About Us

We Are Survivors is a survivor-focused voluntary sector organisation that aims to create and facilitate safe spaces for male (including trans and non-binary individuals) survivors of sexual harms across Greater Manchester, providing access to quality-assured support. Our work is focused on developing ways for individuals to empower themselves to work through personal and sometimes painful issues, guided and supported by our trauma-informed team, following the trauma and recovery model.

Our vision is to have “A society where NO male survivor is left behind”

About the Role

The Nightingale Navigator supports the loved ones of male survivors through the Nightingale Project. Recognising that sexual harm can affect partners, family members and others close to a survivor, the role provides therapeutic group and community-based support, alongside psychoeducation about trauma and its wider impact. This includes helping loved ones understand the criminal justice process and working with health, social care and other partner agencies to ensure they receive coordinated support. The Navigator also brings the experiences, needs and wishes of loved ones into the continued development of the Nightingale Project.

About You

You’ll be someone who understands that sexual harm can affect not only survivors, but also their partners, family members and other people close to them. You’ll be comfortable talking about trauma and able to provide compassionate, practical and non-judgmental support through group work, community activities and partnership working. Experience of supporting loved ones, delivering workshops or working within mental health, social care, advocacy or community services would be particularly helpful. We also recognise the value of transferable experience and welcome people who are committed to learning, building trusting relationships and helping loved ones feel less alone.

Why Join Us?

· a competitive salary.

· annual leave package with incremental rises plus bank holidays.

· company sick pay.

· Birthday annual leave.

· monthly clinical supervision.

· pension contribution.

· and a range of discount and benefit programmes.

Hours: Full time (32 hours per week)
Contract type: This is a fixed term role for 12 months

This exciting role will support the CRM team with data processes in our Beacon CRM fundraising database, as we look to integrate and automate more of our systems and processes. High-quality data will enable us to develop stronger relationships with our supporters, retention and maximise lifetime value working in an agile way.

What does the role involve?

• Manage data processes, imports and exports of all fundraising data including direct debits, new donors, email signups etc. in accordance with agreed protocols and in agreement with CRM Manager.

• Support the reconciliation of the bank statement with Beacon and ensure the Finance team know where to find information to enable accurate coding for management accounts.

Why is this position on a fixed term contract?

Having this CRM Officer role in post for a year will support the ongoing business as usual data processes, whilst increasing capacity in the team to support efforts to increase the amount of automation of processes and integration between systems. This will ultimately reduce our reliance on manual data processes, reducing the volume of day to day data transfer, which should lead to a reduction of required capacity with the CRM team beyond the term of this contract.

What skills, knowledge and experience are we looking for?

• Demonstrable relevant experience working in Fundraising, or a Charity database team role using Beacon CRM or any database similar, with experience of CRMs in general.
• Evidenced experience of managing high volumes of personal data using a large and complex supporter/CRM database.

Our work is based on the hopes and aspirations of our MS community. Together we campaign at all levels, fund ground-breaking research, and provide award winning support and information.

About this job

We are in a pivotal moment in how we use data at the MS Society. Following investment in a new CRM and data infrastructure, we are building our strategic analytics capability, one that shapes how we engage, communicate with, and support the MS community and our supporters.

We are looking for a Business Intelligence Lead for Engagement who is, first and foremost, a strong analyst. Someone who's built propensity models, next best action logic, or lifetime value analysis, and who understands how to turn that thinking into segmentation, selections, and audience strategies that improve engagement and fundraising outcomes. You will lead a team and shape how we understand our audiences, turning that understanding into action.

What you will be doing

• Applying advanced analytical techniques e.g. propensity modelling and next best action, to understand audience behaviour and inform engagement and fundraising strategy
• Overseeing selections and segmentation for income and engagement activities and journeys, ensuring they are accurate, timely, and grounded in real analytical insight
• Leading a team of analysts, developing their skills in advanced analysis as well as delivery
• Partnering with fundraising, marketing, communications, and digital teams to embed data-driven decision-making
• Building dashboards and reporting that go beyond tracking KPIs to actively changing how decisions get made
• Contributing to our wider data maturity journey as we build out the Data and BI function

What we are looking for

• Significant, hands-on experience designing, building, and applying advanced predictive analytical techniques that directly inform engagement and income decisions
• Strong hands-on experience with CRM systems, FastStats, and Power BI, together with proficiency in SQL
• Experience developing and managing a team, providing data and advisory services across an organisation
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills — able to make complex information accessible to a range of stakeholders
• Experience in a data-driven marketing, engagement, or fundraising role

If you are excited by the idea of building an analytics function from a strong foundation, and shaping how it grows from here, we would love to hear from you.
