Unifrog’s mission
We’re on a mission to level the playing field when it comes to young people finding and applying for their next step after school. We're achieving this by bringing all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices, and submit the strongest applications. We also empower teachers and counselors to manage the progression process effectively.
Our outlook is global - we work with schools and universities all over the world, from the US to New Zealand, and from Italy to Hong Kong. We want to make it so that young people can compare every opportunity taught in English, wherever it is in the world, and have all the support they need to make successful applications.
We have a clear social purpose, and we’re hugely ambitious. We already work with over half of UK secondary schools, and over a thousand international schools. We are growing rapidly in terms of the number of our customers, in terms of how much they use our platform, and in terms of the breadth of products we offer.
We recently expanded our impact with Unifrog for primary schools. By bringing our platform to younger learners, we’re supporting schools in delivering a comprehensive careers and PSHE curriculum from Reception through to Year 6. Our mission is to start early; breaking down barriers, challenging stereotypes, and ensuring every child, regardless of background, believes that every future pathway is within their reach.
Our team is at the heart of our business and is integral to our success. We work hard to foster a culture of openness, happiness and innovation, and we commit to helping every individual learn and grow so that they can reach their full potential. We want to hire talented people, whatever their background. If you are excited by our mission and are ready to work hard, please don’t hesitate to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
We believe in the power of diversity. If you are from an ethnic minority background, we would like to strongly encourage you to apply. In advance of applying, if you have any questions about working at Unifrog, please contact our Recruitment Lead (details on our jobs page).

We are looking for a CRM & Data Officer to take ownership of HorseWorld’s supporter data and CRM system—ensuring it is accurate, compliant and actively enabling our fundraising to grow.
At HorseWorld, we believe in the power of horses to change lives.
For over 70 years, we’ve rescued, rehabilitated and rehomed horses, ponies and donkeys in need. Today, that work reaches further—through our Discovery programme, we partner rescued horses with children and young people who are struggling in mainstream education, helping them rebuild confidence, connection and a sense of possibility.
We are growing our impact, and with that comes the need for strong foundations.
Behind every donation, every supporter, every horse and every young person we reach, there is data we must be able to trust.
This role sits at the heart of that.
The Role
This is a pivotal role within our fundraising team. You will be the person who makes sure our systems work, our income is correctly recorded and reconciled, and our data is handled with care and integrity.
You will work closely with fundraising and finance colleagues, and with the CEO, to ensure that our data not only meets regulatory requirements, but supports better decisions, stronger relationships and increased income.
This is not just about maintaining data.
It’s about making it useful.
Key Responsibilities
CRM & Data Management
- Own and manage HorseWorld’s CRM system, ensuring data accuracy, integrity and usability
- Act as system administrator and lead on any future development or upgrades
- Produce reports and insights to support fundraising performance and decision-making
- Support colleagues to use the CRM effectively through guidance and training
Data Protection & Compliance
- Work with the CEO to ensure compliance with GDPR and relevant fundraising regulations
- Act as a key point of contact for data protection queries and audits
- Maintain clear processes, documentation and staff understanding of data responsibilities
Fundraising Operations & Financial Reconciliation
- Reconcile all fundraising income through the CRM with the Accounts team on a monthly basis
- Ensure all income streams (online platforms, standing orders, events, etc.) are accurately recorded and monitored
- Support fundraising activities and events with data and financial processes
Gift Aid
- Manage and improve Gift Aid processes to ensure efficiency and compliance
- Submit accurate monthly claims and maintain robust records
- Ensure readiness for HMRC inspection at all times
Lottery Administration
- Record and monitor lottery income
- Complete required returns to the Gambling Commission
- Ensure compliance with all relevant regulatory requirements
About You
You are someone who takes pride in getting things right.
You are naturally organised, detail-focused and comfortable working with data, systems and processes. You understand that accuracy matters—not just for compliance, but because it underpins trust, income and impact.
You are equally comfortable working independently and as part of a team, and you bring a practical, problem-solving mindset to your work.
You don’t just keep systems running—you look for ways to make them better.
Experience & Skills
Essential
- Experience working with CRM systems and managing data accurately and systematically
- Strong Excel and IT skills
- Experience in administrative roles involving finance and/or donor data
- Confidence in reconciling income and producing reports
- Ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines
- Strong attention to detail and analytical thinking
Desirable
- Experience in a fundraising or charity environment
- Knowledge of Gift Aid and charity income processes
- Experience with Beacon CRM or similar systems
- Understanding of GDPR and data protection requirements
Personal Qualities
- Aligned with HorseWorld’s values: Caring, Collaborative, Proactive, Adaptable, Inclusive
- A collaborative team player who builds strong working relationships
- A proactive problem-solver with a “can do” attitude
- Comfortable taking ownership and working with minimal supervision
- Motivated by the impact of our work with horses and young people
Why This Role Matters
Every donation we receive, every supporter we engage, and every programme we deliver relies on data being accurate, compliant and usable.
In this role, your work will directly support:
- the growth of our fundraising income
- the strength of our supporter relationships
- and ultimately, the number of horses and young people we can help
It’s a role with real responsibility—and real impact.
