This is a hands-on role for someone who can hit the ground running and deliver value quickly. The Analyst will take ownership of a range of data and business analysis tasks — from building dashboards, interrogating fundraising data, and ensuring business processes are followed, to drawing actionable insights that inform strategy and unlock new opportunities.

The role requires someone who can look beyond the numbers, understand the business need, and work independently to provide recommendations that improve fundraising performance and decision-making.

Key Responsibilities :

Build and maintain Power BI dashboards that provide clarity on fundraising performance and pipeline health.

Manage and analyze Salesforce data, ensuring data quality and process adherence.

Deliver clear reports and insights that support leadership decision-making.

Business & Process Analysis

Monitor compliance with fundraising SOPs and highlight areas of risk or inconsistency.

Provide training and support to fundraising colleagues on tools and reporting processes.

Identify inefficiencies or gaps in systems and propose improvements.

Insight Generation

Analyse data to uncover patterns, risks, and opportunities for fundraising growth.

Use desktop and secondary research to generate insights

Leverage AI and research tools to deepen insights into donor trends and funding opportunities as well as enhance our data and insight capabilities.

Translate findings into actionable recommendations for leadership and frontline fundraisers.

Collaboration

Act as a thought partner to the Fundraising Data Analysis & Reporting Head.

Engage across fundraising teams to understand their needs and proactively provide solutions.

Contribute to donor proposals and reporting by supplying data-driven evidence.

Job Requirements

Competencies, qualifications and experience needed for the role :

Essential :

Bachelor’s degree in data Analytics, Business, Economics, Environmental Science, or related field.

2–4 years’ experience in data / business analysis, preferably within fundraising, NGOs, or related sectors.

Strong experience with Power BI (dashboards, data models) and Salesforce.

Proven ability to interpret data and generate insights that add strategic value.

Strong process orientation and ability to enforce SOPs.

Excellent communication skills, with the confidence to present findings and train others.

Self-starter : proactive, curious, and able to work independently with limited supervision.

Desirable :

Experience in fundraising intelligence or donor market research.

Knowledge of impact measurement or international development funding trends.

Interest in applying AI and automation to strengthen analysis.

Passion for conservation and Africa’s natural heritage.
