Railway Children works here in the UK and internationally to support vulnerable children alone and at risk on the streets and at transport hubs. They're best known for their work in India, where thousands of children arrive frightened and alone at rail and bus terminals every day. Some are passing through having fallen prey to groomers, traffickers or drug gangs. Others are lost miles from home.
In this role, you'll be working for an organisation that responds to this need by:
* Training 11,614 British Transport Police and railway staff to identify and support vulnerable children.

This could be the perfect opportunity for either for an ambitious Trusts and Foundations specialist looking to take greater ownership and responsibility, or an experienced fundraiser with a passion for international development looking to have an impact on the lives of vulnerable children.
About you
You'll already have a proven track-record securing funding from trusts, foundations and/or institutions and statutory funders. However, you don't necessarily need to come with previous international experience (though, of course, you'd be very welcome to apply if you do).
Here's what we'll need to see on your profile or CV to make an application:
* Experience of securing multi-year funding from trusts, foundations or institutional funders.
* Ability to write compelling, persuasive and accurate copy.
* Understanding of how to translate complex material into digestible formats for different audiences.
* Highly organised and confident self-starter, able to juggle multiple deadlines and priorities.
