Organisational Background 

The Council for At-Risk Academics is a UK-registered charity founded in 1933 under the leadership of William Beveridge, to rescue academics suffering persecution under the rise of Nazism and facilitate their continued work in safety. Sixteen Cara Fellows from the 1930s and 1940s became Nobel Laureates, and many more innovators in their fields, including, Nikolaus Pevsner, Lise Meitner and Karl Popper. A number of Cara’s founders and Council members also personally provided places and/or funds to help individual academics; and Cara, known in the 1930s as the AAC, later the SPSL, was closely involved in the successful effort in 1933 to bring to London the Warburg Institute art library, which had been prohibited by the Nazis, and six of its staff. The Fellowship Programme is the continuation of the rescue mission operation started in 1933.

Cara support is typically framed as temporary sanctuary offered at times of heightened risk. 

Cara Objectives ‘To assist academics who have been, or are, or are at risk of being, subject to discrimination, persecution, suffering or violence on account of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion, to relieve needs among them and their dependants and ensure that their specialist knowledge and abilities can continue to be used for the benefit of the public.’

School Eye Health Rapid Assessment (SEHRA) Scoping Consultancy 

Anticipated timeframe: An initial 7‑day engagement, with the potential to extend up to 6 months.

Location: Nairobi, Kenya

Budget: To be discussed at interview

Start date: The consultant is expected to be available to start on or around 2 March.

Background

Sightsavers, in partnership with the Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education, is implementing a two‑year intervention – the Boresha Macho Project – which aims to strengthen and integrate refractive error services across all levels of care in Kenya. The goal is to build sustainable systems, support long‑term government investment, and contribute to the WHO’s global eye‑care target of achieving a 40-percentage point increase in effective refractive error coverage (eREC).

As part of this intervention, the project will deliver evidence‑generation and learning activities to support accountability, transparency, and continuous improvement. This includes assessing the eye‑health needs of school‑aged children and evaluating compliance with the use of corrective glasses, with the findings informing the planning and monitoring of integrated school eye‑health programmes in Kenya. In line with this objective, Sightsavers intends to conduct a School Eye Health Rapid Assessment exercise in Makueni County, one of the six designated project implementation areas.

What the project will focus on: School Eye Health Rapid Assessment (SEHRA)

The Scoping Module of SEHRA identifies any policy, system or service‑delivery barriers that may affect the implementation of a school eye‑health programme and determines whether conditions are suitable for conducting a full SEHRA. It can be applied at national, sub‑national or district level, and is particularly relevant for public‑sector planning where school eye‑health is integrated into wider health and education systems.

Responsibilities
 

The consultant will support the initial Scoping Module of the School Eye Health Rapid Assessment (SEHRA), which examines the policy, institutional and service‑delivery environment for school eye‑health programmes in the intervention area. This includes reviewing existing school eye‑health activities, sectoral legislation and strategies, institutional structures, human resources, supply chains for glasses and equipment, and cross‑cutting barriers that may affect service delivery. In line with this, the consultant will:

• Conduct an exploratory desk review using key search terms relevant to each SEHRA module component, bookmarking relevant sources and collating documents into organised sub‑folders.
• Review identified sources to build an overall understanding of the policy, strategy, institutional and service‑delivery context for school eye health in the intervention area.
• Produce clear notes highlighting areas requiring deeper exploration through key informant interviews (KIIs) and focus group discussions (FGDs).

This assignment is expected to take no more than seven days, culminating in a desk‑review report summarising findings and recommending areas for further investigation.

Timeline

The consultancy is expected to begin on 2 March, and the consultant must be available to start on or around this date. The initial assignment will span seven days, during which the desk review should be completed and the corresponding report submitted. Depending on project needs and satisfactory delivery, the consultancy may be extended for up to six months.

Skills and Experience

The consultant should bring strong experience in school eye health, public health, or education‑sector systems, with the following expertise:

• A solid understanding of Ministry of Health and Ministry of Education policies, strategies, institutional arrangements, and service‑delivery structures.
• Proven experience conducting desk reviews, key informant interviews (KIIs), and focus group discussions (FGDs).
• Working knowledge of programme development at national or sub‑national level, particularly in eye health, school health, education systems, and related organisational structures.
• Demonstrated experience in qualitative and quantitative research, including the ability to produce clear, analytical programme reports—ideally within the eye‑health sector.
• Credibility and familiarity with national eye‑health bodies, leading eye‑health organisations, and/or national education institutions.
• Sufficient clinical understanding to interpret school eye‑health issues and engage effectively with technical informants.
• Ability to work independently or as part of a local health or social‑policy research organisation.

Payment Terms

The agreed budget will be discussed at interview.

Next Steps

To express your interest to undertake this assignment, please read the complete ToR, and complete our Expression of Interest (EoI) which can be found via the application link by Thursday, 12 February 2026.

The EoI response should include a proposed workplan and indicative budget, including daily rates for the assignment and any other anticipated expenses.

Interested bidders are also requested to include an example of previous similar consultancy work.

The deadline to submit your EoI is Thursday, 12 February 2026 at 23:30pm GMT UK.

Please note: We intend to conduct on site interviews at the Kenya country office week commencing 16th of February 2026 onwards. The interview will last up to one hour and will be the only stage in the recruitment process.

Head of Individual Major Gifts

Greenpeace UK

Location: London, UK

Salary: This role is positioned with a salary range of £63,756 - £70,236 pa.

Greenpeace is a movement of people who are passionate about defending the natural world from destruction.

Our vision is a world where everyone has equal access to clean air, water and energy; where the nature we love is protected, precious habitats are restored and communities are united by ambitious climate action.  To make this a reality, we transform politics, industry and society to create a greener and fairer world.  Our mission is to halve emissions and restore biodiversity by the end of this decade in a fair and equitable way.  Together we show up, we stand up, and we get things done.  And we’ll do it again tomorrow.

In the last five decades, Greenpeace has become one of the foremost environmental organisations in the world, winning victories that have put climate and nature protection on the map. Fast forward to the present day, and we have gained huge momentum. Our movement is booming, environmentalism is mainstream and the solutions are more viable than ever. We look to the future from a position of strength. Now is the time to seize it.

We’re at a pivotal point in human history to turn the tide on climate change and biodiversity loss.  In order to ensure our campaigning efforts continue to be effective and to keep up the pressure on government and businesses, we fundraise from private individuals and charitable trusts and foundations who help us continue our work.  Our high-performing Fundraising Department contributes significantly towards a Global Capital Campaign to raise EUR100M for a new ship, and there is so much more we want and must do.  We are therefore looking for two talented high-value fundraising specialists and leaders to lead key areas of our activity and ensure that we continue to sustainably grow our philanthropic income. 

As the Head of Individual Major Gifts, you will be responsible for leading, managing and developing a programme that will drive income growth from high-value individuals.  This is an opportunity to take on a successful programme to new heights through effectively managing and growing a developed portfolio of donors, as well as lead a small and dedicated team of fundraisers to transform their supporter pipelines.  As a leader within the Key Relationships and wider Fundraising team, you will identify and create opportunities for collaboration across our team, and as our UK Lead for the Global Capital Campaign, you will also play a vital role across our international network of offices. 

Success in this role will therefore require an experienced major gifts professional with a track record of securing 6-figure level gifts (or more) from individual philanthropists, and a strategic approach and enterprising mindset to achieve progress.  A skilled negotiator with gravitas and highly developed interpersonal skills, you will inspire confidence and motivate those around you to rise to the ambition of our mission.  It will be important that you have some experience of line managing others, and getting the best out of the people or teams that you’ve led.  To be a successful leader in our Key Relationships team will require resilience, adaptability, and solutions-focussed approach.

We are at a crucial point in time for both the planet and our futures.  If you are excited by the opportunity to play a significant role in turning the tide on environmental destruction and want to see a fairer, more equitable planet for all through engaging philanthropic support, please consider applying.  We’d love to hear from you.

Greenpeace UK is partnering with Richmond Associates in this search.  For a confidential discussion or to get more information on the role, please contact Richmond Associates by email or call +44 (0)20 3617 9240. You can also download a detailed information pack from their website for more information by following the "Apply" link here.

CLOSING DATE FOR APPLICATIONS IS 9AM GMT, THURSDAY, 19 FEBRUARY 2026

Our commitment to diversity:

We want our team to reflect the diversity of the communities we work alongside. We’re committed to fairness, inclusion, and challenging discrimination and oppression in all its forms.

We know the environmental sector has further to go when it comes to representation. We particularly encourage applications from people of colour, disabled people, and people who identify as working class now or in the past. This is a priority for us, as reflected in our representation targets and our approach to diversity, inclusion and anti-racism.

Don’t meet every single requirement? Research shows that women and people of colour may hesitate to apply unless they meet every area of the person specification. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet all the criteria, we encourage you to apply – you might be exactly who we need.
