About us:
Compassion in World Farming International is a leading global organisation dedicated to ending factory farming worldwide. We were founded in 1967 by Peter Roberts, a British farmer alarmed by the rise of intensive factory farming. Over the past 50 years, we have made significant strides in abolishing inhumane practices such as barren battery cages, veal crates, and sow gestation crates in the UK and Europe. Our headquarters is in Godalming, Surrey, UK. Compassion in World Farming, Inc. is an important international presence for CIWF in the USA and celebrates its 10-year anniversary this year. We have international representation in over 10 countries.
Our approach involves advocacy and campaigning, building a movement of individuals concerned about animal welfare, human health, and environmental sustainability, and working with food businesses to drive significant change in their global supply chains. We are driven by a passion for animal welfare and food system change, believing in a future where animals are treated with dignity and respect, and where sustainable farming practices prevail for a healthy planet.
Join us in our mission to create a more compassionate world for all beings.
About the role:
As our US Associate Director of Philanthropy, you will join a talented, driven and passionate global fundraising team, and have a vital role in leading our philanthropy program in the US in support of our mission to end factory farming for the benefit of animals, people and the planet.

You will need to have proven experience with mentoring and leading high-performing team members. You’ll have previous experience in budgetary management and be well-versed in IT applications, such as Microsoft Office and fundraising databases, experience working for an international non-profit, and/or in the animal welfare / environmental space would be an advantage.
