Church Engagement & Fundraising Officer
12-month Fixed Term Contract. Full Time, Home-based
Location: London and the South East of England
Salary: £44,500 per annum
About us
Christian Aid exists to create a world where everyone can live a full life, free from poverty. We are a global movement of people, churches and local organisations who passionately champion dignity, equality and justice worldwide. We are the changemakers, the peacemakers, the mighty of heart.
We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace, and recognise the value this brings in forming strong, creative and high performing teams. We welcome applications from all sections of the community, and from those with experience from outside of the voluntary sector. And no, you don’t have to be Christian to work here – we encourage people of all faiths and none to apply. We just ask that everyone lives out our values of dignity, equality, justice and love. We value a good work-life balance, so we’re open to part-time and flexible working. We also offer hybrid working for our office-based colleagues. This is a homeworking role and you are expected to be in the London office once a month
About the role
Reporting in to the Church Engagement & Fundraising Advisor, the Church Engagement & Fundraising Officer is a proactive fundraising and church engagement role.
You will be out in churches and communities across London and the home counties, building new relationships, strengthening existing high-value support, and inspiring churches to give, act and pray with Christian Aid.
You will identify and approach prospective churches, pick up the phone to book meetings, speak confidently in church services and local gatherings, and make compelling asks that lead to increased giving and deeper engagement.
This is a remote team to facilitate post holders to be proactively present in local church communities. Much of your impact will come from being out and about: visiting churches, meeting clergy and volunteers, attending local events, speaking at services, and building relationships face to face. You should expect regular travel across London and the home counties, including some evenings and weekends.
We are looking for someone who is energised by being out in the community, not someone looking for a primarily desk-based role.
In this role, success will mean:
A significant part of this role will be proactive new relationship-building. You will not only respond to churches already connected with Christian Aid; you will identify new opportunities, approach churches and leaders, and work creatively to open doors for giving, fundraising, campaigning and prayer.
About you
Who we are looking for:
Essential:
Desirable:
This role would suit you if you are a confident relationship-builder who enjoys getting out into communities, opening doors and inspiring people to act. You might come from community fundraising, church engagement, major donor engagement, sales, business development, volunteer mobilisation or a church-facing role with clear fundraising experience.
You will need to be confident talking with churches, meeting ambitious targets, comfortable making asks for financial support, and motivated by helping local communities turn faith, generosity and concern for global justice into practical action.
Further information
At Christian Aid we strive to be an inclusive and diverse employer and recognise the value that this brings in helping to build strong, creative and high performing teams.
We are actively encouraging racialised minorities, LGBTQ+, people with disabilities, returning parents or carers who are re-entering work after a career break, people with caring responsibilities, people from low socioeconomic backgrounds, women, and older workers to apply. This is because these groups are under-represented within our teams, especially at senior level, and we recognise and value the contributions members of these groups make to strong, creative and high performing teams.
We have a strong Christian ethos and we encourage applications from all faiths. Applicants will be expected to demonstrate an understanding of and sympathy with Christian Aid’s faith identity.
All successful candidates will require a DBS/police check appropriate to the role and location and a Counter Terrorism Sanction check as part of your clearance for commencing your role with us. We also participate in the Inter Agency Misconduct Disclosure Scheme. In line with this Scheme, we will request information as part of the referencing process from job applicants’ previous employers about any findings of sexual exploitation, sexual abuse and/or sexual harassment during employment, or incidents under investigation when the applicant left employment. By submitting an application, the job applicant confirms their understanding of these recruitment procedures.
This role requires applicants to have the right to live and work in the country where this position is based and undertake the role that you have been offered. If you are successful and we make you an offer for the role, we will be required to conduct a right to work check on your immigration status in the UK. We will contact you regarding the documentation you will need to provide to evidence this.

Support and Advocacy Practitioner
Kairos Women Working Together is looking for a Support and Advocacy Practitioner to join our specialist women’s organisation in Coventry.
Since 1999, Kairos has walked alongside women facing multiple intersecting disadvantage and therefore subject to, or at risk of, sexual exploitation. Through support, advocacy and community, we work with women to increase options and opportunities, strengthen voice and agency, and empower them to create the futures they want for themselves.
This is an exciting time to join Kairos. We are growing our work through our Women’s Hub, strengthening our specialist support offer, and developing our role as a place of safety, advocacy, community and change for women in Coventry.
About the role
This is a frontline practitioner role providing women-centred, trauma-informed, holistic support.
You will manage a caseload, provide one-to-one support and advocacy, contribute to safeguarding and risk work, support drop-ins and outreach, facilitate group activity, and work closely with partner agencies.
The work is meaningful, challenging and deeply relational. The women we walk alongside are often facing significant trauma, risk, exclusion, crisis and harm. This means the role can be tough. Sometimes very tough. It requires emotional resilience, good boundaries, reflective capacity and the ability to stay grounded when things are complex or uncertain.
But this work is also full of purpose, hope and possibility. At Kairos, you will see the difference that trusted relationships, practical advocacy, women-only spaces and long-term support can make.
Kairos is rooted in feminist values and an analysis of power, inequality and men’s violence against women and girls. Our work is practical and frontline, but it is also activist in nature. We support individual women, and we also seek to challenge the systems, attitudes and injustices that create and sustain harm.
Who we are looking for
We are looking for someone who shares our values of Hope, Compassion, Empowerment, Solidarity, Voice and Justice.
We are not only interested in formal qualifications or traditional career routes. Relevant experience may come from paid work, volunteering, community work, activism, study, caring responsibilities, personal learning or lived experience.
What matters most is your ability to build trust, listen without judgement, hold strong boundaries, manage complexity, advocate clearly, reflect on your practice and work in a way that is rooted in Kairos’ values.
We do not expect anyone to arrive knowing everything. Kairos is a learning organisation, and staff are supported through regular line management, reflective supervision, external clinical supervision and access to relevant training and development.
Diversity, accessibility and lived experience
The voices of women with lived experience are centred in everything that we do. We encourage lived experience across the whole organisation, including volunteers, staff, senior leadership and our board of trustees.
We want Kairos to reflect the diversity of the women we support. We actively encourage applications from Black, minoritised and migrant women; women with disabilities; lesbian and bisexual women; and working-class women.
You will be welcomed, supported and respected in a culture that values authenticity, honesty and sisterhood.
We are committed to making our recruitment process as accessible as possible. If you need information in a different format, reasonable adjustments, or support to take part in the recruitment process, please contact us.

A note on use of AI in applications
We understand that candidates may use AI tools to help prepare an application. However, your application should still reflect you.
This process is a chance for both you and Kairos to understand whether the role will be a good fit. We want to hear about your own experiences, values, skills and perspective. Applications that feel personal, specific and grounded in real examples are much more helpful than generic responses.
