Unifrog’s mission
We’re on a mission to level the playing field when it comes to young people finding and applying for their next step after school. We're achieving this by bringing all the available information into one single, impartial, user-friendly platform that helps students to make the best choices, and submit the strongest applications. We also empower teachers and counsellors to manage the progression process effectively.
Our outlook is global - we work with schools and universities all over the world, from the US to New Zealand, and from Italy to Hong Kong. We want to make it so that young people can compare every opportunity taught in English, wherever it is in the world, and have all the support they need to make successful applications.
We have a clear social purpose, and we’re hugely ambitious. We already work with over half of UK secondary schools, and hundreds of international schools. We are growing rapidly in terms of the number of our customers, in terms of how much they use our platform, and in terms of the breadth of products we offer (check out this video to hear more about the Unifrog platform).
Our team is at the heart of our business and is integral to our success. We work hard to foster a culture of openness, happiness and innovation, and we commit to helping every individual learn and grow so that they can reach their full potential. We want to hire talented people, whatever their background. If you are excited by our mission and are ready to work hard, please don’t hesitate to apply. We look forward to hearing from you!
We believe in the power of diversity. If you are from an ethnic minority background, we would like to strongly encourage you to apply.

Working together
Your projects will see you work closely with individuals across the company in our sales, finance and data teams. You’ll work closely with our Junior Salesforce Business Analyst who supports the team with Jira requests and reporting.
You will work closely with your line manager, the Head of Data and Insights, to define strategy and priorities.
You may be required to work alongside external Salesforce consultants.
What we’re looking for

Inclusion and diversity at Unifrog
-
Within the company we try to foster a culture of innovation, and a happy working environment, both because this is the right thing to do, and because we think this results in the most effective team. To this end we believe in open communication, celebrating successes, supporting each other, not being afraid to be wrong or to fail, and promoting good ideas wherever they come from.
-
As a platform that supports teachers and students from a huge variety of backgrounds it’s important that our team and leadership reflects this diversity. This is something we are actively working towards and prioritising. We want to embed diversity, equity and inclusion across everything we do, continually evaluating policies and practices to make sure they are inclusive and equitable.
-
To make sure everyone’s voice is heard and people have the opportunities to learn to be better allies in the workplace, we encourage the team to share what they’re celebrating, facilitate training and group discussions, and seek regular feedback about what more the company could do to help people feel included.
-
To ensure that our recruitment process is consistent and fair, we anonymise your application and therefore do not see your name, personal, educational or professional background. We also randomise the order of responses so that it’s less likely that a candidate is advantaged or disadvantaged by where their answers appear compared to other candidates.

INTRAC is looking for a dynamic individual with a passion for civil society to join as Director of Fundraising and Partnerships.
INTRAC is unashamedly for civil society. We are a mission-driven, not-for-profit organisation, focused on the core belief that vibrant, diverse and inclusive civil societies are essential catalysts for a world where everyone can thrive. We believe that locally available civil society support is essential as part of the wider movement to ‘shift the power’ to enable those tackling inequality and injustice to be resilient and effective, to navigate changes in their context and contribute to long-term inclusive locally led change. This is an exciting time for the organisation as we move from envisioning our strategy to implementing it.
Our strategic framework, Locally Rooted, Globally Connected will guide INTRAC’s practice over the next five years, as we evolve to becoming a network-led organisation, influenced and informed by the priorities, insights and aspirations of our network members, and the networks we interact with. Together we will work to shift how civil society support is conceived and delivered: to transform civil society support eco-systems, so that local and global organisations are supported to develop, engage with others, and do what they want to do, better, to deliver just, equitable and sustainable societies.
The role of strategic funding is crucial to this transformative change. We are looking for an individual who is committed to anti-racist and feminist leadership to join our senior leadership team and help drive this change.
You will have significant experience and a proven track record in developing and delivering fundraising strategy, particularly focused on trusts, foundations and philanthropy, taking a relationship-based approach to build partnerships with organisations that share similar values and vision.
You will work with the team to build our capability, partnership, systems and processes to steward relationships, develop grants and manage their delivery. Working with our Communications Co-ordinator you will help to build INTRAC’s profile and position in line with our strategic vision and ambitions. You will have active support from the CEO along with strong board commitment to help develop and deliver this role.
This is a part time role (0.6-0.8 FTE); initially offered as an eighteen month contract with the intention to extend should the role be successful.
We are a remote organisation, with staff working across the UK. As we become a global network we are looking at options as to how to expand our staff base in different geographies, as we believe this will benefit INTRAC and support our strategic direction. However, we do not have a straightforward way to do this currently. Whilst we are open to considering applicants from all parts of the world we will not sponsor visa applications. If you are based outside the UK and are keen to consider one of our roles please email Jenny George to discuss details.
To apply for the role please share a copy of your CV and respond to the following three questions (word limit 750 words):
1. Build Partnerships: Please tell us about a time when you have built a long-term relationship and secured strategic funding from new funder.
2. Leadership: Please tell us about a time when you challenged current practice in an organisation and embedded a new way of working.
3. Communication: Please tell us about a time when communicated a complex issue, raising its profile and encouraging others to engage with it/act on it.
In answering, please provide as much evidence as you can, to explain:
· the Situation in which you acted,
· what you were Tasked to do,
· the Actions you took and
· the Results you achieved and
· what you learnt from the process.
Answering the questions in this way will help the short-listing panel recognise and understand clearly the combination of knowledge, skills and competencies that you bring to the role.
Application Deadline 3rd February 2025.
Provisional interview date: 11th February 2025.
