A unique, remote, part-time opportunity for a mission-driven, freelance EA to support the founders of a fast-growing humanitarian NGO.
About Children Not Numbers
The escalating crisis in Gaza has left thousands of children in urgent need of medical care, trauma support, and long-term assistance. Children Not Numbers is a grassroots medico-legal NGO committed to the health, safety, education, and wellbeing of Gaza’s children.
Children Not Numbers was established in February 2024 by Sarah Ben Tarifite and Somaya Ouazzani, founders and co-directors, who were driven by the urgent need to support Palestinian children caught up amid an unprecedented conflict. In just over 12 months, the organisation has grown rapidly into a global network of over 115 staff and volunteers, most of whom are volunteer paediatric medics representing more than 30 subspecialties.
Their work includes:
-
Emergency medical aid for sick and injured children in Gaza, delivered through collaboration between local staff and an international network of volunteer medics
-
Short-term medical evacuation for urgent and complex cases – more than 230 children have been safely evacuated to date
-
Rehabilitation and trauma support for children with life-changing injuries and extreme psychological trauma
-
Maternal Support Programme – over 500 women supported across 1,100+ appointments
-
Education and Empowerment Programme, currently supporting 300 children in Gaza with academic and psychological care
-
International advocacy, including engagement with the UN, European Commission, UK government and other international bodies
About the role
We are seeking a freelance Executive Assistant to work across both Sarah and Somaya, playing a vital role in helping the co-directors manage their time, priorities, and communications, while also providing organisational support across a fast-paced, high-growth NGO.
As an independent contractor, you will be a dynamic self-starter with excellent judgment, able to manage competing priorities at pace, stay organised across multiple workstreams, and adapt calmly to shifting demands and urgent tasks. While the co-directors will provide direction on key priorities, you’ll be expected to take ownership of your workflow and delivery—bringing strong judgment, initiative, and attention to detail to everything you do. You’ll need to move confidently across multiple workstreams, adapt quickly to change, and use sound judgment to know when to push forward independently and when to check in. Excellent written and verbal communication skills are essential, as is the ability to stay organised and methodical while responding flexibly to evolving demands.
Key deliverables include:
-
Deliver high-quality support for day-to-day workflows, ensuring smooth coordination across multiple priorities
-
Independently manage scheduling and calendar planning for the co-directors, ensuring timely updates and changes
-
Coordinate meetings, including preparing agendas, compiling pre-meeting research or briefing notes, producing meeting minutes, and tracking follow-up actions
-
Triage and prioritise inbound communications, including screening calls and emails for appropriate action
-
Draft, edit, and refine written materials such as correspondence, reports, internal communications, and presentations
-
Process and track expense claims in line with agreed systems and timelines
-
Liaise with internal stakeholders and external partners to support collaboration and timely delivery of programme-related activities
-
Provide logistical support for events including team retreats, donor gatherings, and community engagement initiatives, working closely with relevant teams
-
Deliver administrative support across a range of organisational functions, as agreed
Contractor Requirements
To be considered for this role, it is essential that you have:
-
2+ years recent experience as an Executive Assistant to Director-level or above, ideally in a small or fast-paced organisation.
-
Right to work in the UK - this is a remote, UK-based role. We are not able to offer visa sponsorship or consider overseas applications
Desirable:
-
Experience of working in a charity or not-for-profit, either as an EA or in another role, is highly desirable
-
Project coordination and event planning experience
Please note:
- Only candidates who meet the two essential criteria above will be contacted. Applications from those with recent experience as an Executive Assistant plus employment experience within the not-for-profit sector will be prioritised.
-
This contract is outside IR35 regulations, meaning the contractor is responsible for managing their own tax, National Insurance contributions, and compliance with relevant tax laws.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis so please apply ASAP.
Children Not Numbers are partnering with Laura Macnamara at QuarterFive for this role.
Application is by CV only. Please do not send a cover letter.

WHO WE ARE
Animal Equality is an international animal protection organisation working with society, governments and companies to end cruelty to farmed animals. Animal Equality has offices in the United Kingdom, United States, Germany, Italy, Spain, Mexico, Brazil and India.
Animal Equality releases investigative materials captured from inside factory farms and slaughterhouses, exposing the conditions that farmed animals face around the world. We publish our findings on television, in newspapers and online. We routinely secure mainstream media coverage, including on the BBC, ITV, Sky news, The Times, the Guardian, New York Times and many more.
Animal Equality also advocates for political change. Our current campaigns include a UK ban on foie gras imports, increased enforcement of existing animal protection laws, legal protections for farmed fish, and Government subsidies for transitioning towards a plant-based food system.
We focus on farmed animals because of the scale and severity of the issue. More than a billion animals are confined and killed for human consumption every year in the UK. Farmed animals also often suffer in some of the worst ways: pigs typically endure painful mutilations, many chickens die of heart attacks, fish are confined in underwater cages, and some farmed animals are victims of deliberate abuse and neglect. But the problem is solvable! By utilising effective campaigning strategies, Animal Equality is having an impact for animals around the world and building a future where all animals are respected and protected, and are no longer exploited for human consumption.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Remote working, in the UK (with travel to London once a month).
The Philanthropy Specialist plays a major role in meeting the organisation’s ambitious fundraising goals. Responsible for major giving and grants portfolios, the Philanthropy Specialist identifies, cultivates, solicits and stewards financial support from generous individuals and granting bodies.
With a proven track record the successful candidate will network with key stakeholders, present compelling communications and generate significant funds. In turn, these funds will enable Animal Equality to achieve its ambitious financial targets and carry out its crucial campaigns to meaningfully transform and save the lives of farmed animals.
BENEFITS
- Holiday entitlement equal to 33 days per year (including standard public holidays).
- Personalised Employee Assistance Program (EAP): an Animal Equality-funded benefit that offers employees confidential counselling and advice on a wide range of work and personal issues. The program offers several services, such as a 24/7 confidential helpline and expert Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.
- Flexible hours, with the option to start between 8am-10am and finish between 4pm-6pm.
- Able Futures Support: The service is a nine month, practical and confidential support service for employees whose circumstances or mental health may impact their wellbeing or work. Employees can work with a mental health professional to deepen their understanding of how their mental health may impact them and will build coping skills and resilience to thrive at work.
- Yearly stipend to access learning and development resources, to help employees further grow their personal and professional skills.
- A free vegan lunch every month at the Animal Equality monthly meetups.
HOW TO APPLY

Respect is the UK charity stopping perpetrators of domestic abuse. We want a world where everyone is free from domestic abuse. Where it is never ok to control, harm or cause fear. Where those who perpetrate domestic abuse are stopped, held to account and given the chance to change. We will not stop, until domestic abuse stops. Founded in 2000 by Jo Todd CBE, who is still at the helm, Respect was established to focus on perpetrators of domestic abuse, and this, including our vital work with young people who cause harm, remains our key priority. Alongside this work, we deliver expert support to male victims of domestic abuse. Everything we do is shaped and driven by our values: we are pioneering, collaborative, accountable, and respectful.
This role is based within the Drive Partnership and be part of the pilot for the roll out of the positive requirement element of the DAPO’s.
We would particularly welcome applications from individuals from a wide range of backgrounds and across all protected characteristics1, particularly from people from the following under-represented groups:
-
Black and minoritised people
-
Disabled people
We always welcome and support applications from those who have personal experience of domestic abuse.
About The Drive Partnership
The Drive Partnership, formed by Respect, SafeLives and Social Finance, is working to transform the national response to perpetrators of domestic abuse. We work to end domestic abuse and protect victims by disrupting, challenging, and changing the behaviour of those who are causing harm. Together we have developed the Drive Project to address a gap in work with high-harm, high-risk perpetrators of domestic abuse. We also work to advocate for systems and policy change- to develop sustainable, national systems that respond more effectively to all perpetrators of domestic abuse.
The Drive Partnership vision
Our vision is that by 2026 there will be a consistent approach which sees agencies in all PCC and local authority areas across England and Wales – backed by national leaders – working together to disrupt abuse and change behaviour to increase safety for victim survivors, including children and families.
Our Focus
Respect was founded to focus on perpetrators of domestic abuse and this, including our vital work with young people who cause harm, is our key priority. Our work with male victims is an important, distinct, project.
Our Vision
We want a world where everyone is free from domestic abuse. Where it is never ok to control, harm or cause fear. Where those who perpetrate domestic abuse are stopped, held to account and given the chance to change.
Our Mission
We work with our members, partners and allies to stop the harms done by those who perpetrate domestic abuse. With innovative practice, robust research and quality data, we build evidence of what works, promote safe, effective practice and drive high standards. We use our voice, in collaboration with others, to call for a response to domestic abuse that matches the scale of the problem. We will not stop, until domestic abuse stops.
Our Values
-
Pioneering: We explore innovative ideas and develop new approaches with curiosity and rigour
-
Collaborative: We work in partnership with our members, partners and allies to bring about individual, societal and systems change
-

-
Respectful: We live up to our name. We are committed to equity, diversity and inclusion in all that we do. We are honest, compassionate and boldly challenge injustice
Our way of working
Partnership is fundamental to our way of working. We are second-tier organisation focusing on the continuous improvement of service models, sharing best practice and supporting specialist service providers to deliver.
We have three core strands of work:
The Drive Project is our flagship intervention working with high-harm, high-risk and serial perpetrators of domestic abuse to prevent their abusive behaviour and protect victims. The Drive Project challenges perpetrators to change and works with partner agencies – like the police and social services – to disrupt abuse. It is currently being delivered in 9 police force areas.
Restart is an innovative pilot project providing earlier intervention for families experiencing domestic abuse. It brings together domestic abuse services, children’s social care and housing teams to identify and respond to patterns of domestic abuse at an earlier stage. Restart is currently being delivered in five London Boroughs.
The Drive National Systems Change programme works across the domestic abuse specialist sector, public sector partners and beyond to develop sustainable, national systems that respond to all perpetrators of domestic abuse. We identify systemic gaps and build solutions that keep survivors safer by addressing those causing harm.
Background for the role
In April 2021 the Domestic Abuse Act received Royal Assent. The Act introduces a new civil Domestic Abuse Protection Notice (DAPN) to provide immediate protection following a domestic abuse incident, and a new civil Domestic Abuse Protection Order (DAPO) to provide flexible, longer-term protection for victims. DAPOs can impose both prohibitions and positive requirements on perpetrators. Positive requirements can be in the form of interventions aimed at reducing and managing risk, meeting the needs of an individual (for the factors that are not the causation of abuse but impact on risk e.g. mental ill health, substance misuse) and behaviour change interventions.
We were commissioned by the Home Office to design a triage model that will assess individuals for the suitability of these interventions, this triage model launched in November 2024 and will be tested and evaluated in order to prepare for national roll out in 2026.
Purpose:
The DAPO Service Manager will manage the operational, and strategic delivery of the DAPO team pilot working closely with the Practice and Development Lead and Programme Manager.
The postholder will have responsibility for managing all DAPO triage teams who are working locally and remotely in the DAPO pilot sites.
This role will require
a) the effective line management of Triage Team Leaders (who in turn manage triage workers and IDVAs), in providing a high-quality frontline service triaging DAPO referrals for positive requirements
b) the development and maintenance of a multi-agency infra structure that actively engages with the triage team and the triage process
c) working with the Practice and Development Lead and Programme Manager to ensure safe and effective delivery of the DAPO pilot triage process.
d) support the development of the DAPO triage model through learning and analysis of the pilot delivery e.g. to initiate, develop, maintain and monitor multi-agency links through procedures and protocols, and to keep safety central to all services for perpetrators and victims of domestic abuse.
