As Data Operations Executive
You will play a crucial role in helping us reach our fundraising targets and deliver excellent supporter experience through your support of the charity’s CRM system, Salesforce. You will have experience or a theoretical understanding of working with data and a CRM system. We are looking for someone who is keen to learn, has an excellent eye for detail, enjoys balancing multiple priorities, and most importantly, loves working with colleagues to deliver exceptional supporter experience and continuous improvements. You will have the ability to shape vital processes within a rapidly growing organisation that is putting data at the centre of its operations.
Key Responsibilities
- Provide 1st Line support for requests received into the team’s ticketing system, triaging all incoming tickets and either resolving, providing self-help guides, or escalating as appropriate.
- Analyse support tickets to identify recurring themes which may suggest changes to Salesforce are required, additional training is necessary, or changes to processes are required.
- Act as our document custodian, ensuring our documentation is always up-to-date and relevant for its purpose and checking in with document owners when a review is needed.
- Create new documents such as ‘How To’ guides to a high standard which are straightforward using non-technical language.
- Establish relationships with stakeholders across the organisation and help them resolve data issues and requests.
- Assist the Data Operations Manager, Senior Data Operations Officer, and the Data Operations Officers in improving business processes for the successful and efficient management of supporter data.
- Work with the Data Operations Officers to perform simple ad-hoc imports of data into Salesforce that cannot be processed by automated means.
- Import data and see errors through to completion by either resolving the problem or escalating where appropriate.
- Support the Data Operations Officers in delivering an ongoing training programme to all employees.
- Other data management tasks from time to time as identified by the Data Operations Manager.
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.
