About Client

Philanthropy Ireland are the independent body supporting philanthropy in Ireland. Representing a diverse and engaged membership, they promote best practice, inform government policy, and raise awareness of strategic giving as an effective driver of social change. While their membership is diverse, they share the same mission: to strengthen the social sector by advancing knowledge, practice and understanding of philanthropy.

Philanthropy Ireland is now seeking to recruit an empathetic, motivated and inquisitive Impact Research Lead. This is a key support role, presenting a unique opportunity to positively contribute to the development of our offering to support our community of members and wider stakeholders in advancing knowledge and understanding of philanthropy in Ireland.  

The successful candidate will be a strong team player, flexible in approach and a fast learner. Innovation, creativity, and curiosity will be key for effective delivery. The ideal candidate will have experience in research and the ability to collate, analyse, and synthesise relevant information in order to support progress within Philanthropy Ireland.
