Purpose of the role
Do you enjoy working with data sets to help organisations tell a better story? We are looking for a part-time Data and Impact Officer who will help us to interpret and use data and insights to communicate the impact of church buildings in the UK, and how we can best keep churches open and in good repair.
By making sure that data is accurate, joined up, compliant and useful, the Data and Impact Officer will enable the charity to better understand its different audiences, improve engagement and fundraising, evidence impact and make informed decisions.
The role is a mix of both project work that takes place at different points in the year and some business-as-usual tasks, and so would suit someone who enjoys variety in what they work on and collaborating with different teams to help them achieve their objectives.
If you are analytical, curious and are comfortable influencing stakeholders through using clear, evidence-based insights, you could make a difference at the National Churches Trust in keeping churches open and in use.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
