Deaf Unity is seeking an experienced evaluation specialist to support evaluation of the charity’s projects, community activity and services.
Our activities engage a broad range of beneficiaries, participants and stakeholders: deaf students and employees; our local deaf community in London; and many different stakeholders – universities, employers and local councils – working with us to remove the barriers that disadvantage deaf people and prevent access to opportunity.
The overall aim of this commission is to equip Deaf Unity with a practical, effective evaluation framework and plan enabling us to capture and analyse our impact across the full range of our activities. We require this in order (i) to improve the design and delivery of our services and activities, on an ongoing basis and (ii) to evidence the charity’s impact and the difference we are making in people’s lives, helping us to make a more powerful case for change and to recruit new funders and partners.
Deaf Unity: mission and purpose
Deaf Unity is a deaf-led charity, based in London, that works to empower, nurture and train deaf individuals. Our particular focus is on three main points of transition that are pivotal in enabling deaf people to realise their potential – and to thrive within and contribute fully to society. These transition points are:
-
leaving school to enter further/higher education
-
entering the workforce
-
progressing in the workplace
We work with our community in London to identify the barriers deaf people face at every stage of this journey, empowering them to make informed choices and to succeed. We partner with stakeholders (universities, employers, voluntary sector partners) to decrease, overcome or eradicate these barriers altogether.
From our home base in London, we work alongside our community and partners to develop and deliver new initiatives in response to clearly identified needs. We directly engage 300+ deaf people each year: inspiring and supporting school-leavers to take their first steps into higher education; empowering graduates and employees to navigate the world of work with confidence; and connecting deaf people with each other to build community, tackle isolation, mobilise around key issues and break down barriers to learning and employment. Sharing and dissemination of our work (including online to reach the national community) goes on to engage far greater numbers.
Deaf Unity generates much of its income from providing interpreting and consultancy services and delivering training (British Sign Language and deaf awareness courses). This activity fully aligns with our charitable mission and generates essential unrestricted funding to support our wider activities.
Context for the commission
In late 2023, the Board of Trustees agreed a forward plan, setting out the charity’s objectives and the activities we plan to deliver over the next 3-5 years. Our work is guided by 5 high-level, strategic objectives. We aim that by 2028:
- Deaf Unity will have created in partnership with London schools a high-quality, effective careers advice pack/toolkit which can be accessed digitally by schools across the UK to inspire and support deaf learners on their FE/HE/vocational journey.
-
Deaf Unity will be providing a comprehensive package of support around employability, that is recognised and in use by 5 leading nationwide employers and by the National Union of Students (NUS).
- We will be hosting in London a highly respected, impactful annual event for deaf people in work that is reaching 100 deaf people each year, directly or indirectly
-
Deaf Unity will be able to evidence that the CIO is making a substantial positive difference in the lives of learners, students and employees - through quantitative and qualitative feedback including testimonials and case studies
- Our organisation will be stable, financially secure and resilient, supported by strong governance and management systems and effective partnership networks
This commission directly supports objective 4.
In parallel with this, Deaf Unity will work with an Organisational Development consultant to make the transition from a freelance to an effective and well-managed PAYE staffing structure for the organisation, with strong systems and policies embedded across our teams.
This programme of development activity is kindly funded by Trust for London.
In the course of the year Deaf Unity will also be working with a corporate partner offering pro-bono support to redevelop the website and advise on online course delivery.
Overview of role
The evaluation specialist will be required to support Deaf Unity’s CEO and Training & Services Manager in developing an appropriate evaluation framework and action plan to be applied across the breadth of the charity’s activities, with supporting materials (e.g. questionnaires; interview prompts; other approaches). This is in the context of projects that often serve the deaf community, where written responses to feedback forms/online surveys are not always appropriate.
The consultant will support the leadership team to put in place training (not included in the fee) and systems to ensure that freelance teams delivering Deaf Unity’s project and training activities have the necessary understanding, guidance and confidence to support effective monitoring and evaluation of these activities.
Elements of Deaf Unity’s work to be included in this framework are:
-
interventions designed to support deaf people in successfully navigating key points of transition
-
regular community activity: we are keen to assess e.g. the wellbeing and community-building aspects of Deaf Unity’s programmes
-
learners’ experiences of our training courses
-
formative evaluation: ensuring that new issues, lived experience and insights emerging through our regular community programmes feed into the charity’s plans and methodologies
We are keen to adopt relevant technology solutions to strengthen our evaluation systems and processes, and to integrate these with existing systems (e.g. CRM) wherever possible.
Schedule
We aim to start work on this evaluation project in April 2025, completing by end November 2025. We expect most of the work to be carried out in the first 4 months, with light-touch support thereafter. The evaluator will be required to work flexibly throughout this period and this will be negotiated with you on appointment, bearing in mind your other commitments.
Time commitment: Expected approx. 10 days in total
Fees: Fixed fee is £4,500 inclusive of VAT and expenses

-
Advise on mechanisms for feeding community feedback into ongoing content and programme development/creation – and evidencing this process
-

BACKGROUND
The latest research suggesting that the number of children and young people at risk of hunger has rocketed to 2.7 million* means that one in five children don't have enough to eat. When a child is too hungry to learn, when they’re aching for something to eat, they can’t concentrate. They can’t absorb information. Big feelings and worries can be impossible to control. They fall behind in their studies.
Magic Breakfast provide a nutritious and filling breakfast to over 200,000 children and young people every school day. We work with schools in areas of high disadvantage, helping staff target the children most in need without barrier or stigma. Magic Breakfast are ambitious to grow our impact to remove hunger as a barrier to learning for all children and young people in the UK.
The new UK government’s Children’s Wellbeing Bill outlined in the King’s Speech, includes a requirement for free school breakfast clubs in every English primary school. This is a fantastic start towards ending child morning hunger. Magic Breakfast’s influence will be instrumental to ensuring school breakfasts are introduced in a way that is hunger-focused and barrier free. In 2021, the Scottish Government, pledged a not yet enacted promise to provide breakfast to primary children.
Thousands of secondary school children are at risk of losing their free school breakfasts from September next year. For many of these students, this is their only opportunity to have a nutritious meal before facing a demanding school day, including taking exams.
Solutions across all UK nations are currently either not yet actioned or are severely underserving the current need. Being part of the work of Magic Breakfast is your chance, together with parents, teachers and people across the UK, to demonstrate the power of school breakfasts and to shape the way forward to end morning hunger for good.

Premier League Stadium Fund Technical Executive
The role is home-based, with regular travel to sites and facilities. Occasional travel to further locations and our main office at Wembley Stadium may be required to support business needs.
We currently have a vacancy in the Premier League Stadium Fund for a Technical Executive to support the Stadium Accreditation Programme and to support the assessment of applications to the Premier League Stadium Fund.
Premier League Stadium Fund
The Premier League Stadium Fund (PLSF) provides grants to improve stadium facilities for players, supporters, and officials. Supporting over 1,000 clubs, it aids teams in the National League System (Steps 1-6), Women’s Football Pyramid (Tiers 1-4), and newly promoted EFL clubs.
Through its Stadium Accreditation Programme, PLSF collects facility data for The FA, ensuring targeted investment. This digital process helps clubs track required works and report improvements. By funding upgrades, PLSF helps non-league and women’s clubs meet standards, avoid relegation, secure promotion, and enhance financial sustainability and matchday experiences.
Football Foundation
Whilst the Technical Executive will be responsible for the successful delivery of the Premier League Stadium Fund, they will be employed by the Football Foundation, and therefore it’s important that they understand the wider context – in terms of what we do and how we go about it.
The Football Foundation transforms lives and communities by creating great places to play. As an independent charity, we work in partnership with the Premier League, The FA, and Sport England to invest in community sports facilities. With an additional £205 million government investment in grassroots football over the next three years, we are well-positioned to continue improving pitches and facilities nationwide.
The role
The PLSF Technical Executive will support Stadium Accreditation for clubs in National League System Steps 5-6 and Women’s Football Pyramid Tiers 3-4, ensuring grounds meet FA standards on time. The role includes reviewing grant applications, managing risks, and aiding stadium development. This entry-level role provides hands-on experience in stadium design, development, and compliance. You'll support the PLSF grant process and Stadium Accreditation Programme, working with clubs to ensure grounds meet FA standards. Responsibilities include reviewing grant applications, managing risks, and supporting stadium development.
We’re looking for enthusiastic individuals eager to develop professionally. A qualification in a construction field (Level 4 HNC or HND minimum) is required. You don’t need a passion for football or in-depth knowledge of the football pyramid—your technical or construction background is what matters most. Successful applicants will gain hands-on experience in grant management and technical processes while working with an experienced team. Over time, you'll manage your own portfolio of clubs, guiding them to meet Stadium Accreditation requirements on schedule.
What are we looking for?
You’ll need an HNC/HND (Level 4/5) in a construction-related field and some experience on building sites, with knowledge of construction processes and quality standards. Understanding the FA’s league structures is desirable but not essential. We support team development and progression. To be eligible for promotion to a Technical Manager role, a degree in a construction-related field is required. With the right degree, we aim to prepare you for promotion within two to three years.You’ll need strong people skills to engage and motivate others while managing projects from start to finish. Excellent organisation is essential, balancing multiple tasks, prioritising, and meeting deadlines without compromising quality.
