About Koreo

Since 2004, Koreo has grown into one of the UK’s leading consultancies with a social purpose. Our aim is to build a just and regenerative world by accelerating the potential for people and organisations to create systemic social change. 

We provide consultancy services to a range of clients across the purpose-driven sector while also delivering our own programmes. Our consultancy services focus on: 

• Organisational Development: Driving culture change, embedding Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion principles into practice, and organisational design and restructuring.

• Talent Development: Strengthening leadership capacity through the design and delivery of bespoke management training programmes, while creating customised talent development initiatives to diversify and enhance workforces.

• Purpose and Impact: Helping organisations define their social purpose, design effective strategies, and measure progress through robust impact and evaluation frameworks.

• Fieldbuilding: Supporting organisations build networks and partnerships that foster shared learning, collaboration, and innovation across the social change ecosystem.

Our flagship programmes, Charityworks and 2027, complement our consultancy work and are aimed at building a more diverse and better-equipped social change movement. They focus on bringing diverse talent and inclusive practices into the social change sector while enhancing the leadership capacity of both emerging and established changemakers.

• Client Engagement and Campaigns:

  • Manage data on prospective clients using HubSpot (or similar CRM platforms).

  • Support the delivery of integrated campaigns promoting Koreo’s offers across portfolios.

• Brand and Communications:

  • Update and manage Koreo’s website, ensuring content is engaging and accurate.

  • Manage Koreo’s LinkedIn presence, including posting updates, engaging with followers, and monitoring performance.

  • Contribute to thought leadership content, such as blogs, articles, and reports, to support campaigns.

• Administrative and Operational Support:

  • Monitor and report on business development and communications activity, supporting the Managing Director with dashboards and data.
