We are recruiting a part time Pause Coordinator to join our established Practice in Halton.

Pause Coordinators play a vital role in the success of our work. They manage a broad and varied range of responsibilities, from supporting finance, data and performance monitoring systems, to organising events and providing high-level administrative and strategic support. As a key point of contact, they work closely with professionals, women and partners, requiring excellent communication skills and a strong understanding of the needs and experiences of the women we support.

As a Pause Coordinator, you will provide comprehensive administrative support to the Practice, helping ensure the team can work effectively and deliver meaningful impact.

You will be central to the smooth day-to-day running of the service, particularly as colleagues are often working out in the community. This role suits someone who is highly organised, proactive and detail-focused. You'll be in the office as well as working from home, and as you're part time, we can be flexible with your hours.

You’ll be part of a small, supportive team where collaboration and flexibility are essential, and where everyone is committed to improving outcomes for the women we work with.

In the four years since Martingale launched, we have now supported over 200 Scholars to undertake postgraduate degrees across our thirteen partner universities.

As Martingale grows, we are building our policy and advocacy function to shape the future of postgraduate access, affordability and outcomes. We are seeking a rigorous, proactive and collaborative Policy Manager to drive the monitoring, insight and evaluation that underpin our influence, and to support the development and implementation of our policy positions and stakeholder engagement.

Reporting to the Head of Communications and External Engagement, you will lead Martingale’s policy tracking, political intelligence, evidence generation, and evaluation and learning. You will turn a fast-moving external landscape into clear, actionable insight, and produce the evidence, analysis and draft materials that enable the Head and CEO to position Martingale credibly with funders, universities, the sector and government.

This is a hands-on, delivery-focused role with significant autonomy. You will own workstreams end-to-end, build systems and processes where they do not yet exist, and influence more senior colleagues and stakeholders. You will sit at the centre of a landmark research and policy programme and help deliver a campaign to implement the recommendations from Martingale’s major HESA-based research partnership, making the case that talent, not background, should determine who progresses to and thrives in postgraduate study.

We welcome applicants from a range of career paths who are excited to be part of a growing, fast-paced charity delivering meaningful impact.
