Multi-disciplinary Working: Baobab aims to be a reflective, thinking organisation and we place a high value on shared thinking time, sharing responsibilities and working together with others. A key aspect of the role is communicating and working in a holistic way.
Please include details on relevant fundraising experience, including examples of successfully won bids; as well as relevant experience related to the context of our work.
