Fund for Global Human Rights, Vice President, Resource Mobilization and Engagement

Fund for Global Human Rights

About Fund for Global Human Rights

Fund for Global Human Rights (FGHR) was founded in 2002 by a small group of activists and donors with a simple idea: that funding should go directly to people whose rights have been violated, because they are best placed to develop sustainable solutions and push for transformational change. Since then, we’ve delivered over $166 million to human rights activists, organizations, and movements in more than 90 countries.

FGHR is a catalyst for people-powered change. We partner with frontline activists, grassroots movements, and community-led organizations advancing justice, equity, and human rights around the world. Our locally based program staff are deeply rooted in the movements and communities we serve in East Africa, Latin America, North Africa, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and West Asia. By forging long-term, trusted relationships with frontline groups, we're able to deliver long-term flexible funding and strategic support that is uniquely tailored to the complex and rapidly evolving contexts where we work.

FGHR is a workplace grounded in dignity, compassion, and shared purpose. Our culture, anchored by the values of respect, integrity, agility, sustainability, and inclusivity, reflects the world we are working to build.

About the Role

The Vice President for Resource Mobilization and Engagement will be a visionary leader and strategic architect who will accelerate FGHR’s ability to mobilize powerful resources, influential networks, and global visibility for human rights movements.

This role sits at the intersection of philanthropy, global influence, narrative leadership, and movement power. The VP leads and integrates three mission critical functions: institutional fundraising, individual giving, and communications & engagement to drive a cohesive strategy that grows and diversifies FGHR’s financial and relational capital critical functions.

This is an extraordinary opportunity for a seasoned leader who thrives on cultivating high-level relationships, engaging with global philanthropic influencers, and shaping bold strategies that fuel long-term, values-aligned impact level relationships.

As a key member of the Senior Leadership Team, the VP helps guide organizational strategy, strengthen public presence, elevate partner narratives, and ensure that resources flow in ways that honor equity and movement priorities.

About Depaul UK

In the 1980s, high unemployment and steep inflation was contributing to a shocking rise in youth homelessness across London. Thousands of young people were sleeping rough every night, with many areas notoriously dubbed “cardboard cities” due to the visible rise in street homelessness. Appalled by the scenes playing out across the capital, a group of people came together to tackle the challenge head on. Led by Cardinal Basil Hume and Mark McGreevy OBE, in 1989 Depaul UK was born.

What began as a single housing project in North London soon expanded across London, Greater Manchester and the North East of England. Today, Depaul UK provides accommodation, prevention and support services to thousands of marginalised young people across the UK each year.

As our name suggests, the work of Depaul UK has been inspired by St. Vincent de Paul – a man who devoted his life to helping vast numbers of people throughout the 17th century. St. Vincent de Paul’s belief in the intrinsic worth of all people and his commitment to taking bold action remain central to our values today. Depaul UK now forms part of a family of Depaul charities around the world. We each focus on the specific challenges in our own countries, but we’re united by our shared values and mission to end homelessness.

Please note this role is advertised by the recruitment agency acting for the client – Not For Profit People.

Use your leadership abilities to strengthen and encourage the persecuted church around the world.

Today 388 million Christians experience high levels of violence and oppression for their faith. And the shocking thing is that most people in the UK don’t know about it. Open Doors UK and Ireland raises awareness about the growing levels of persecution and enables people to join a huge underground global network which is keeping the church alive in the most dangerous and difficult contexts - despite the determined efforts of extremists to eradicate Christianity.

As we identify with people suffering for their faith, through prayer, giving and taking action, we see our faith grow. We see the church here become the mature body that we are called, in Scripture, to be.

We are now seeking a Chief Executive Officer to lead this work through a season of missional growth, opportunity and ambition. The CEO will be pivotal in raising the profile of the persecuted church, deepening connections with the church in the UK and Ireland and influencing Government to protect Christians around the world.

To that end, the CEO will be a strategic leader, highly relational in approach, agile and nimble in mindset, delivery-oriented and passionate about strengthening the church.

If that sounds like you please see the job pack attached and prayerfully consider applying. You can expect to have your own faith, reading of Scripture and prayer-life, transformed!
