We're looking for someone who is passionate about making a real difference to people's lives and who understands the power of evidence, insight and learning to improve services and demonstrate impact. You will be confident working with data, able to analyse and interpret statistical information, identify trends and patterns, and turn complex information into clear, meaningful insights for a range of audiences.
You will be curious about what works, what could work better and, most importantly, the difference our services make to the people and communities we support. You will be equally comfortable working with numbers and listening to people's experiences, recognising that understanding impact requires both robust quantitative data and meaningful qualitative evidence.
A key part of the role will involve meeting directly with clients across Navigate's projects and services to hear about their experiences and understand the difference that support has made to their lives. You will be able to build rapport with people from a wide range of backgrounds and circumstances, ask thoughtful and sensitive questions, and ensure that clients' voices and experiences are represented respectfully and authentically in our evaluation, funder reporting, fundraising and annual Impact Report.
You will be highly organised and able to take responsibility for monthly, quarterly and annual funder reporting deadlines across all Navigate projects, bringing together information from different services and sources to produce accurate, engaging and evidence-based reports. You will have strong analytical and written communication skills, with the ability to combine statistical information, outcomes, client feedback and real-life experiences to tell a compelling and credible story about our impact.
You do not necessarily need to come from a money advice background. We are looking for someone with strong analytical skills, excellent attention to detail and a genuine commitment to using data and evidence to make a difference. You may have experience in monitoring and evaluation, impact measurement, data analysis, research, performance, reporting or a related area.
You will be compassionate, curious, organised and solution-focused, with excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach. You will be committed to continuous improvement and excited by the opportunity to help Navigate better understand, strengthen and communicate the difference our work makes.
Working at Navigate: At Navigate, we know that our people are our greatest strength. We invest in training, supervision, wellbeing and professional development, creating an environment where people feel supported to do their best work. We encourage innovation, embrace new technology where it improves services, and are always looking for better ways to support both our clients and our team.
Working at Navigate is genuinely rewarding. You'll become part of a friendly, supportive team that believes everyone deserves the opportunity to recover from financial hardship and build a more secure future.
In this role, you will have the opportunity to see the difference our work makes across individuals, families and communities and play a central part in helping us understand that impact, learn from it and communicate it to funders, partners and the wider community.

A key part of the role will involve meeting directly with clients to understand and capture their experiences of Navigate’s services. These first-hand insights will provide rich qualitative evidence for funder reports, impact reporting, service evaluation, and organisational learning, alongside the analysis and interpretation of statistical and performance information.
