Location: London or Chard, Somerset -Hybrid

Tenure: 2 year Fixed-Term Contract

ActionAid UK is a member of the ActionAid Federation, an international charity that works with women and girls living in poverty. As part of the ActionAid Federation, we work with women and girls, our partners, and dedicated staff in 43 countries to end violence and fight poverty so that all women, everywhere, can create the future they want.

Are you a keen advocate of women and girls’ rights in emergencies? 

Are you passionate about driving change and transforming the way organisations engage with their supporters? 

Do you thrive in dynamic environments where innovation and strategy come together to create meaningful impact?

Then we'd love to hear from you!

The Purpose of this role will be to drive a complex change-initiative to evolve AAUK Child Sponsorship. Child Sponsorship (CS) has been a part of the ActionAid Federation and ActionAid UK since 1972, and traditionally the main source of individual giving income. CS is a fundraising product  that enables individuals to support children and their families through monthly donations that are used to directly support the communities where the sponsored child lives. However, over recent years, ActionAid UK’s vision, mission and strategy have changed dramatically, with our evolving commitments to anti-racist storytelling and decolonisation. These core principles are not reflected by design within the current Child Sponsorship product

Please Review our Feminist Principles & Behaviours

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading strategic change within the Child Sponsorship programme, ensuring we stay relevant, impactful, and engaging for supporters.
• Developing and implementing innovative processes that enhance how we connect with donors, integrating digital transformation and modern engagement strategies.
• Managing stakeholder relationships across ActionAid UK and the wider ActionAid Federation to ensure smooth transitions and alignment with organisational goals.
• Driving a culture of continuous improvement, identifying opportunities to refine, optimise, and evolve our approach.
• Overseeing change management strategies, ensuring that new processes are successfully adopted across teams and embedded into our work.

We’re looking for a strategic and dynamic change leader with a proven track record in managing complex transformation projects. The Change Manager is a critical role that will be accountable for the effective development, ongoing maintenance and delivery of change management and the Child Sponsorship Evolution project plan, including active collaboration with partners and experts from across the global ActionAid Federation. The role will contribute to shifting the current ActionAid funding model by championing the Federation’s transformative vision of being a rooted campaigning organisation, and its feminist, anti-racist, decolonial values.

You will have:

• Experience in change management, particularly in the charity sector, supporter engagement, or digital transformation.
• A collaborative approach, bringing teams together to deliver seamless and effective change initiatives.
• Strong stakeholder management skills, with the ability to engage, influence, and communicate effectively at all levels.
• An innovative mindset, continuously seeking ways to enhance processes and drive efficiencies.
• A passion for women’s rights, social justice, and the power of meaningful engagement in international development.
 

If you’re ready to lead change in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment, we want to hear from you. Apply today to join ActionAid UK as our Change Manager and help transform the way we engage with supporters to create a lasting impact for girls, women, and communities worldwide.
