Organisations have used the findings from our evaluations to support campaigning, fundraising and to improve service delivery.

Armed with fresh content, we want to play an enhanced role in actively shaping the policy debate in the UK.

Main responsibilities include:

• Leading the implementation and ongoing management of the new PIE auditor registration regime
• Preparing and presenting reports and MI to Supervisors, the Supervision Division and committees
