Do you want to be part of bringing health and hope to vulnerable communities across the globe? Are you highly organised, motivated by your Christian faith and with excellent communication and administration skills that will help us manage relationships with corporate partners to ensure medical aid reaches those who need it?

International Health Partners (IHP) is a global health charity coordinating the safe and responsible donation of medicines and health supplies to people around the world who lack access. We work with a range of corporate partners to support long-term healthcare programmes, equip doctors and other healthcare professionals for short-term medical trips and to respond rapidly to humanitarian disasters. The global outbreak of Covid-19 has further highlighted the urgent need for improving access to medicines and strengthening health systems.

We are seeking a Corporate Partnerships Officer who will be responsible for the coordination and administration of the donations process and support the day to day management of relationships with our corporate donors. This will include liaising with donors on products needed to support our programmes; prospecting new corporate donors; maintaining internal systems; and due diligence processes. The Corporate Partnerships Officer plays a key role in delivering IHP’s effective product donation programme delivering high-quality healthcare products to those in vulnerable and disaster-hit communities so that people don’t suffer needlessly from treatable illnesses.

We are looking for someone who is self-motivated, has an excellent eye for detail, and wants to learn and contribute to a great team. We can offer you a rewarding and varied role, with lots of training and support, in our small but busy team in London. In the last two years we were able to send over 6 million treatments to places like Yemen, South Sudan, Palestine and Guatemala, where easily treatable diseases can mean chronic pain, poor quality of life or even a death sentence.

Please view the full job description and person specification for more details about the role.

IHP is an Equal Opportunities Employer. Staff regularly spend time together praying for IHP’s work and there is an occupational requirement for the post holder to have a personal commitment to the Christian faith.  Please make it clear in the application how you meet this requirement.

Pro Bono Community is looking for a part-time Training and Volunteer Coordinator to help us run projects aimed at improving the amount and quality of access to justice by training law students and others and then placing them to work as volunteers at Law Centres and advice agencies.

Pro Bono Community is a registered charity that has developed specialised training programmes for students, trainees and lawyers specialising in the practical skills involved in delivering free legal advice and areas of social welfare law. In conjunction with the training, the charity coordinates volunteering placements at Law Centres and other advice agencies.

The Training and Volunteer Coordinator will report to and work alongside the Director to undertake work supporting the charity’s activities with a focus on recruiting and training students, trainees and lawyers and then coordinating volunteering placements for them at Law Centres and advice agencies.

This is a part-time, three days a week role although it is hoped that there will be scope to make it a full-time position in the future. The charity is seeking to appoint someone with knowledge of training and the advice sector and/or experience in a similar role. The position will carry a full-time equivalent salary of £26,500-28,500 depending on the level of experience offered. Occasional weekend work may be required.
