Impact Analyst in Huddersfield

The role of BOP spans project development (working with Government and others to design and launch the service), project management (coordinating the delivery phase, managing performance, and liaising with the various stakeholders) and project finance (funding the project until it starts to earn outcomes payments).

Our own funding comes from a group of pioneering social investors, including The Office for Civil Society, Big Society Capital, Pilotlight, Trust for London, who, like us, are motivated by improving lives and changing the system for the better.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who wants to make a difference and is passionate about using data to change lives.

About the opportunity As a Junior Impact Analyst, you will work with our Greater Manchester Better Outcomes Partnership (GMBOP) and Kirklees Better Outcomes Partnership (KBOP) teams - partnerships that support people across Greater Manchester and Kirklees who are experiencing, or at risk of, housing insecurity and homelessness.

We bring together voluntary, community and public sector organisations to deliver joined-up, holistic and preventative support.

Through our central hub and delivery partners, we ensure people can access the right support at the right time, without having to repeat their story.

Our work is grounded in a strengths-based and trauma-informed approach.

We focus on people's assets, aspirations and choices - not just the challenges they face.

We are committed to working collaboratively, promoting dignity, and improving long‑term outcomes for individuals and communities.

We believe that people with lived experience and people who reflect the communities we serve bring essential insight, skills and leadership.

We actively welcome applications from individuals with these experiences and from groups currently under‑represented in the housing and homelessness workforce.
