Reporting to: Partner Journey Supervisor
Responsible for: Communications with our donors, sponsors, and inquirers
Location: 122 Braymere Road, Hampton, Peterborough, PE7 8NB
Weekly Hours: 40 hours per week
Salary: £30,000 pa
WELCOME TO GFA WORLD
Since 1979, we have been committed to serving the “least of these” in Asia and Africa, primarily in places where no-one has ever heard the name of Jesus, so that those still waiting can experience the love of God for the first time. We are partnered with national missionaries serving as the hands and feet of Christ in Asia and Africa, helping children in poverty and suffering, and running community development initiatives to help families in need of care or during disasters.
As a Christian missions order we function as a community, and by joining GFA World you'll be joining a family that's doing life together, journeying towards Jesus, living for eternity, and making a difference for some of the poorest and most afflicted people on earth, in Christ's name.
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
Our impact on the mission field is fueled by the faithful donations and prayers of our sponsors and donors in the UK and Europe. These are our "partners" in the Gospel, labouring with us in prayer, giving sacrificially, raising a voice for the needs on the mission field, and often finding meaning in Jesus' call on their lives.
Most people don't realise how much need there is, nor how they can make a difference to it, while for some it doesn't yet matter. We aim to be a window into the mission field, to help people see the multitudes and be moved with compassion, and begin to take steps to make that difference as a partner of GFA World. This is their "Partner Journey".
Today thousands of people in the world will die without ever having had a chance to hear of Jesus' love for them, and we exist to give more people that chance before it's too late. We currently have about 1,500 generous partners, and we hope to double that in the next 5 years.
In this role you will serve as a vital link between the church in the UK and Europe and the mission fields of Asia and Africa.
YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES
You will help people find their path on our "Partner Journey". You will function as part of a team, and have training in each aspect of the team's ministries, but you will only be responsible for certain ones or parts of them at any one. These functions include, but are not limited to:
• Point of Contact
• Donor Services
• Sponsor Relations
• Posting Materials
• Corporate Prayer
Point of Contact
Our sixth Core Value is "Having A Servant Lifestyle", and one way we do that is by answering phone calls and e-mails from our partners and inquirers. You and the team will be the voice of GFA World to the UK and Europe, representing the mission field to them. We will train you to answer queries, process requests, and share stories from the mission field.
Donor Services
Our second Core Value is "Being A People Of Integrity And Excellence", and one key way we live that out is proper handling of donations from our faithful partners. You and the team will receive donations and record them in our database, and send the appropriate acknowledgments to those who gave them.
Sponsor Relations
Part of our Mission Statement is to "fulfil the Great Commission through sending out qualified labourers in partnership with the body of Christ". There's no better way to see that happen than to help believers here sponsor missionaries in mission field areas. You and the team will help people initiate and maintain their sponsorship commitments, sending them photo profiles, testimonies, and updates.
Posting Materials
We can't take everyone to the mission field to experience what God is doing, the next best things is to give them materials which tell the story, and challenge them to think about others. You and the team will be helping that happen by sending people our mission minded materials and books.
Corporate Prayer
Our fifth Core Value is "Being A People Committed To Prayer And Worship", and GFA World started with a Tuesday Night Prayer Meeting. It is fueled by prayer, and would die out without it. We maintain this tradition and require all staff to take part in praying for the needs of a dying world, to ensure we are always depending upon the Holy Trinity for grace for His work.
ABOUT THE APPLICANT
We recognise that, to be great at your role, there are certain characteristics that are important and others that enable a good fit within our existing team and culture. But if you don’t meet them, get in touch anyway! you may be more awesome that you realise.
• You are a practising Christian who reads the Bible and has attended a local church for at least 2 years
• Proven experience in administrative roles
• Excellent organisational and time management skills
• Strong attention to detail
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office suite (Word, Excel, Outlook)
• Experience with database management
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work independently and as part of a team
• You’d like to make a difference for people in other countries, even though you may never meet them in person

• You are able to communicate effectively in spoken and written English
• Have excellent verbal and written communication skills and be able to communicate clearly and effectively to internal and external Partners and team members.
• Ability to develop a rapport quickly with internal and external Partners, adopting a friendly and confident approach with a wide range of Partner types.
NOTE: As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement (OR) under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to:
• be a practising Christian, and current active membership of a local church
• subscribe to our statement of faith and the Nicene Creed (see below)
• demonstrate a personal commitment to our Mission and Core Values
• participate in, and sometimes lead, our times of Christian prayer
• be willing to work with Christians from various denominations
GFA WORLD’S STATEMENT OF FAITH
WE BELIEVE:
• That the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God, given to us by the Church – “the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).
• The Nicene Creed to be the official Creed of the Holy Church.
• In one God, Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that these three are co-eternal and of equal dignity and power.
• In the deity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His death on a cross; His bodily resurrection; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and His personal, imminent return.
• That man was created by and for God; that by man’s disobeying God, every person incurred spiritual death, which meant they were no longer in communion with God, and physical death was the consequence; and that all people are given the option of being redeemed and restored to God.
• The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that all who believe in Him are declared righteous because of His victory over death and are, therefore, in right relationship with God.
• Salvation means far more than being “saved from sin; we are saved for sonship, to be divinely adopted sons and daughters of God. Forgiveness is the precondition for God’s greater gift, the gift that will last beyond our death: the gift of divine life” (1 Corinthians 15:3-7).
• Believers in Christ are destined to share in the life of the Holy Trinity. Sharing in the life of God, as God has shared in our humanity (1 Peter 1:4).
• In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit indwelling all believers and thus enabling and empowering the life and ministry of the believer.
• In the bodily resurrection of everyone who has lived, the everlasting blessedness of those in right relationship with God, and eternal separation for those who have rejected God’s forgiveness in His Son.
• The sacrament of marriage to be ordained by God as a holy union between one man and one woman as biologically defined at birth.
OUR MISSION

THE NICENE CREED
We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.
And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made; being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who, for us men and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and died and was buried; and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead; whose Kingdom shall have no end.
And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life; who proceeds from the Father; who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets. And we believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.
We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.
Amen
We believe in lifting up the broken, serving the weary, and giving hope to a diverse world – we do all of this through National Missionaries
