Job Details

With the recent announcement that £205 million of government funding will be made available to invest in community sports facilities across England in the next three years, the Football Foundation is well-supported to continue to invest in pitches and communities across the nation. This investment will be used by the Football Foundation to target communities up and down the country who will benefit most from access to better sports facilities.

To help us with this important mission, we currently have a vacancy for an experienced Analyst to join our team, where you will play a vital role in helping the Football Foundation measure the impact of its investment, so that it can maximise the benefit to grassroots football. 

The role

This vital role will help analyse data to make specific recommendations to inform our strategic decision making and to allow our funding partners to evaluate the impact of their investment. You will be involved in developing and maintaining PowerBI dashboards and manage the end-to-end surveying approach to ensure the data we hold in our databases is accurate and reliable.

This is an exciting opportunity for an Analyst with at least 2 years’ experience to use their knowledge and experience of applied data analytics to make a real difference to grassroots community football.

You don't need to follow football to apply, but it is expected that you appreciate the power of sport to change lives, and have a genuine interest in using your skills and experience to help the Football Foundation achieve our charitable and strategic objectives.

What are we looking for?

We would love to hear from you if you are educated to degree level in a related subject – or have equivalent experience – coupled with an understanding of the key principles relating to planning, data analysis, research and monitoring and evaluation to demonstrate outcomes and inform strategic planning.

We’re looking for a good problem solver with excellent IT and interpersonal skills, who is able to derive insights from complex data sets and present analysis and recommendations in clear, concise and comprehensive way.

For a full job description, person specification and details about the role, please download our recruitment pack.

What can we offer you?

In addition to a salary of £36,000 - £45,000 per annum (depending on your relevant skills and experience), you will start on 25 days annual leave plus bank holidays (which increases after 2 years), plus additional time off to volunteer. We also offer a generous pension scheme (8% employer contribution), free health care provision, a monthly gym subsidy, interest-free season ticket loan, death in service benefit and access to selected match tickets.

We are committed to helping our staff maintain a healthy work-life balance, so offer flexible working hours around core hours to help you achieve that.

How can I apply?

To apply, please send your CV and a covering letter highlighting briefly and clearly how your skills, abilities and experience equip you for the role, together with your reasons for applying. Please also complete an anonymous Equal Opportunities form - you'll find the link to this in the recruitment pack.

The closing date for applications is Sunday, 19 June 2022, however, we encourage candidates to apply as soon as possible, as we may close the advert and application window early if we have received sufficient applications.

Equality and diversity commitment

We request that all applicants complete our equal opportunities form as part of the application process. This anonymous and confidential form helps the Football Foundation to build up a picture of who is applying to join the organisation, and to monitor progress in this area. The link to complete this is in the application process. 

The Football Foundation is committed to, and values the principles of diversity, equality, and inclusion. We strive to provide an inclusive and supportive working environment where all our team feel respected and supported in fulfilling their potential. We encourage and welcome applications from all, regardless of background and are particularly interested to hear from individuals belonging to under-represented groups including diverse ethnic communities, individuals with a disability and those from the LGBTQI+ community.

Please note that you must be eligible to work in the UK to apply for this role.

Company

The Football Foundation is the country's largest sports charity. It funds the improvement of public sports facilities across the country – especially grassroots football facilities. 

Since it was launched in 2000, the Foundation has delivered projects worth more than £1.5 billion, which has developed more than 780 third-generation (3G) artificial grass pitches (AGP) with floodlights, more than 1,000 modern changing pavilions, and helped to renovate and properly maintain thousands of natural turf football pitches up and down the country.  These high quality, sustainable facilities are helping to improve the experience of those who play football for the love of doing so, to stay fit and healthy, strengthening communities and transforming lives.
