1What this role really is

This role is all about the nuts and bolts of our global community investment programmes. You'll be the person who makes sure everything runs smoothly behind the scenes, from processing grant applications to helping organise employee volunteer days. Think of yourself as the engine room for our social impact work; you're not setting the direction, but you're keeping us moving. You'll be learning the ropes, getting to grips with our systems, and really understanding how we make a difference in communities around the world. It's a foundational role, meaning you'll touch a bit of everything and build a solid understanding of the sector.

2What you'd actually use

The tools this job runs on, and how well you'd need to know each one.

Benevity / YourCause (or similar Grants Platform)Intermediate

Processing grant applications, managing employee volunteer sign-ups, pulling standard reports, and updating partner records. You'll be in this system a lot.

Microsoft Excel (or Google Sheets)Intermediate

Managing lists, basic data entry, simple sorting and filtering, and creating basic tables for internal use. You'll need to be comfortable with spreadsheets.

Microsoft Outlook (or similar email client)Intermediate

Managing your inbox, scheduling meetings, and drafting professional emails to internal and external stakeholders. Email is a primary communication tool.

Asana / Monday.com (or similar Project Management Tool)Intermediate

Tracking your own tasks, updating project boards for specific grants or events, and ensuring partner deliverables are on track. This helps keep us organised.

Microsoft Teams / Slack (or similar Collaboration Suite)Intermediate

Participating in team channels, sharing files, and using basic chat functions for quick internal communication. It's how we stay connected as a team.

Power BI / Tableau (Viewing only)Basic

Viewing and interpreting existing dashboards to understand programme performance or employee engagement metrics. You'll need to be able to read the data, not build the dashboards.

3What you get to decide, and how that grows

Power in a job isn't your title. It's what you're allowed to decide. Here's how it grows as you move up.

4How you'll be judged

The scoreboard, honestly: the hard targets, how often each one is actually looked at, and the quiet human signals that never make it onto a dashboard.

Grant Payment Efficiency
Percentage of grant payments processed within the agreed 30-day terms.
Target · 98%+

If we have 50 payments due in a month, you'll ensure at least 49 of them are processed and sent to Finance on time. Missed deadlines mean unhappy partners, and we really don't want that.

Grantee Report Collection Rate
Percentage of required impact reports collected from grantee partners by their specified deadlines.
Target · 95%+

For 20 partners needing to submit quarterly reports, you'll chase and collect 19 or 20 of them on time. This data is crucial for us to understand our impact.

Employee Volunteer Sign-up Rate
Number of employees signed up for specific volunteer events you've helped coordinate.
Target · Achieve 40% target for assigned events

For a local park clean-up with a target of 20 volunteers, you'll help get at least 8 people signed up by sending out clear comms and managing the sign-up sheet.

Data Entry Accuracy
Error rate in data entered into our grants and impact measurement platforms.
Target · <2% error rate

Out of 100 data points you enter, you'll make sure no more than 2 have mistakes. Clean data is everything when we're trying to prove our impact.

Proactive Learning & Initiative
Demonstrates a keenness to learn new processes, tools, and industry knowledge, and takes initiative on assigned tasks.
  • Asks thoughtful questions rather than waiting to be told what to do next. Suggests minor improvements to existing processes. Actively seeks feedback on work. Completes assigned training modules without prompting. Shows curiosity about the 'why' behind tasks.
Reliable Support & Follow-Through
Consistently delivers on commitments, follows instructions accurately, and keeps team members updated on progress or potential roadblocks.
  • Completes tasks on time and to the required standard. Communicates clearly if a deadline can't be met. Provides accurate summaries of partner communications. Your manager doesn't need to chase you for updates
  • you provide them proactively.
Clear & Professional Communication
Communicates effectively, both written and verbal, with internal colleagues and external partners, maintaining a professional and respectful tone.
  • Emails are well-structured, concise, and error-free. You're polite and helpful when responding to partner queries. You ask for clarification when something isn't clear. You represent the company well in basic interactions.
Organisational Contribution
Actively participates in team meetings, contributes ideas, and helps maintain team resources and documentation.
  • You'll contribute to meeting discussions, even if it's just to share a small update. You keep shared files tidy. You help update programme guides or FAQs when asked. You're seen as a helpful member of the team.

5Would you like it

The honest version. What people enjoy, and what grinds them down.

What people enjoy
Making a Tangible Difference

You'll feel good knowing that your precise data entry or timely payment processing directly helps an NGO deliver its services. Seeing the impact stories from partners, even if you're not on the ground, will be a real boost.

When you see a photo of children benefiting from a programme you helped fund, you'll know your meticulous work on the grant application process made that possible.

Learning & Development

This role is a fantastic launchpad. You'll be constantly exposed to new ideas, different types of social impact work, and the inner workings of a global corporate sustainability function. If you love soaking up knowledge, you'll thrive.

You'll often be asked to research a new potential partner or a specific social issue, giving you direct exposure to the breadth of the sector.

Being Part of a Supportive Team

We're a collaborative bunch. You'll be working closely with your manager and other team members, getting regular feedback and support. If you like contributing to a shared goal and learning from experienced colleagues, you'll fit right in.

You'll have weekly check-ins with your manager, and the team often shares insights and helps each other out with tricky tasks.

What frustrates people
  • Chasing partners for overdue reports or missing information (it happens, a lot).
  • Dealing with internal systems that sometimes feel clunky or slow.
  • The sheer volume of emails and administrative tasks, especially during peak periods.
  • Having to follow strict processes, even if you think there's a better way (at least initially).
  • Not always seeing the immediate, direct impact of your specific tasks.
What this role does not give you
  • High-level strategic decision-making or programme design from day one.
  • A quiet, predictable workload; expect busy periods and urgent requests.
  • Complete autonomy over your projects; most of your work will be guided and reviewed.
  • A role where you're constantly 'out in the field' visiting projects (that comes later).

6Who you work with

Your reliable execution of administrative and coordination tasks directly supports the smooth operation and success of our global community investment programmes. Essentially, you help us keep our promises to partners and employees, which is pretty vital for our reputation and impact.

Inside the business
  • Community Investment Team (Specialists, Managers)
  • Employee Volunteers
  • Internal Communications Team
  • Finance Department (for payments)
  • HR Team (for volunteer programmes)
Outside the business
  • Grantee Partners (NGOs)
  • Community Members (indirectly, via programme support)

7What you need before you start

Not a wish list. The things you would be expected to already have.

  • Exceptional organisational skills; you can juggle multiple tasks without dropping the ball.
  • Meticulous attention to detail; you spot errors that others miss, especially in data.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills; you can articulate clearly and professionally.
  • Proficiency with standard office software (e.g., Microsoft Office Suite, especially Excel and Outlook).
  • A genuine interest in social impact, sustainability, or community development.
  • The ability to work effectively in a team environment, supporting colleagues and contributing to shared goals.

8What to practise next

Where the job is going, and what to do about it starting this week.

Basic AI Prompt Engineering for Research

AI is rapidly changing how we do research and draft communications. Being able to ask the right questions (prompts) to AI tools will make you significantly faster and more effective at gathering information and drafting content. This is about staying competitive and efficient.

Clear Instructions · Context Provision · Output Validation · Iterative Prompting

  • This week: Experiment with ChatGPT or Claude to summarise a news article about a social issue.
  • This month: Use an AI tool to draft a first version of a routine email to a partner, then refine it.
  • Month 2: Try using AI to brainstorm ideas for a volunteer event or a small internal presentation.
  • Month 3: Share your best AI prompts and the results with your team, showing how it helped you.

Quick win: Use AI to help you draft email subject lines or bullet points for a meeting agenda. It's low risk and immediately helpful.

Deeper Understanding of SROI/LBG Frameworks

As you progress, you'll move beyond just collecting data to understanding what that data actually means in terms of social value. The LBG Model is a recognised industry standard for measuring this. Knowing it will be crucial for more strategic roles.

Input vs. Output vs. Outcome vs. Impact · Valuation Principles · The LBG Model Categories · Limitations of Measurement

  • This month: Ask your manager for an overview of our current impact measurement approach and how it links to LBG.
  • Month 2: Read introductory articles or whitepapers on Social Return on Investment (SROI).
  • Month 3: Identify a specific programme and try to map its activities to potential outcomes and impacts.
  • Month 4: Attend an internal or external webinar on impact measurement or the LBG framework.

Quick win: When you're entering data, think about which metrics are 'outputs' and which are 'outcomes'. It's a simple mental shift that helps build understanding.

9Staying current once you are in

What people here do to keep up
  • Join relevant industry webinars or online forums to stay updated on trends in corporate social impact.
  • Volunteer for a local charity or community group to gain first-hand experience of the non-profit sector.
  • Read books or articles on sustainability, philanthropy, and social change to deepen your knowledge.
  • Seek out mentorship from more experienced colleagues within our team to learn from their insights and career journeys.
  • Take advantage of any internal training programmes offered on our grants platforms or data tools.

10How the AI economy is changing work like this

Before we ask anything of you, here's what we can already say about AI and work of this kind:

The new skill this role is being asked for: Data Storytelling (Basic Visualisation)

We're drowning in data, but what really matters is making sense of it and communicating it effectively. Simply presenting numbers isn't enough; we need to tell a compelling story about our impact. This is driven by the increasing demand from internal and external stakeholders for clear, engaging reports.

We'll only ever tell you what we can actually back up. No hype, no scare tactics.

The ten Future Fluencies

Zavmo analysis

The credential is what you can do today. These are what keep you valuable.

A qualification proves you can do the job as it's defined today. These ten are what decide whether you're still the obvious person for it in five years. They're the capabilities employers are now writing into senior roles faster than people are learning them. Zavmo weaves them through whatever you study, so you come out with both: the credential and the fluency.

The highlighted ones are the Fluencies your role leans on hardest, from how Community Investment Coordinator is actually changing. In about two minutes, the free confidence check asks where you stand on each of the ten. That's the whole check, and it's what makes the plan yours rather than generic.

12The team that's yours

No two people are taught the same way. This is one-to-one, not one-to-many.

Zavmo is a hyper-personalised AI learning platform. Twelve virtual tutors, each with a different way of teaching, and one orchestration agent that picks the right one for the moment. So every single lesson is shaped around you, your role, and the way you learn. Not a course everyone sits through. A conversation built for you, and no one else.

…and nine more, matched to you after your first chat. Meet all twelve

13What it feels like

A conversation, not a course

Because your tutor knows your role, your projects and your last session, learning sounds like this. And it's different for every single person:

A course is written once and handed to everyone. This is assembled around you, and keeps changing as it learns you. Five things it reads, and what each one changes.

  1. Your actual work Every lesson is taught against a live piece of your own work, not a worked example from a textbook.
  2. What you already know The first conversation finds your starting point, so you skip what you can already do and spend the time on what you cannot.
  3. The conditions you learn under Not a learning-styles quiz. The evidence does not support those. The dimensions the research does back, read once and used to shape the plan.
  4. How far you got last time It picks up mid-thought. The tutor knows what you said, what you struggled with, and what it asked you to try.
  5. Which tutor suits the moment Twelve of them, each for a different kind of thinking. The one who walks you through a first idea is not the one who stress-tests it.

See how you learn, free. Eight questions, no sign-up. A directional taster; the diagnostic inside Zavmo goes deeper and keeps adapting.

Working with AI on the job

Working with AI

Where AI is starting to help

Let's be real, the administrative side of community investment can be a bit of a time sink. But what if you could offload some of those repetitive tasks to an intelligent assistant? Imagine getting back hours each week to focus on more interesting work, learning, and really connecting with our mission. That's exactly what AI can offer you in this role.

As a Community Investment Coordinator, you'll be on the front lines of data entry, communication, and basic research. AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to make you incredibly efficient. Think of it as having a tireless, super-fast intern who handles the grunt work, leaving you free to refine your skills, build relationships, and understand the bigger picture of our impact. It's about working smarter, not just harder.

Grant Application Screener

Instead of manually sifting through every grant application, AI can quickly scan submissions for eligibility (e.g., non-profit status, geographic focus) and flag any missing documents or non-compliant entries. You'll then review the AI's findings, saving you hours of initial sifting and letting you focus on the most promising applications right away. It's like having a super-efficient filter.

Partner Comms Drafter

Need to send out a reminder about a reporting deadline to 50 different partners? AI can generate personalised draft emails for each, ensuring consistent tone and accuracy, based on templates you provide. You'll then quickly review and send them, cutting down on repetitive writing and ensuring no one is missed. It's a huge time-saver for routine outreach.

NGO Research Assistant

When you need to do quick research on a potential new partner or a specific social issue, AI can rapidly summarise public information—like their mission, key programmes, or recent news. This gives you a concise brief to start from, rather than spending ages trawling through websites. You'll still need to validate and dig deeper, but the initial legwork is done for you.

Data Summary Generator

After you've entered grantee data, AI can help you quickly summarise key trends or pull out specific data points from larger datasets. For instance, it could identify the top 5 areas of investment or the most common challenges reported by partners, helping you prepare for team meetings much faster. You'll use this to inform your manager, not make decisions.

The honest bit

You’ve started things before

Most of them were built for a room full of people who aren’t you. A cohort moves on whether or not your week allowed it, and by the third week the thing you’re behind on becomes the reason you stop opening it.

There’s no cohort here, and no timetable to fall behind. Before anything starts, Zavmo asks when you’re sharpest and how long you can realistically sit down for, then builds the sessions around those answers. A bad fortnight changes your pace. It doesn’t put you behind.

And you only pay once you start learning. Searching and planning are free, and you can cancel any time — so the cost of finding out is an afternoon, not a year.

What it costs

Less than one coaching session. Every month.

A single career-coaching hour costs more than a month of this, and it ends when the hour does. Zavmo doesn't. It's £70 a month, about £2.30 a day, for a companion that knows a Community Investment Coordinator, works on the job you actually do, and keeps going at your pace rather than a timetable's.

  • Searching and planning stay free. You only pay when you start learning.
  • Your credits are yours. Regulated, and they don't vanish when a subscription ends.
  • Cancel any time and billing stops. No notice period, no minimum term.

Your path, personalised

You have the map. Walking it is the part we do together.

This route runs to 10 national skill standards. That is a real journey.

Zavmo shapes a learning experience as unique as you are. It fits how you learn, your pace and the work you already do. Every step stays benchmarked to recognised national standards. That’s the plan for becoming a Community Investment Coordinator: personal to you, and it still counts. The first steps are free.

Independent research finds well-designed intelligent tutoring performs nearly as well as one-to-one human tutoring: VanLehn (2011), Educational Psychologist.

Other roles at Level 2

Same depth of qualification, different job. Useful if the work appeals but this particular role does not.

Other roles in Sustainability Corporate Social

Stay in the field you know and move sideways rather than up.

If you leave this industry

The skills you'll gain here are highly transferable. You could move into broader ESG roles, work for a large non-profit in a grants management or programme role, or even transition into corporate communications or HR, given the focus on employee engagement and storytelling. The sustainability sector is growing, and good people are always in demand.
