Client Manager Jobs in Manchester

Our Mission

We're Tutors United. We're on a mission to end the attainment and employability gap through the power of community-based tutoring. We support young people to thrive at two key transition points – from primary to secondary school, and from university to employment.

What We Do 

Working with housing associations and other local partners, we run free tutoring programmes for primary school children and their families, providing access to vital educational support to those who need it most. We're proud to serve diverse, low-income, refugee, migrant, and multilingual communities across London, the Midlands, and the North West. We hire, train, and pay inspiring university students – most of whom also come from low-income households – as tutors, providing them with meaningful, paid work experience and support to boost their careers.

Each year, our work gives hundreds of young people, parents and carers the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to maximise education and employment opportunities. We have a brilliant Programme Officer position available for an ambitious, dedicated, and proactive person to join our team!

Job Purpose

This is an exciting time to join our small and impactful team, as we embark on a new four-year strategy, with goals to broaden and deepen our reach and impact, diversify our funding and delivery partnerships, and boost our programmes to support year 6 to 7 transition and tutor career development opportunities.

A major strategic priority is to grow geographically in the Midlands and North West - which this role will play a pivotal role in achieving. Since expanding beyond London during the pandemic with online tuition, we have since grown across the Midlands and the North West region and are looking for a Programme Officer to support us in continuing fostering new partnerships and growing our geographic reach. Working closely with our Manchester-based Head of Regions, you will help deliver contracts, build strong local relationships, and expand our reach in high-need areas.

The Programme Officer will be responsible for the management and overall delivery of their designated programmes. Over the next four years, we aim to scale our tutoring hubs to reach over 1,000 pupils per year in core cities and areas across England. This role will involve managing relationships with tutors, parents and clients, while collecting robust qualitative and quantitative data to measure the impact and build the success of our work. This is a critical role, leading on the delivery and evaluation of multiple programmes, managing key stakeholder relationships, and contributing to the development of our tutoring programmes in our newer delivery regions.

The Programme Officer will ensure high levels of quality assurance, particularly among tutors working in their hubs, so we achieve our intended outcomes. This is a multifaceted role, working across all parts of the organisation to ensure we deliver the best possible results for our pupils.

We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic about education, has strong stakeholder management skills and a broader knowledge of communities in the North-West region is also beneficial. You should be able to adapt your communication style to effectively engage with clients, parents, tutors, pupils and funders alike, and have strong written and verbal presentation skills. You will bring brilliant project management skills and be comfortable working with data and using it to make informed decisions.

Job Details

Please see attached job specification for full job details. 

Remote – Regular travel to the Capacity office in Liverpool, Local Trust office in London, and 3ni work in the north east, as well as client offices across the country and other sites as needed. Out of hours travel and stays away from home are therefore a feature of the role.

Closing date: Midnight, Sunday 23rd March 2025

In this role, you’ll be shaping the future of 3ni by driving forward core components of our programme. Your main focus as Senior Practice and Delivery Manager will be leading the development and delivery of our brand new consultancy offer.

3ni is a new social value partnership, bringing together policy and practice to transform neighbourhoods across the country. At 3ni, we believe that community regeneration starts from the ground up. Through research, policy and events, the national network for neighbourhood improvement, is sharing and shaping the best and next practices and helping disadvantaged communities rebuild. 

The Role

The to-do lists you write and the skill sets you engage will vary. One day you might be scoping and delivering 3ni’sresearch programme, the next devising plans for growing our membership and the next working closely with our Operations Director to develop, refine and execute our business plan. You’ll also play a key role in iterating our innovative diagnostic tool Discovery, using cutting-edge data to support us to engage our key audiences. You’ll not only help us to get new partners on board, but also play a key role further engaging our existing ones, making sure they stay connected to the work we do. You’ll build strong and trusting relationships that enable us to deliver our consultancy work, securing credibility, influence and impact for our work responding to challenges facing some of our most disadvantaged communities.

What we need

You’ll be as happy in the world of policy and strategy as you are in the day to day reality of practice and delivery and can see the big picture as well as having an attention to detail and the highest of standards when it comes to producing content.

• You’ll be dealing with numbers and often complex data, and are as comfortable being immersed in spreadsheets to put together the budget and costs for a project as you are checking the interdependencies whilst putting together a GANTT chart and project management plan.
• You are a proficient and accomplished communicator. You’re as at home with the written word as you are talking through the key points of a presentation.
• You are an experienced, entrepreneurial and proactive thinker, designer and doer, who can bring creativity, critical thinking and business development skills to the role as we work together in a small 3ni team, as part the wider Capacity organisation, and with the broader ecosystem of partners.
• You’re great at mastering a brief. You’re happy wading through research reports and datasets, and are able to use your brilliant analytical skills to get to the heart of the matter and obtain the key insights and information relevant to our work.
