Job Description

BACKGROUND
Over the past 90 years, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) has developed unparalleled expertise in responding to emergencies and helping uprooted communities to rebuild. Founded in 1933 at the request of Albert Einstein, the IRC offers lifesaving care and life-changing assistance to refugees forced to flee from war or disaster. The IRC is on the ground in more than 40 countries, providing emergency relief, relocating refugees and rebuilding lives in the wake of disaster.

The IRC is committed to a culture of bold leadership, innovation in all aspects of our work, creative partnerships and, most crucially, accountability to those we serve. The IRC is a tireless advocate for the most vulnerable.

IRC UK
IRC UK is part of the IRC global network, which has its global headquarters in New York. Our team in the UK works to raise profile, deliver policy and practice change, and increase funding to help restore health, safety, education, economic wellbeing and power to people devastated by conflict and disaster. Since 2021, IRC UK has also provided integration services directly to refugees in England, a programme that is rapidly growing.

In Europe, the IRC also has offices in Berlin, Bonn, Brussels, Geneva and Stockholm.

The Purpose of the Role

As the IRC continues to expand its global scope, influence, and programming at a time where crises are becoming more protracted, the need for flexible funding from private donors and philanthropists is greater than ever.

This role will serve as a lead fundraising campaign primarily for our Movement Against Malnutrition campaign and our Biz Case campaign. The position reports to the Vice President, Philanthropy with management in partnership with the Executive Director, Movement Against Malnutrition. The position works collaboratively with and is accountable to all high-value teams (including Global Corporate Partnerships, Global Foundations and Trusts, and GPPS) in support of our campaign goals.
