About Us
Sport has the power to bring people together, build stronger communities, support individual development and positively change lives. The Sport for Development Coalition (SFDC) was born out of a shared belief in sport’s potential to play a greater role in addressing social issues across the UK.
The SFDC is a collective movement of organisations (and networks) that collaborate to be greater than the sum of its parts. Currently consisting of over 150 organisations, and funded via confirmed grant funding from Sport England, Comic Relief and Laureus Sport for Good.
Over the next four years the SFDC will build, and then make the case for sport for development – allowing it to unlock additional investment and resource for the sector. This will be achieved through a focus on three core pillars of work: Impact, Advocacy and Investment.
The Engagement and Insight Officer will make a key contribution to the vision and mission of the Coalition through co-ordinating support services to the movement and helping build and make the case for sport for development. The role will co-ordinate engagement and consultation with sector stakeholders, help deliver events and activities that contribute to the SFDC’s advocacy on behalf of the movement and support the collation of data, research and resources to assist sport for development organisations enhance and demonstrate impact.
You will be working alongside staff in the offices of the Sport and Recreation Alliance and Commonwealth Games England. Staff from the Sport and Recreation Alliance were recently asked to describe the organisation. The top five responses were: friendly, fun, caring, supportive and welcoming.
The Sport and Recreation Alliance (SRA) has hosted the SFDC from June 2020 and will employ the Engagement and Insights Officer to support the delivery of the strategy of the Coalition.
