Expected duration: 1 - 2 weeks We are seeking a highly meticulous and experienced freelance researcher to compile a comprehensive and verified database of 100 UK charities for business development and outreach purposes. This list should not include RSPCA branches. This database will be a critical tool for our direct outreach efforts, and as such, data accuracy, freshness, and relevance are paramount. The successful candidate will have a proven track record in B2B data compilation, specifically within the UK charity sector, and possess strong skills in LinkedIn prospecting and data verification.
Scope of Work: The primary objective is to research, identify, and compile a detailed database of 100 UK charities that currently employ between 5 and 100 employees. Whilst this may include animal welfare charities, it should not include RSPCA branches. All charities must be based and operating within the United Kingdom only. Required Data Fields for Each Charity: For each of the 100 charities, the researcher must accurately collect and verify the following information: * Charity Name: Full legal name of the charity. * Charity Registration Number: UK Charity Commission registration number. * Website URL: Current and active website address. * Head Office Address: Full postal address of the charity's main office. * General Contact Email: Main, publicly available email address (though direct contacts are prioritized below). * General Contact Phone Number: Main, publicly available phone number. * Key Decision-Maker/Relevant Contact 1 (e.g., CEO, Head of Fundraising, Head of Operations): * Full Name * Job Title * Direct Business Email Address (Crucial: Must NOT be a general info@ or enquiries@ email) * Direct Phone Number (if publicly available and verified) * LinkedIn Profile URL (Must be current and verified) * Key Decision-Maker/Relevant Contact 2 (e.g., another senior manager, trustee): * Full Name * Job Title * Direct Business Email Address (Crucial: Must NOT be a general info@ or enquiries@ email) * Direct Phone Number (if publicly available and verified) * LinkedIn Profile URL (Must be current and verified) * Employee Count Verification: Confirmation of employee count within the 5-100 range, with a note on the source of this information (e.g., LinkedIn, Charity Commission Annual Return, news article). * Brief Charity Description: A 1-2 sentence summary of the charity's primary mission/activities. Data Verification Requirements & Quality Standards: This is the most critical aspect of this project. Inaccurate or outdated information will render the database useless. * Email Address Verification: All direct email addresses must be individually verified for deliverability (e.g., using a reliable email verification tool). Bounced emails will not be accepted. General inquiry emails (e.g., info@, contact@, enquiries@) are not acceptable for the "Key Decision-Maker" contacts. * LinkedIn Profile Verification: All LinkedIn profiles provided must belong to the correct individual, be active, and appear to be regularly updated. * Phone Number Verification: Where direct phone numbers are provided, they should be tested or verified for accuracy if possible (e.g., by cross-referencing with official charity websites or LinkedIn profiles). * Website Verification: All website URLs must be active and lead directly to the charity's official website. * Employee Count Verification: The source for the employee count must be cited and clearly indicate the charity falls within the 5-100 employee range. * Data Freshness: All data provided must be as current as possible, ideally verified within the last 3 months. * Accuracy Guarantee: The researcher will be expected to guarantee the accuracy of all submitted data. Acceptable Data Sources: * UK Charity Commission website (primary source for registration, annual reports) * Official charity websites * LinkedIn (for individual contact details and employee verification) * Reputable business directories or charity-specific databases (cross-referenced with official sources) * Company House (for financial or director information if relevant for employee count verification) * Reputable news articles or press releases referencing charity size. Deliverable Format Specifications: The final database must be delivered as a well-organized and clearly labelled Microsoft Excel (.xlsx) spreadsheet. * Each piece of data must be in its own separate, clearly labelled column. * The spreadsheet should be free of duplicates. * A separate column must be included for "Source of Employee Count Verification." * A separate column must be included for "Email Verification Status" (e.g., "Verified," "Valid," "Risky" - clearly defined by the researcher's chosen verification tool). Timeline Expectations: Please provide your estimated time to complete the 100 entries in your proposal.
