You’ll probably have experience of:

• Charity finance.

• Budgeting and forecasting.
• Audit preparation.
• Financial controls.
• Cloud accounting systems (Xero experience is highly desirable).
• Leading change and improving systems.

WELCOME TO GFA WORLD

Since 1979, we have been committed to serving the “least of these” in Asia and Africa, primarily in places where no one has ever heard the name of Jesus, so that those still waiting can experience the love of God for the first time. Today, nearly 3 billion people have little to no opportunity to ever hear the name of Jesus. Every single day, an estimated 70,000 people die without ever hearing His name.

We are partnered with National Missionaries serving as the hands and feet of Christ in Asia and Africa, children in poverty and suffering, and community development initiatives helping families in need of care or during disasters.

As a Christian missions order we are a small organisation, but we are deeply committed to doing our work with excellence, faithfulness, and care in everything we do. We function as a community, and by joining GFA World you’ll be joining a family that does life together—journeying toward Jesus, living for eternity, and making a difference for some of the poorest and most afflicted people on earth in Christ’s name.

Our Mission

We exist to ensure no one dies without knowing the love of Christ and give people the chance to experience a transformed life in Christ by partnering with National Missionaries to bring the love of Jesus to communities still waiting to hear His name.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

GFA World's mission is to help people know Jesus and experience His love in places where there is little or no Christian presence. Every donation, prayer, event, communication, and ministry activity relies on strong systems and faithful stewardship behind the scenes. 

This role helps ensure that GFA World remains financially sound, legally compliant, operationally effective, and a healthy place for staff to serve. You will help steward the resources entrusted to us by our partners, support the staff who carry out the ministry, and maintain the systems that allow our work to grow sustainably.

As a small and highly collaborative team, we do not have separate departments for finance, human resources, compliance, facilities, health and safety, or operations. Instead, we rely on people who are willing to take ownership, learn new things, solve problems, and help strengthen the organisation wherever needed.

This role is ideal for someone who enjoys creating and improving systems, spotting gaps, and ensuring that important things do not fall through the cracks.

OCCUPATIONAL REQUIREMENT

As a result of our Christian ethos, this post is covered by an Occupational Requirement under Part 1 of Schedule 9 to the Equality Act 2010. The successful applicant will be expected to:

• Be a practising Christian and active member of a local church.
• Subscribe to GFA World’s Statement of Faith and the Nicene Creed.

GFA WORLD’S STATEMENT OF FAITH

We Believe:

•    That the Bible is the inspired and infallible Word of God, given to us by the Church – “the pillar and ground of the truth” (1 Timothy 3:15).
•    The Nicene Creed to be the official Creed of the Holy Church.
•    In one God, Creator of all things, eternally existing in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that these three are co-eternal and of equal dignity and power.
•    In the deity of Jesus Christ; His miraculous conception by the Holy Spirit; His virgin birth; His sinless life; His death on a cross; His bodily resurrection; His ascension to the right hand of the Father; and His personal, imminent return.
•    That man was created by and for God; that by man’s disobeying God, every person incurred spiritual death, which meant they were no longer in communion with God, and physical death was the consequence; and that all people are given the option of being redeemed and restored to God.
•    The Lord Jesus Christ died for our sins and that all who believe in Him are declared righteous because of His victory over death and are, therefore, in right relationship with God.
•    Salvation means far more than being “saved from sin; we are saved for sonship, to be divinely adopted sons and daughters of God. Forgiveness is the precondition for God’s greater gift, the gift that will last beyond our death: the gift of divine life” (1 Corinthians 15:3-7).
•    Believers in Christ are destined to share in the life of the Holy Trinity. Sharing in the life of God, as God has shared in our humanity (1 Peter 1:4).
•    In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit indwelling all believers and thus enabling and empowering the life and ministry of the believer.
•    In the bodily resurrection of everyone who has lived, the everlasting blessedness of those in right relationship with God, and eternal separation for those who have rejected God’s forgiveness in His Son.
•    The sacrament of marriage to be ordained by God as a holy union between one man and one woman as biologically defined at birth.

THE NICENE CREED

We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.

And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made; being of one substance with the Father, by whom all things were made. Who, for us men and for our salvation, came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the Virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate. He suffered and died and was buried; and the third day He rose again, according to the Scriptures, and ascended into heaven, and sits at the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead; whose Kingdom shall have no end.

And we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord and Giver of Life; who proceeds from the Father; who with the Father and the Son together is worshiped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets. And we believe in one, holy, catholic and apostolic church.

We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come.

About you

You will have:

- Confidence and ability to approach and build trusting relationships with a diverse range of organisations and individuals including unrepresented or seldom-heard groups
- Skills and ability to coordinate and facilitate groups and workshops
- Understanding of equity, diversity and health.
- Have an understanding of dementia or be keen to develop knowledge of its impact on people diagnosed and those who care for them.
- Take a proactive approach and be motivated to achieve positive, meaningful outcomes.

Key Responsibilities:

- Actively engage with communities, facilitating and attending community events, local forums and networking opportunities to raise awareness of dementia services.
- Build and maintain relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, from senior healthcare professionals (delivering presentations and briefings) to community leaders, charities and grassroots organisations.
- Deliver community-specific workshops and awareness sessions, working collaboratively with both internal colleagues and external partners.
- Develop strong links with organisations delivering similar or complementary services, helping to create a robust and collaborative local network.
- Influence and motivate individuals and organisations to take action, often encouraging people to work beyond their usual roles to create meaningful, long-term change.
- Gathering knowledge from communities—understanding what works, what doesn’t, and why—and using this learning to continuously improve engagement and reduce health inequalities, including those affecting smaller or less visible groups.
- Support and enable community members and volunteers who wish to run groups, events or activities, working alongside and empowering them to take action.
- Work flexibly, including some evening and weekend work, to meet community needs and attend events.

Interviews for this role have been provisionally scheduled to take place via Teams on w/c  27th July

About Alzheimer's Society

Dementia is the UK's biggest killer. One in three people born in the UK today will develop dementia in their lifetime.

At Alzheimer's Society, we're the UK's leading dementia charity and the only one to tackle all aspects of dementia by giving help and hope to people living with dementia today and in the future. We give vital support to people facing the most frightening times of their lives, while also funding groundbreaking research and campaigning to make dementia the priority it should be.

Together with our supporters, we're working towards a world where dementia no longer devastates lives.

Our values make sure that our focus is clear for the challenges and opportunities ahead and remind us of what we all stand for.

Our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging

We need to ensure the voices around our table better reflect and understand the communities we exist to serve. We strongly encourage individuals to apply who have a disability, impairment or health condition or individuals who identify as Black, Asian or from another minority ethnic background, as these groups are currently under-represented at Alzheimer's Society.  

We want everyone we work with, as a colleague, volunteer, supporter, or someone we support, to feel included and that they belong at Alzheimer's Society. 

Our Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Strategy here along with our internal employee forum and Employee Lived Experience network groups help us promote inclusion and belonging, becoming an engaged and inclusive organisation for all our people.

HR Lead

Are you driven by the belief that every woman deserves the chance to shape her future, no matter her past?

We are an award‑winning national charity, the UK’s only employment charity dedicated solely to supporting women with convictions.

Driven by our vision of a society where no woman is held back by her past, we work to ensure every woman has the support, encouragement and opportunities she needs to reset her life and thrive.

We challenge misconceptions about women with convictions and raise awareness of the issues that often sit behind women’s offending. At the heart of our work is a simple belief: a conviction should never define a woman’s future.

You’ll be joining a supportive, values‑driven team who care deeply about the women we work with. Alongside a competitive salary, we offer flexible working, a generous holiday allowance, wellbeing days and time off for your birthday.

Flexibility

Our London-based staff operate on a hybrid model, working from our office at London South Bank University (one minute from Elephant and Castle tube station) on Mondays and Tuesdays, with the remainder of the week worked from home. Full-time staff are expected to attend the office on both days, while part-time staff are required to attend on one of these days only. We also have staff based outside London who work fully remotely.

The HR Lead role is a two-day-per-week position. We would like the postholder to work from the London office on either Monday or Tuesday (or both days if preferred), with flexibility over when the remaining hours are worked, provided there is a consistent working pattern each week.
