As a part of the Supporter Experience team, this will also mean working with the other members of the team to understand our supporters and using this information to inform and improve our engagement strategy.
You will work closely with the Supporter Insights and Analytics Manager, the head of Supporter Experience, and other key stakeholders on other projects as required.
