About CARE
CARE International is a global humanitarian organisation leading the fight to end poverty in the world’s most challenging situations. Women and girls are at the centre of our work, because we cannot overcome poverty and inequality until all people have equal rights and opportunities. We know that when a crisis erupts, women are often the first to pick up the pieces, so we work alongside women, so they have the power to make change where it’s needed most. Founded in 1945, CARE currently works in over 100 countries and last year alone reached 53.4 million people through nearly 1,500 projects.
Lendwithcare was founded by CARE International UK in 2010, allowing individuals to make a direct impact on the lives of small business owners. Lendwithcare provides a revolutionary way to help people in low-income countries to work their way out of poverty with dignity. Through Lendwithcare, members of the public can lend as little as £15 to fund a small business owner. The money is used to grow their business, and once the money is repaid, lenders can choose to recycle their loan to support more low-income entrepreneurs, make a donation to support CARE or withdraw their funds. As of April 2026, Lendwithcare facilitated over 2 million individual loans to support more than 230,00 small business owners with loan support totalling over £62 million.
Why work for CARE International UK?
It is an exciting time to join Lendwithcare, as CARE rolls out its new Voluntary Income Fundraising Strategy. With extra investment over the coming years due to our recent successes, Lendwithcare will be growing its acquisition activity to recruit and retain new supporters and encourage them to take a range of actions, from lending to regular giving.
Working within a passionate team of colleagues, this role will be vital to recruiting and retaining Lendwithcare supporters, ensuring that vital loan funding is raised every month, and helping Lendwithcare to hit fundraising targets.
About you
The Lendwithcare Marketing Executive will be a self-starter keen to take on a diverse and exciting workload to support Lendwithcare’s objectives. The successful candidate will be an experienced copywriter with highly developed editorial skills and a creative eye. We expect you to have strong experience in recruiting and managing volunteers, as this is crucial to delivering high levels of loan funding through the Lendwithcare platform.
The successful candidate will also have marketing or fundraising experience, enabling them to take the lead on a range of supporter communications covering both new supporter acquisition and retention. While this is not essential, an interest in microfinance/financial inclusion would certainly be a bonus. If this sounds like you, we strongly encourage you to apply.
About the role
Working closely with the Lendwithcare Marketing Manager, the Lendwithcare Marketing Executive will deliver an exciting range of supporter communications and fundraising campaigns to drive loan funding and increase donations. In addition, the role will oversee the approval of up to 600 loan profiles published to the Lendwithcare website each month. This will include working closely with Lendwithcare colleagues to ensure a steady supply of profiles from local partners and growing a team of remote volunteers to edit the text provided to a high standard. The Lendwithcare Marketing Executive will play a crucial role in helping Lendwithcare to drive both loan funding and donations to support CARE’s mission across both acquisition and retention. This means working across both paid advertising campaigns (including Meta), key supporter emails, and other channels as required.
