Development Manager

The Global Initiative is changing rapidly! We have worked for 17 years to secure support for our mission – to end violence against children through the universal prohibition and elimination of all corporal punishment, the most pervasive and accepted form of violence against children, and have shifted the debate about the need to tackle this abuse. 

Now our challenge is to meet the demand for our advice and expertise, such as our workshops and guidance publications for governments who have committed to reform laws to prohibit corporal punishment. We need a creative and dedicated Development Manager who can help us use this expertise to become a fully sustainable and influential organisation. You will be joining our small enthusiastic team in London to work with us for an initial contract of 12 months (with the potential for extension) to move our income generation in to a new phase.

This is an exciting opportunity for a creative individual who will work closely with our Director and Trustees to create an income generation and business development strategy, exploring the potential for new sources of income from trusts and foundations, individual and high value donors and partners who might contract with us.

Please send a cover letter with your CV, explaining why you are interested in the role, and how your experience meets the requirements of the person specification.
