Data and Performance Manager
Home based with frequent travel to Head Office and Family Action services
37 hours per week (full-time)
The post-holder will be expected to work flexibly to meet the needs of Family Action
Grade 4 (upper) point 34-38: £40,107– £ 44,009 per annum + £480 homeworking allowance per annum
Permanent Contract
Are you a highly motivated self-starter with excellent communication skills? Do you want to be part of an award winning organisation that makes a difference? If so, Family Action has an exciting opportunity and would love to hear from you.
At Family Action we transform lives by providing practical, emotional and financial support to those who are experiencing poverty, disadvantage and social isolation. We have been building stronger families since 1869 and today we work with more than 60,000 families in over 150 community based services, as well as supporting thousands more through national programmes and grants.
As the Data and Performance Manager you would lead on a range of work areas for the organisation. From visiting any one of our 190+ settings, helping staff and managers to gain improved insights from data, to supporting training delivery or drafting analytical performance reports for Board members and colleagues, no two days would be the same.
We are looking for a dynamic individual with substantial experience in the field of data and performance management, including complex data analysis within services for children and families. Someone who can examine the detail and bring it life through clearly articulated reasoning, whilst also seeing the big picture and the context of why performance is good or needs to be improved.
Family Action is on a journey to become more insight driven within management and decision making, both within services at centrally. An important part of this role is to ensure that services have the data and insights they need to see risk and act on it swiftly, identify areas requiring attention or improvement and to celebrate and build on what we do well. Building data solutions for services is a big part of the role; as well as considering the data and how the organisation needs to see the picture.
Your role would be pivotal in identifying lines of enquiry that require careful follow up via audit and case reviews. So right from the off, you would be helping us to provide the best possible services for families, keep people safe, learn more about our services and understand what staff and managers need.
We require someone with substantial experience of working with a broad range of data related to services for people. You therefore need to have a good working knowledge of different services for children and adults, relevant legislation, national policy and the work of regulators and inspectorates. Expertise and experience in defining data requirements and developing new business systems to meet those requirements is also essential.
Most of all we want someone who reflects who we are as an organisation: forward looking, with a commitment to the people we work with and continuously improving our services. We are a people focused, can-do organisation that strives for excellence and operates with mutual respect. If you share these values and behaviours and have the necessary skills and experience, then we look forward to hearing from you.
We are committed to Equality, Diversity & Inclusion in all that we do and welcome applications from all sections of the community. We particularly welcome applications from Black, Asian and minority ethnic candidates, LGBTQIA+ candidates and candidates with disabilities because we are committed to increasing the representation of these groups at Family Action. We know that greater diversity will lead to even greater results for families and children and strive for our workforce to be truly representative of the diverse communities we support. We offer a guaranteed interview scheme for disabled applicants and will reimburse your travel cost if you attend an interview.
What will we offer you?
We’ll offer you a generous pension scheme and leave entitlements, eye care vouchers, a cycle to work scheme and other great benefits. We are happy to talk flexible working. All roles in Family Action are open to a discussion about possible flexible working options, subject to business needs, and all new starters will have the right to make a flexible working request from day one of employment. We have an excellent wellbeing offer and we will invest in your professional development with on-going quality training and career development opportunities. You’ll join an established, supportive and high-performing service and have the opportunity to thrive in an innovative organisation that values your opinion, encourages learning and has the needs of children and families at its core.
We are forward looking, ambitious and committed to continuous improvement. We are a people focused, can-do organisation, which strives for excellence in all we do and operates with mutual respect. If you share these values and behaviours and have the necessary skills then we look forward to hearing from you.

People with albinism are being marginalised, mutilated and murdered across Africa simply for the colour of their skin. Join Standing Voice to defend people with albinism against this horrific discrimination and violence.
About Standing Voice
Standing Voice (SV) is the leading human rights charity promoting people with albinism’s right to full participation in society and well-being across Africa.
Albinism is a genetically inherited condition resulting in melanin deficiency. Due to misguided beliefs about the condition, people with albinism commonly experience social exclusion and abuse, with over 800 violent atrocities reported across Africa since records began. This social rejection adds to the vision and skin health challenges experienced by this group. SV has registered offices in the UK (London), Tanzania (Mwanza) and Malawi (Lilongwe). We work holistically across our dermatology, vision, psychosocial wellbeing & security and livelihoods programmes to offer a wide range of support to this marginalised group. We have over 8,000 registered service users across both countries of operation, and regularly collect detailed project data using our Commcare database. Our work is informed by evidence-based participatory research, conducted with our beneficiaries and their wider communities for over 15 years. We receive funding from individual givers, trusts & foundations and multilateral agencies including the UN to develop innovative projects that achieve well-evidenced social impact.
About The Role
Standing Voice is looking for a dynamic and driven data management professional to join our team as Data Manager in the UK office. This is an exciting and challenging role in a creative and focused working environment, within an organisation with multiple programmes and funding streams across 3 countries. This position suits an ambitious professional with the right skills and confidence to lead on all aspects of data management for a leading human rights charity. This role also has a strong monitoring and evaluation component; the Data Manager will make use of data findings to monitor and evaluate project impact.
The successful candidate will report to the Executive Director and be tasked with ensuring the charity’s data collection tools are running to an exceptional standard and in depth data analysis is being conducted on a regular basis. The Data Manager will work directly with our teams in Tanzania and Malawi supporting data collection in the field, delivering training and mentorship to staff, and resolving any issues with their data handling and collection tools. This aspect of the role shall be undertaken remotely and in person during country visits when required.
The successful candidate will also lead on bringing the impact of Standing Voice’s work to life through funder and impact reports, supporting fundraising, managing research projects and handling external communications relating to the organisation’s impact and reach. Through doing so the Data Manager will raise the profile of Standing Voice’s work on the global stage at UN events and symposiums. In addition, the Data Manager will work with executive management to communicate the impact of Standing Voice’s work to trustees, funders and supporters.
Suitable candidates will demonstrate a high level of organisation and accuracy in their work and should be highly experienced in designing and building data capture tools, conducting in depth analysis of data sets and bringing this data to life visually. The candidate should be experienced in using data collection and visualisation software such as Commcare and Tableau.
The successful candidate must have excellent communication skills (and ability to clearly present and communicate data and impact to staff, partners and donors); a strong motivation for career development and learning; and a genuine interest in using their technical skills and passion for data, monitoring and evaluation to impact positively on the lives of the individuals we work with. The Data Manager will occasionally travel to Africa for scheduled training for our implementation teams. The role may also involve travel to meet funders or partners around the world. This role will therefore suit candidates interested in travel opportunities.
This role should appeal to individuals who have a genuine passion for human rights; working with data to improve health outcomes for severely marginalised communities; a commitment to using that expertise to achieve a positive and lasting social impact; and a drive for professional development. Joining our team as Data Manager offers a chance to achieve tangible social change through deploying data, monitoring and evaluation expertise in a vibrant and dynamic working environment.
