About Global Witness
Our goal is a more sustainable, just and equal planet where humanity is propelled forward, away from the toxic practices of the past. This means fossil fuels staying in the ground, climate-critical forests standing tall and those on the frontline fighting the climate crisis, who defend our planet, are protected from persecution and attacks.
We want justice for those disproportionately affected by the climate crisis: people in the global south, indigenous communities and communities of colour, women and younger generations. And that the necessary energy transition is done equitably and with the interests of those groups in mind.
To do this we have to stand up to the corporate drivers of the climate crisis - the fossil fuel companies that continue to extract and burn when the science is telling us to stop, the global banks financing deforestation and the businesses that turn a blind eye, or worse are complicit in, attacks on defenders.
For us to succeed, we need to embody the principles we fight for. Global Witness strives for cohesion, solidarity, and inclusion as only together can we protect one another and the planet to build a better and more just future.
About the role
Leading a team of key investigators and working on shared goals with the Fossil Fuels Campaigning Lead, you will deliver impactful and credible investigations which help dismantle the power of the fossil fuel industry.
You will be responsible for building strategic, innovative and focused investigations, followed by strategic storytelling and collaborative advocacy to ensure they create the change we need at this critical time.
About you
You’ll bring your significant experience and expertise in all aspects of designing and overseeing successful investigations . You embrace collaboration, bringing compelling and authentic communication skills where you listen, engage and influence at all levels, with a broad range of individuals and organisations.
As an agile leader, you will drive and support an empowered and valued team accountable for the work they do.
Finally, you’ll have a strong affinity to Global Witness’ values. You’ll thrive in an environment where you frequently work with others to achieve our ambitions.
Working for us
Global Witness has a talented team of people worldwide with offices in London, Washington DC, and Brussels. We aim to be a diverse and inclusive place to work. We value new perspectives, original ideas, and different ways of working. We believe that diverse views and experiences improve the way we do our work.

The Boaz Trust is a Manchester-based charity that started 20 years ago as an outworking of the founder's Christian faith. Last year we provided trauma-informed and person-centred housing and support for more than 200 people facing homelessness after seeking safety in the UK through our floating support and 17 properties that we manage.
This new role is a key part of our strategy to increase our capacity to provide accommodation for more people in the Greater Manchester area working in partnership with GMCA and a range of local and national stakeholders. You will report directly to the CEO and Board and be part of the Senior Leadership Team building on our unique experience of providing both housing-focused and floating support for people who have recently been granted refugee status, as well as those who have been refused asylum and who are facing homelessness.
In the current climate, this work is needed more than ever. We are therefore looking for an experienced and dynamic leader to develop our accommodation services. The ideal candidate will have experience / knowledge of;
- procuring and managing accommodation services (including shared housing)
- social housing standards, regulations and other relevant housing legislation
- project, contract or budgetary management
- managing a team of staff and contractors
- building relationships with a wide range of stakeholders, to increase impact and sustainability.
We are looking for someone with ambition and drive to build on our experience and reputation as well as getting involved in the day-to-day delivery of housing management in a small team.
This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to use their experience to make a big difference to the lives of hundreds of people and to shape the future direction and strategy of the organisation.
The successful candidate will need to be supportive of the Christian ethos and values of the charity. However, diversity, equity and inclusion are also important to us at Boaz Trust so we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds.

Flexible/Hybrid/London
We are looking for talented people who want to make a difference, to join our team – is this you?
The role
We are looking for an experienced project and programme manager with a passion for public dialogue to support and deliver work on technology futures and public dialogue.
We believe that engineering plays a vital role in building a sustainable society and an inclusive economy. To help achieve this, conversations are needed between engineers and wider society. In this role you will support the delivery of a programme of public dialogue and listening activities on engineering and emerging technologies, which builds public voice into the work of the Royal Academy of Engineering. This will build on existing work to bring public dialogue into our thought leadership and support for innovation in critical areas such as AI and technologies for net zero. This role will play a leading role in establishing the important practice of bringing public listening into engineering programmes including policy and research programmes, innovation accelerators and international engagement at the Academy.
As a programme manager, you will manage a diverse and innovative programme of projects and events that support meaningful dialogue, deliberation and community engagement activities following the leadership of the Principal Consultant and Associate Director (Engineering Policy). The Futures and Dialogue Team works across the Academy, collaborating closely with Policy, Enterprise, Research Programmes, Communications and Events.
This is an exciting opportunity for you to contribute to shaping and developing the Academy’s public dialogue and futures activities and shaping engineering research and practice to be increasingly inclusive, diverse, and accessible.
Our location
Our light, spacious head office is based in a fantastic location in central London with views over St James’s Park and close to the West End. We operate hybrid, flexible working practices with a baseline for office-based working of a mandatory weekly team day plus further days each week as required for the role and the Academy.
Who are we?
Engineering matters. It shapes our everyday lives, from our ability to turn the lights on, have a hot shower and commute into work, to the mobile phones we rely on to keep connected. It also plays a vital role in addressing some of the biggest challenges facing society today, from climate change to global health pandemics and cyber threats.
The Royal Academy of Engineering is a charity that harnesses the power of engineering to build a sustainable society and an inclusive economy that works for everyone. In collaboration with our Fellows and partners, we’re growing talent and developing skills for the future, driving innovation, and building global partnerships, and influencing policy and engaging the public. Together we’re working to tackle the greatest challenges of our age.
With a diverse workforce and an inclusive and supportive culture, we look to attract candidates from wide and different backgrounds who have a passion for the role engineering plays in society. Our aim is to make the Academy the best place to work for the staff we have and those we seek to attract.
Why work for us?
We’re looking for people who are driven to make the world a better place. If you’re passionate about what you do and want to work collaboratively with talented colleagues to make change happen now and for future generations, we want you to get in touch.
This is the perfect time to join us. We have a dynamic, visionary CEO, a strong leadership team and an ambitious and exciting strategy. The value we bring as experts in our field and change agents is highly recognised and makes the Academy a motivating place to be. Our work today builds on a long, proud history with a focused and ambitious future which we’d love you to be part of.
For more information and to apply online, please visit our careers portal.
Closing date: 8 December 2024.
Interview date: w/c 16 December 2024.
The Academy is committed to making reasonable adjustments to remove barriers that hinder applicants from applying or staff from working effectively and comfortably.
