Big Change Project
Big Change Operational Audit
Project:
Big Change would like an external expert to evaluate current high-level operational processes and then, if appropriate, make recommendations for improvement.
Project description:
It is anticipated that the volunteer will:
1. Spend half a day with Noah Bernstein, the Director of Impact & Operations to investigate the current operations and obtain any relevant documentation
2. Spend half a day at Big Change, having 4 45-minute meetings with individual staff members to investigate their activities, time spent on each, and any suggestions they have for improvements.
3. Use the results of the meetings and the documentation to summarise current activities, processes and value added by each. Draft some suggestions for improvements.
4. Run a half-day facilitation session with all staff to discuss findings and possible improvements (if appropriate)
5. Produce a written report with findings of current operations and recommendations for improvements.
Some background in process improvement and facilitation would be useful. This project would suit either a single volunteer or a team of two.
Time commitment: 5 days over 3-4 months
Location: The volunteer(s) would need to spend 3 half-days on site at Big Change (London, W2 6NB). The rest of the work could be carried out remotely.
