We give poor families and communities the hope and the means to secure their own futures from the land, in line with our vision of a confident and thriving rural Africa.

Working with over 700,000 people a year across six countries, our approach has been developed for, and with, the communities we work with. That’s why it works. We don’t impose solutions, we help grow them from within. With our support, families get back the skills and confidence they need to make the most of their land – enabling them to grow enough food, earn a living and go after their dreams. And because the families we work with pass on what they know, success quickly multiplies from family to family, community to community, generation to generation.

This African-centred approach is proving effective and attracting the attention of potential funders and donors nationally and globally. That’s why we believe we can do more. To that end, we have just started developing an ambitious 10-year strategy to significantly increase the scale and impact of our work. It will be centred on maximising our contribution to delivering the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030 and working in deeper partnership with other INGOs with complementary skills and expertise.

This is an exciting and pivotal time to join Send a Cow.  We’re looking a strong, strategic leader who shares our vision and values to head up our newly created team of Fundraising Operations. You will oversee the delivery of all aspects of supporter journeys, data analysis, legacy management and compliance, ensuring that analysis and insight drives the development of new products and engagement activities across all income streams.
