Babyzone, Scale Space, White City, London
Backed by significant new multi-year philanthropic investment, we are building the data and evaluation infrastructure that enables Babyzone to evaluate and improve its work at scale — capturing what happens across every hub, tracking outcomes for children and families over time, and translating the evidence into national influence.
This is a new, senior role to lead that work. We are looking for a genuinely high-calibre data scientist and leader who can elevate everything we do to measure activity, capture insight, evidence impact, and strengthen monitoring and evaluation across the whole organisation — while working at the frontier of what AI makes possible.
As Head of Data & Impact, you will own how Babyzone measures its activity, understands its families, and evidences its impact across every hub and central function.
You will build our data infrastructure end to end, from frontline capture to longitudinal outcome tracking, and establish a modern, AI-enabled approach to analysis, evaluation and reporting.
This is a senior leadership role with a hands-on, build-it mindset: as comfortable architecting a data pipeline or standing up an AI workflow as coaching a frontline team in a hub.
You will be the internal counterpart to our external academic advisers and Research & Impact Advisory Board, translating rigorous methods into practical systems, and turning our evidence into influence with funders and policymakers.
You will be employed directly by Babyzone and will be part of an ambitious, fast-growing charity working to improve outcomes for young children and families.
Any additional benefits applicable to the role will be confirmed as part of the recruitment process and will be in line with Babyzone's employment terms and policies.
Babyzone is committed to building an inclusive and diverse workforce and welcomes applications from all backgrounds.
We particularly welcome applications from people with backgrounds and lived experience reflecting the families and communities Babyzone serves.
Babyzone is an innovative and fast-growing UK early childhood charity. We run free, open-access community hubs for families with children aged 0–5 in areas of high deprivation, with no booking or referral needed.
Since launching in 2019, we have grown to 14 hubs across England, Wales and Scotland, welcomed more than 100,000 parent and child visits — over 70% from the most deprived communities — and we are on track to reach 20 hubs by the end of 2027.
Our hubs are evidence-informed spaces, with programmes co-developed alongside families, practitioners and world-leading researchers, then rigorously evaluated and improved. More than 300 partner organisations — including NHS teams, local authorities and specialist charities — co-locate in our hubs to create a joined-up local system for families.
We hold research partnerships with leading universities and are building the definitive evidence base for what works in the early years.
