Teddington, United Kingdom Tearfund Full time

About Us

Tearfund is a Christ-centred INGO, founded over fifty years ago. We have a big vision: to see all people freed from poverty, living transformed lives and reaching their God-given potential.

Our income last year was over £85m making us one of the UK’s largest humanitarian and development INGOs.

Our Approach

We have a highly distinctive and strategic approach; we do everything with and through the church. It is the church that is local, relational and long-term – present before, during and after a crisis hits. It is the church that was called by God to build his Kingdom. So it is the church that can truly bring community transformation.

And in these volatile times, with shifting patterns in funding, and in the very challenging contexts in which we work, we see a moment of great opportunity for the church.

Our role is to help the church identify and realise this opportunity. We have set ourselves the goal of enabling 250,000 churches in the countries we operate to become the transformation centres for their communities that they are called to be. The Fundraising and Engagement team will make this possible by growing our global community of people who want to enter into a whole-life response to poverty with help from Tearfund.

Tearfund’s vision and ambitious strategy has seen us embark on a process of transformation, of focusing and simplifying our structures, operating model and messaging.

Role and Person Overview

We are seeking a creative and bold Christ-centred leader who can take this work forward, building on this season of change, to guide and inspire the 150-strong fundraising and engagement team. You will bring a deep knowledge and expertise in fundraising, marketing and communications allied to the spiritual maturity that ensures prayer and reliance on God are always at the heart of how we work. And you will have an empowering approach to leadership that will enable agility, creativity and impact in all we do.

If this vision inspires you, if this description of what we are seeking resonates, then please consider applying. We look forward to hearing from you and mutually discerning whether you are called to serve in this key leadership role.

For more details including how to apply please see the job pack. Closing date 16th April.
