work in either London, Cardiff, Edinburgh or Warrington. The Digital Performance Advisor will be the driving force behind understanding and improving their online performance. This role is central to how they use data and insight to make impactful decisions across digital, fundraising, campaigning and supporter engagement.
This is a specialist analyst role and the organisation’s subject matter expert in Google Analytics 4 (GA4).
Your essential skills and experience:
- Proven expertise in digital analysis and insight, with experience producing data-driven reports and actionable recommendations
- Experience working for a charity or non-profit
- Advanced GA4 knowledge, including funnels, segmentation, lifecycle reporting and (where relevant) e-commerce tracking. Strong understanding of the transition from Universal Analytics (GA3) to GA4 and its implications

- Built, not starting from scratch: GA4 is already implemented, giving you a strong foundation to improve structure, governance and reporting, and to unlock deeper value from existing data.
Do you want a voice at the table? Your analysis will directly inform strategic decisions, helping colleagues across the organisation understand users, test improvements and optimise digital experiences.
