We work with organisations across the UK to transform the response to domestic abuse.
As part of the Drive Partnership – Respect, SafeLives and Social Finance – we challenge perpetrators of domestic abuse to change, asking ‘why doesn’t he stop?’ rather than ‘why doesn’t she leave? Together we can end domestic abuse. Forever. For everyone.
The Drive Partnership works with high-harm, high-risk and serial perpetrators of domestic abuse in 10 PCC areas and 21 Local Authorities across England and Wales to prevent their abusive behaviour and protect adult and child victims. And it works. A 3-year study by the University of Bristol shows that the Drive intervention reduces abuse. At the same time as delivering the Drive intervention in specific sites, we are working across the domestic abuse specialist sector, public sector partners and beyond to develop sustainable, national systems change that responds effectively to all perpetrators of domestic abuse.

This is an opportunity to join a growing team at the Global Distributors Collective (GDC). The GDC started in October 2018 and, since then, we have gone from strength to strength supporting our members – last mile distribution organisations – to sell life-changing products to low-income, remote or otherwise marginalised people across the world. Our ambition is to make last mile distribution the first priority.
Engaging with our members and partners sits at the core of everything we do; from delivering our innovation workstream and providing technical assistance directly to our members, to hosting learning and collaboration events and gathering/disseminating research and insights. In this role you will work closely with the Head of the GDC, GDC Project Manager and particularly the Communications and Impact Manager to help shape and deliver an ambitious agenda of communications activities, to support last mile distribution companies to save time, money and increase their impact at the last mile. You will also coordinate our member engagement work, providing you with an opportunity to liaise directly with, and learn about, socially-driven companies operating all across the world.

You will be familiar with working in a customer- or client-facing role; experience working or volunteering within a membership organisation would be an asset.
You are comfortable to work remotely and undertake tasks independently, often delivering work to time-pressured deadlines; while also being a keen team player and ready to chip in when necessary. While you may not have prior experience of working in the international development sector, you’ll have an interest in development issues and finding ways to improve the lives of marginalised people.
As our small international team works predominantly in English, it’s important that you are a fluent English speaker. Many of our members speak French as a first language, so French language skills would also be an asset!
Why join us?
The opportunity to work for an organisation that is making a positive difference to the lives of people worldwide, a friendly and supportive culture, working with values driven and highly engaged colleagues, work life balance and flexible working – these are just some of the reasons we think Practical Action is a great place to work.

- 26 days holiday rising with continuous service, in addition to public holidays.
- Pension scheme - employer contributes 10.5% of salary and the employee contributes 5%.

- Bike to Work scheme.
- Global Employee Assistance Programme
- Remote working / home working is possible with this role.
