The Felix Project

The Felix Project is London's biggest food redistribution charity and the largest end-to-end food redistribution charity in Europe. 
   
Our vision is a London where no one goes hungry and good food is never wasted.  
 

We rescue surplus food from businesses, supermarkets, restaurants and farms. This food is nutritious, in-date, and safe and includes a high proportion of fresh vegetables, fruit, meat and fish. If we did not rescue this food, it would be at risk of going to waste. Instead, we deliver it free of charge to London charities, schools, food banks, food hubs and other organisations serving people in need. Our food is a vital lifeline for children and families, people on low incomes, people who have lost their jobs, the homeless, refugees, domestic abuse survivors, the elderly and keyworkers.   

 
We were founded in 2016 in memory of Felix Byam Shaw, by his father, entrepreneur Justin Byam Shaw.

 
Role Overview

Over the past few years, The Felix Project has become increasingly focused on and committed to a better understanding of our impact as an organisation. We have developed an organizational Theory of Change and continue to build on an impact strategy to ensure that our approach to assessing, understanding and acting upon impact is robust and consistent. 

We have worked with external consultants to make progress on this journey, and now have a full-time Impact, Evaluation and Reporting Manager in place. While we have particularly focused on understanding our social impact as an organisation, we are also passionate about our environmental impact. This is an important part of our dual mission, working towards a London where no food is wasted and no one goes hungry. 

Establishing an Impact function at The Felix Project has caused our work in this area to develop and grow, creating the need for further resource. This new Impact Officer role will work with the Impact, Evaluation and Reporting Manager to further embed impact and evaluation activity across The Felix Project, specifically by:

- Supporting teams to evaluate projects and programmes in a robust and consistent manner, enabling them to meet funder requirements and to uncover operational and strategic learnings.

-Raising awareness and understanding of impact and evaluation across the organisation.

-Forming relationships with key internal stakeholders to help the Impact Team to proactively anticipate evaluation needs.

-Supporting the implementation and development of practices to assess and improve environmental impact following the recommendations of our current research on this.

-Aiding with work to make reporting structures transparent and consistent internally.

-Further activities as required by the Manager and the organisation to better understand and improve impact of the organisation and programmes and projects within it.
