We're working towards a Lancashire where everyone can have the best mental health and wellbeing possible
The client requests no contact from agencies or media sales.
We pride ourselves on being a values-driven organisation, and we’re looking for a likeminded fundraiser to join the team in this new role.
Blending storytelling with statistics, events management with stakeholder engagement, and research with data protection, this varied role would be ideal for someone with an interest in criminal justice who communicates as well in person as they do on paper.
You don’t need to have been a fundraiser before, but experience in a similar position – with that mix of relationship building, words and numbers – would be beneficial.
Research tells us that marginalised groups of people may not apply for jobs unless they meet 100% of the criteria. We also know that fundraisers come from many backgrounds with different experiences that might not seem “standard” – and that’s okay! We value people who bring unique perspectives and knowledge to our team.
You might not feel like you check all the boxes as you read this job pack. That could be because of impostor syndrome or a confidence gap, especially if you’ve been marginalised or excluded in the past. But we hope you’ll apply anyway because what’s most important to us is having shared values and attitudes to work – the rest we can work on through our culture of feedback and development.

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.

We are currently operating within a 4-day working week as part of a Shorter Working Week Trial. All our full-time employees work a 30-hour week with a Friday off as standard until May 2025.
We offer an excellent benefits package including a competitive salary and annual leave / vacation days . We also offer healthcare insurance and policies to support you during key life events.
