The Communications & Partnerships Officer plays a key supporting role within the Foundation, helping to enhance our visibility, strengthen relationships with partners, and ensure our strategy is effectively communicated internally and externally.

The Spectris Foundation is a UK-registered charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) created in 2021 with a £15m endowment from Spectris. We exist to advance STEM education globally, removing barriers and nurturing talent so that learners of all backgrounds can access high-quality, meaningful STEM opportunities. Our 2026–2031 strategy sets an ambitious direction—centred on impact, inclusion, long-term partnerships and strengthening the ecosystem for STEM learning.

We support charitable organisations through grant‑making, strategic partnerships, and a funder plus approach that adds value beyond grants. Our work spans multiple countries where Spectris operates and beyond, with a strong commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion.
