We are looking for a self-motivated individual with exceptional communication skills and an enthusiasm for our work in serving poor and marginalised communities in Southern India. This is an exciting role in a growing charity with the opportunity to visit India.

Friends of Vellore UK (FOV) is the UK-based charity which supports Christian Medical College (CMC), Vellore in India. CMC is considered one of India’s finest medical college hospitals and attracts patients from all over the country as well as neighbouring nations. Whilst many patients are able to afford their treatment, a significant proportion do not have the means to pay for healthcare and may not even seek treatment. FOV wants to ensure that everyone can receive appropriate medical treatment regardless of their ability to pay.

In addition, FOV supports several community and rural projects in and around Vellore which are affiliated with the hospital, and in which there are many poor and disadvantaged communities. One such community is that which is based in the Jawadhi Hills. The Jawadhi Hills community has a high maternal and infant mortality, way above the average for Tamil Nadu. One reason for this is the lack of availability of 24-hour care. CMC with FOV’s help is seeking to establish this facility. FOV UK has undertaken to raise funds for a labour room, a small nursery and a ward for antenatal and postnatal patients.

The facility that FOV has undertaken to provide will cost approximately £50,000. We are seeking a fundraiser to achieve this goal in a year in addition to their salary and overheads. The post holder will be expected to visit the Jawadhi Hills in South India, if travel restrictions allow. If this post is successful, the intention is to extend the post for 5 years, as there are many needy projects that require funding in and around CMC Vellore.

You will have experience in fundraising and social media and the ability to speak in public. You will have excellent written and verbal communication skills and an ability to work well with people, including church groups. If you feel this position fits your skills, values and experience, and the role excites you, then we would love to hear from you.

Please download the job description for further information.

The face of power has changed. Until recently, people treated unfairly could often point to a person responsible: that policeman stopped me for no reason, that corporate boss cut my pay, that bureaucrat denied my mother a visa. 

Injustice remains, but today it often hides behind a technical veneer.  Decisions that affect the lives of thousands are made, or heavily influenced, by computer systems the public was never asked about and they don’t yet see. From insurers to police to Amazon and Facebook, power is exercised through algorithmic systems used to grade us and sort us. 

That’s where we come in. Foxglove is a non-profit that exists to make tech fair for us all.In our first two years we forced disclosure of secret contracts between tech giants and the NHS, stopped a racist Home Office visa streaming algorithm, helped make grading fair for all A level students in the UK, forced the government to extend the GP data grab deadline and helped over 360 Facebook workers speak out against their harmful workplace conditions. We’re just getting started. We hope you want to join us. 

Foxglove is a young organisation and we are looking for someone to help manage our finances and grow our supporter base. We are funded by donations from members of the public as well as trusts and foundations. We hope our Fundraising and Finance Coordinator will introduce Foxglove to new audiences, work closely with existing supporters and support grant fundraising. The post holder will be excellent at spotting new opportunities, will have exceptional administration skills and be an effective communicator.

About us 

Foxglove is a small, growing team of lawyers, activists and communications specialists. We investigate, litigate, and advocate for justice in technology. We’re working across Europe, helping some of tech’s most vulnerable workers organise for better conditions. And we’re standing up to the tech giants who exploit our attention for profit.

 About you 

You are highly organised, an effective communicator and experienced in supporter engagement and non-profit fundraising. You are a self-starter with the initiative to set your own tasks and find opportunities, but also have team-spiritedness to contribute to a shared goal and celebrate others’ work.

You value a workplace that is fun and irreverent, and you know social change is a marathon, not a sprint. We think it takes collective effort to build something that lasts, not a hero or a martyr. If this role and the Foxglove mission excites you, we would love to hear from you. We are actively working to improve our diversity – because an effective and creative team is made of people from different walks of life.

The role 

This is an essential position in the organisation. The role will be 50% administrative and 50% supporter and funder engagement. Key responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

• Provide the highest level of supporter communications, ensuring efficient and comprehensive responses to incoming enquiries. 
• Manage and keep our contact management system up to date.

Fundraising support. 

• Oversee the efficient recording and reconciliation of all fundraising income. 
• Process supporter donations. 
• Research new income sources for Foxglove and support funding applications.

• Experience using contact management databases and accounting software 
• Excellent time-management skills, including the ability to be flexible, respond quickly to changing demands, effectively prioritise and meet deadlines
• Willingness to muck in and support other members of a small team as required
• Right to work in the UK

Desirable. 

• Passion for tech-justice issues

Length and salary
