Against Malaria Foundation (AMF)
Junior Operations Manager
Full time
Job Description
AMF profile
Against Malaria Foundation (AMF) was founded in 2004 and is a charity that fights malaria in a highly effective, accountable and transparent way.
We do this by purchasing and distributing multiple millions of long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) at a time in nationwide universal coverage campaigns. This is the most cost-effective way of preventing malaria. AMF receives donations from the public and in the last financial year received US$147 million and, in our history, now over US$780 million. AMF is particularly data-focused and monitors and reports on net use and drives and supports innovation to improve the effectiveness of malaria programmes.
AMF is the world’s third largest funder of nets.
AMF has been rated a top charity for all of the last 16 years by independent charity evaluators GiveWell, Giving What We Can and The Life You Can Save who focus on impact and cost-effectiveness.
We are a team of 15 highly motivated individuals with different skills and experience. Each person has an important role to play. All team members work remotely with constant communication between them. While the team is small, the impact is big - our net distributions protect millions of people. Our largest programme is in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where we are funding 52 million nets to protect 94 million people for distribution during 2025 to 2027. We have ongoing multi-million net programmes in other countries including Chad, Guinea, Nigeria, South Sudan, Togo, Uganda and Zambia.
Role Description
Our activities and commitments are steadily increasing, with 2026 a particularly busy year with over 60 million nets planned for distribution to protect more than 110 million people, and the next few years will be similarly busy. In light of this, AMF is recruiting a Junior Operations Manager to join the operations team and to play an important role in ensuring the success of the net distributions. We are looking for someone with strong quantitative and analytical skills who enjoys working with data. The ideal candidate will be a fast learner with scientific or numbers-oriented mindset, comfortable performing quick, high-quality analyses and communicating findings clearly.
The role will include involvement in all stages of a distribution campaign (pre-agreement, net procurement, post-agreement, during distribution, and post distribution) with a focus on two areas:
- Data analysis - reviewing and analysing distribution, monitoring and malaria data to support decisionmaking
- Operational work to support programmes, in particular across independent monitoring, net accounting and keeping internal systems up to date
Further information
Across the life of each distribution, AMF collects large amounts of data: household registration and distribution data, net transportation information, data from independent monitoring partners both during distributions and after distributions through post-distribution monitoring surveys conducted at 0, 9, 18, and 27 months. We also receive and analyse external data including population estimates and malaria burden data. These data are central to how AMF operates - it informs operational decisions, ensures we can track every net accountably from manufacturing site to household, and it also enables us to report to donors with confidence on where their nets went.

Independent monitoring
Tendering and contracting
- Sending documentation to bidding partners and receiving proposals
- Supporting budget comparisons and proposal review
- Drafting agreement documents and processing payments

- Analysing project spend against budget, proposing closeout payments and processing them
Net accounting

- Keeping AMF's internal systems up to date
- Inputting and processing payments
- Ensuring distribution and project dates are up to date
- Updating the latest status for the nets for each distribution (in production, en-route to country, etc.)
There will be other significant work related to AMF Group Operations, dependent on the candidate’s skill set, such as assisting with documentation for tax deductibility, new AMF entities, and updating our website with blogposts.
Characteristics of the successful candidate
We are looking for someone who has strong intellectual and analytical skills, is a fast learner and who relishes the opportunity to develop their abilities.

This post offers an exceptional opportunity to be part of an innovative and rapidly developing programme that blends real world service change with high quality research. Working across the South London and Maudsley (SLaM) boroughs — Lambeth, Lewisham, Southwark and Croydon — you will document, analyse and demonstrate the impact of new youth friendly primary care approaches as they are designed, implemented and adapted.

You will use both qualitative and quantitative methods, support digital innovation with KCL, and help ensure that young people’s experiences, outcomes and priorities shape service development.
Your work will inform commissioners, clinicians and system partners working to reduce health inequalities and strengthen support for adolescents across South London and beyond.

We are seeking a full-time Training and Development Associate to develop, pilot and deliver a range of training programmes in 2026. These programmes will be developed from the findings of two key research reports from 2025. Our flagship Shattered Britain report outlined the seven segments of Britain today, while our Progressive Activists report delved deeply into this segment’s views and beliefs. The training programmes aim to:
-
Equip Progressive Activists with the tools and strategies to build broad coalitions and campaign effectively informed by deep knowledge of public opinion.
-
Help leaders and boards manage progressive, values-driven workforces, ensuring alignment between organisational mission and staff culture while maintaining effectiveness.
-
Help managers understand the diversity of public opinion on a range of issues, as well as wider trends and drivers of public opinion, and learn how to use the seven segments to understand and reach new audience
The Training and Development Associate role involves the following indicative duties:
-
With the Deputy Director (Strategy and Development), launch More in Common UK’s training arm, ensure all training programmes are high-quality, impactful and - in the long-run - commercially self-sustaining.
-
Develop More in Common UK’s training programmes, creating a suite of training materials with advice and support from external partners and contractors where necessary.
-
Deliver directly, and support others to deliver, at least 20 in-house training programmes and 6 ‘open-access’ training programmes in 12 months.
-
Train over 700 individuals in 12 months, with more than 90% rating the training highly effective.
-
Design and implement a robust approach to monitoring and evaluation for our training programmes.
-
Ensure all training programmes are underpinned by robust, up-to-date research from More in Common’s work.
-
Contribute to More in Common’s wider thought-leadership and political engagement.
-
Ensure that More in Common’s UK outputs are of the highest quality and genuinely lead to impact in line with our mission.
-
Lead the marketing and outreach to external partners and organisations to secure new business and customers for the training programmes.
-
Work with colleagues to build opportunities for training into larger research projects with external partners.

-
Represent More in Common's work and values to a wide variety of external organisations, acting as a public face for people to learn about our research.
-
Any other tasks as reasonably required from time to time.
The Training and Development Associate will work closely with the UK Team across our core areas of research, communications, partnership, and client work. More in Common UK is a small team with a start-up culture where everyone is expected to execute a range of responsibilities, though the Training and Development Associate will focus on launching and making a success of More in Common’s new training arm.
We have initial funding to appoint a Training and Development Associate on a fixed-term (12-month) contract. However, subject to the success of the training programmes, their potential commercial viability and/or further funding, our hope would be to extend or make permanent the role.
QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE
-
Considerable experience in delivering high-quality training programmes.
-
Experience in designing or updating training materials, particularly drawing on robust research.
-
Experience designing monitoring, evaluation and learning frameworks for training.
-
Strong public speaking and facilitation skills
-
Some experience with and understanding of quantitative and quantitative research methods.
-
Experience producing written content that is engaged with wider political or social debates, and grounded in robust research.
-
A deep understanding of UK politics and the role research and communications play in shaping public policy outcomes.
-
An ability to manage projects from start to finish, handling both budget and time management, and dealing with large and complex clients.
-
An entrepreneurial mindset and a track record of spotting opportunities to secure new work.
-
The ability to manage tasks and projects independently and in a team - from inception through to delivery and evaluation
-
A hunger for disseminating More in Common’s research to new audiences.
The above is an indicative guide to what we’re looking for, but you do not need to meet every bullet point listed. We are open to a diverse range of experiences, backgrounds and skillsets.
