About the Role

Christian Aid’s Resilient Futures Fund (CARFF) is an ambitious new initiative mobilising capital for climate adaptation and resilience across the Global South. We are building a pipeline of innovative enterprises supporting communities on the frontline of the climate crisis, and we are now seeking a Senior New Business Development Officer to help drive this mission.

This role sits at the heart of CARFF’s growth. You will shape and deliver a dynamic fundraising and partnership strategy, working closely with the Head of CARFF to cultivate high-value supporters, deepen relationships across the philanthropic and impact investment worlds, and help establish CARFF as one of Christian Aid’s most exciting emerging ventures. You will design compelling donor experiences, use insight and analysis to guide your approach, and work collaboratively across Christian Aid to embed CARFF into wider fundraising efforts.

About You

You will bring a strong track record in securing major gifts or high-value partnerships, confidence in developing fundraising strategies across diverse audiences, and an instinct for building meaningful, long-term relationships. You will be comfortable working in a fast-moving environment, able to translate insight into action, and motivated by the opportunity to shape a new initiative with global reach.
