Partnership Engagement Manager – WasteAid

WasteAid - Our vision

Our vision is a world with equal access to waste services for all.

Helping communities and governments manage their waste properly is vital if we are to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Waste management has a powerful and positive impact on people’s well-being.

Our mission – fighting poverty, pollution and climate change

Around 1 in 3 people globally do not have decent waste management.  Pollution caused by waste harms people’s health and the environment and damages the local economy. In contrast, an affordable waste management system is relatively simple to implement, improving the environment, creating jobs and protecting public health – particularly for children.

Plastic pollution in the marine environment is of major global concern, and WasteAid is helping tackle this global problem. We work with upstream and coastal communities to set up small recycling centres and help keep plastic out of rivers and the oceans. We also share skills in managing organic waste, helping people make the most with their resources.

Open dumping and burning of waste releases climate change emissions, contribute to both short-term and long-term impacts. Black soot from burning and methane from open dumping are of special concern. We offer communities a safe and sustainable alternative to dangerous dumpsites and toxic air pollution.

Our values

Our founding principles come from our origins in the waste management industry, which itself grew out of the public health movement in the UK in the late Victorian era. 

We believe in equality of access to decent public health for all people and advocate the role of good waste management to achieve this.

We are inclusive and empowering of the communities in developing countries that we seek to serve and support.

We believe in the power of appropriate technology transfer, training and skills development to create livelihoods and reduce pollution.

We are collaborative and work in a collegiate spirit with all partners and funders.

Our priorities for 2020-2023

• Focus on developing sustainable livelihoods through community-level interventions and make further strides in working with policy makers at local and national level.
• Address all common waste streams.
• Build on projects in Africa and Asia but do not exclude opportunities to partner with organisations elsewhere.
• Empower communities to act themselves (through campaigns and waste management activities).

We will continue to campaign to encourage the donor community to increase spending on waste management from 0.3% to 3% of international aid.

We recognise that dynamic partnerships amplify our impact, so we will continue to:

• partner with established groups in lower- and middle-income countries to share skills and knowledge about local and low-cost sustainable waste management.
• support other international non-governmental organisations to build their capacity using evidence-based approaches to sustainable waste management.
• cooperate with individuals and businesses who want to help address the global waste crisis.

We will maintain a geographical and thematic focus:

Primary focus: We will continue to build on our two-year UK Aid grant-funded projects in West, East and Central sub-Saharan Africa, developing these partnerships as regional hubs of expertise / training centres and developing networks of practitioners. Pursue opportunities to develop additional grant-funded initiatives in these geographical regions.

Corporate partnerships and service delivery: We will work with others to deliver training and capacity building programmes in any community in a lower- or middle-income country that does not have an effective waste management service (where open dumping and burning are the norm).

Online resources: We will seek to inspire communities to act and to advocate for sustainable waste management in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals, through providing free and accessible online resources and engagement.

Person Specification

We are looking to recruit a dynamic, motivated and experienced professional to develop our income generation strategy across a variety of income streams (predominantly corporate partnerships and through trusts and foundations).  

To be successful you will have a proven experience in income generation with good influencing skills, the confidence to implement and develop fundraising strategies, be able to demonstrate excellent stewardship, have a successful track record of building successful relationships and having a collaborative nature.
