Create frameworks for reporting and evaluating impact, ensuring outcomes are clearly tracked and articulated.
*
Collaborate with marketing and communications to showcase achievements and share meaningful stories.
👀 Who We’re Looking For

Experience working on social value programmes — or a genuine passion and aptitude to grow into the space.
*
Skilled in stakeholder engagement, both internally and externally.

Confident presenting impact through data, storytelling, or reports.

Organised, proactive, and collaborative in approach.
