As Nepal’s longest serving international NGO they continue to have ambitious plans. It is an exciting time to join INF as they enter a bold new strategic phase for 2026 to 2031.

The most disadvantaged communities in Nepal face a lack of access to healthcare, often walking for days to their nearest health post, or being unable to afford even basic treatment.

Kopila, who was diagnosed with leprosy several years ago, is a patient at INF’s Green Pastures Hospital in Pokhara, Nepal.

“Whenever I have to come back to Green Pastures I am grateful that all of the treatment is free, and I am happy because everybody there cares for me and loves me.”

We are looking for a Trusts Officer to join their small, passionate team. This is a fantastic opportunity to ensure INF UK’s key supporters feel valued and connected with the charity. In partnership with Nepali organisations you will support marginalised people to overcome the barriers they face due to issues such as disability, poverty, gender or caste.

As a faith-based Christian charity, it is a genuine occupational requirement for applicants to have a personal commitment to the Christian faith. See the recruitment pack for more details.

Why INF?

INF UK has a small, supportive, connected team where ideas are welcomed and suggestions are encouraged. It is a real privilege to work with INF’s partners in Nepal, and a fantastic opportunity to learn about various projects and their delivery.

There is a genuine culture of learning and a real opportunity for development, especially at a unique phase of the charity’s long history as they work towards a new strategy.

INF places an emphasis on professional development and training to enable you to fulfil your role. They support employees in their desire to further their qualifications and careers, including offering opportunities to undertake training courses and attend conferences or events.
