About the Organisation
United World Schools is dedicated to improving the educational opportunities of poor and marginalised children around the world. By providing children with a basic education, we are striking at the heart of long term poverty and deprivation – a long game but one we are tackling head on and with ambition and commitment. UWS provides a flexible education model that is simple yet effective in remote regions. The model follows the national curriculum, whilst supporting teachers to implement educational programmes that are appropriate for the contexts in which they are working.
We are a growing team of 16 staff based in London and we have a much bigger team delivering our programmes in Cambodia, Myanmar and Nepal. All of our staff are incredibly passionate about what they do, and committed to going above and beyond for the cause. In London, where this role would be based, we have a fun and dynamic office environment featuring team socials, music, Bake Off sweepstakes and the occasional team karaoke night! The Programmes Senior Associate would also be required to fly out and support some of our projects, and see first-hand what it means to provide education in remote and marginalised communities.
Role Summary
The Senior Associate will be at the beating heart of a programmatic growth journey that will see an additional 30,000+ more children be able to go to school in the next few years. The role will engage with and support all areas of UWS operations - measuring, analysing and effectively reporting on the impact (direct and long-term) of our programmes as well as being responsible for ensuring that our monitoring and reporting systems are robust and effective. The role will make a significant contribution to the successful operations of the Programmes team and further develop the communication and support channels between Programmes, Partnerships and Fundraising.
A key aspect of the role will be to fully utilise a new programmatic data management system that is being developed for UWS by ‘Beyondme’ (the charitable wing of Deloitte) to support the in-country teams in improving their monitoring, evaluation and reporting. You will also work closely with the Fundraising and Communication teams to enhance our reporting capacity and ensure that the evidence of impact that we gather, (through our monitoring, as well as case studies, focus groups, stories and films) is being conveyed in a compelling and accessible way. Through this, you will play a vital role in supporting a wide range of our stakeholders including major institutional funders, trusts and foundations, as well as our exciting partnerships with corporates and schools across the globe.
Responsibilities (including, but not limited to):
-
Lead responsibility for the quality of UWS monitoring and information management and the systems and procedures used for this. Identify and adopt models of best practice and relevant external research, to ensure that UWS’ data management and analysis is as efficient and effective as possible.

Monitor and maintain the quality and accessibility of information and data across the organisation, as required – for example UWS’s google drive documents.
-

-
Support the SMT and Communication Directors (in-country) to ensure the efficient and sufficient flow of information between the different teams and countries within UWS.
-
Support all areas of work of the UK Programmes team, as required.
