The Vacancy

Islamic Relief Worldwide (IRW) is a faith-based humanitarian relief and development organisation working to save and transform the lives of some of the world’s most vulnerable people.  Established in 1984, with an active presence in over 45 countries, we strive to make the world a better and fairer place for those affected by poverty, conflict and natural disasters.

The role will sit within the Programme Funding and Partnership Department (PFPD) within the IPD.

Building upon our many programme partnerships with other faith-based and non-faith-based actors, this role will forge new partnerships that build on the inspiring work we have developed in the areas of livelihoods, peacebuilding, forced migration, protection and gender justice. Working with major institutional donors, the Faith Partnership Advisor will form part of a collaborative team and manage the bid process from inception to submission on new programme initiatives.

  • Expert knowledge of Microsoft Word and being versed with PowerPoint and Excel
  • Track record of working in a similar role with an International NGO essential
  • Proven ability to secure funding for Faith Partnerships
  • Must have substantial experience of having worked on successful bids/partnerships which have a faith dimension
  • Well versed and with proven capabilities of understanding the faith dimension of international development and humanitarian interventions.
  • Demonstrated experience of working on multiple bids with various institutional donors
