About Re-engage

Re-engage is a charity that is positive about older age and committed to reducing loneliness so that people can have social lives and friendship groups however old they are. We inspire and enable meaningful connections and shared experiences within communities across the UK for people over 75 facing loneliness and social isolation. 

Our volunteers work together to create better communities and help to enrich the lives of our members.  Older people who may have felt very alone now feel valued as individuals, continue to form friendships, and have groups that give support. We make sure that people know they are important well into their old age. 

We are proud of our values - positive, innovative, transparent, evidence-based, and accountable - and of our ethos of bringing generations together.

Our vision is a world where no one is ever too old to make friends and enjoy social interaction.

Our mission is to work within communities to end social isolation and loneliness in older people.

Re-engage is committed to growing a staff team that enjoys coming to work every day and gets satisfaction out of being part of delivering significant impact to the lives of older people. We all work remotely, and we don’t let that stop us from getting to know each other and enjoying down time together. Our wellbeing programme includes multiple interest groups: music, books, hobbies etc as well as coffee and catch ups, quizzes, mindfulness, and other group activities. Everyone is encouraged to get involved in working groups and staff networks, all of which contribute to us getting to know each other. We have strong values and promote behaviours that underpin all we do. 

How we recruit 

Don’t meet every single requirement? Studies have shown that women and people from minority ethnic backgrounds are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification. At Re-engage we are dedicated to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t align perfectly with every requirement in the job description, we’d encourage you to apply anyway. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles.

Re-engage uses the Hireful platform which helps remove unconscious bias for a forward-thinking, fair, and objective alternative to traditional hiring. Instead of using your CV alone, we'll be asking you to answer questions to test essential skills needed for the role. The responses are then anonymised and reviewed in a random order by members of our team. This enables us to make data-driven assessments focused on someone's ability, rather than their background.

The Hireful platform also asks some demographic questions before you start your application. We never see these responses with your application. We only see summary statistics to help us check if our candidate pool is balanced and if everyone has an equal chance to get hired irrespective of their background. If you prefer, you can easily opt out of answering these questions.

The closing date is 6 April and interviews will be held on Thursday 24 April and Friday 25 April 2025.

Call for expression of interest 

Gender Synthesis Review Consultant 

Location: UK, remote

Fee: To be negotiated

About the role

Following an external and independent gender synthesis review in 2020, Sightsavers’ Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) team is commissioning a second synthesis review on gender equality.

The objectives of this exercise are:

1. To understand what has changed in relation to gender equality in Sightsavers programme planning and implementation since the last gender synthesis in 2020

1. To identify achievements, challenges and gaps in relation to improving gender equality throughout the project cycle

1. To explore the link between strategic direction and implementation, and to identify areas that require strengthening

1. To generate a set of learnings and recommendations that can be applied to our programmatic processes and approaches (design, implementation, SBC, MEL), and further inform our strategic thinking and advocacy plans

The purpose of the review

• To assess the progress that Sightsavers has made in gender mainstreaming (in terms of both process and outcomes), following the previous review in 2020.  How far have we progressed on the recommendations and what more needs to be done.  What progress has been made towards achieving equality or equity for women in our programmes.

• To capture and collate operational learning in a form that is useful to Sightsavers, enabling us to review achievements and challenges (i.e. what works, in which contexts and why, and what is inhibiting progress on gender mainstreaming).

• To identify discussion points and key learning about the organisation’s strategic approach to gender inclusion to make recommendations, where appropriate, on areas that could be strengthened. 

Deliverables

• Write a short inception report in English, covering approach, methods and sources to be used (to include an evaluation matrix). This will be finalised after review by Sightsavers.

• Final report in English, edited after at least two rounds of comments from Sightsavers internal review team, to include an Executive Summary which can be used as a standalone item.

• Short summary document/s or infographic7 covering the key points and recommendations for the main audience groups. 

• Presentation and participation in an internal Sightsavers webinar to share and discuss the gender synthesis findings and recommendations.

• Considerable expertise in gender and particularly, women and girls with disabilities in a developing country context.
