Who we are
We’ve been on the frontline of the world’s response to HIV and AIDS for over 25 years, working with marginalised people who are denied HIV prevention and treatment simply because of who they are and where they live.
Set up in 1993 to work with community groups in the countries most affected by the global AIDS epidemic, we’ve continually adapted our approach, looking for innovative ways to break down the barriers that marginalise people living with, or at risk of acquiring, HIV. All with one goal in mind – a future free from AIDS for everyone, everywhere.
Everything we do is rooted in our two key beliefs:
- That the lives of all human beings are of equal value.
- That everyone has the right to access the HIV information and services they need for a healthy life.
Today, we work with communities in more than 40 countries, taking local, national and global action on HIV, health and human rights.
As a global partnership that is open to everyone, we can only do what we do – and achieve what we want to achieve – by working with partners from grassroots community groups to national governments. Our partners drive change where it matters, shaking up the status quo and making a noise on issues the world often chooses to ignore.
Are you the Candidate we’re looking for?
Looking for someone with a passion for providing great HR support and a keen eye for detail. This role will join our People and OD team to support our colleagues in all locations to ensure a consistent and great employee experience.

About the role
You will be joining a highly motivated and ambitious team, with recent success of securing seven figure grants from global foundations. This role looks to continue and build on this success with a focus on building high-impact high value relationships with US, European and UK trusts and Foundations.
This is an exciting role, in which you will be responsible for directing the strategy in growth areas to secure new six and seven figure grants. You will get to cultivate new opportunities as well as strategically manage relationships and grants with existing donors. You will get to work globally with regional and country teams to develop strong bids and produce quality reports. You will also work closely with colleagues and senior management across the organisation and represent Christian Aid externally in global forums.
About you
We're looking for someone who has exceedingly strong relationship building skills and a good level of technical knowledge to attract and grow new business. You will have a track record in securing strategic grants at the six-figure plus level. A natural networker with the ability to generate new leads, you're motivated by converting prospective givers into donors. We're also looking for someone who has experience in producing in-depth, motivating and inspiring proposals and funding reports for funders.
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. To discuss this role in greater detail, please contact Jude Sadler [email protected]
We have a strong Christian ethos and we encourage applications from all faiths and none (with the exception of Director positions where there is a genuine occupational requirement to be a practicing Christian - Exempted under the Equality Act 2010).
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.
You can expect a wide range of rewards and benefits, including a generous holiday allowance, a season ticket loan, and flexibility that will ensure you enjoy a good work/life balance
