NO AGENCIES

Job Title: Associate / Paid Internship
Contract Type: 3-month contract initially with strong potential for extension 
Hours: Flexible (3 – 5 days a week) 7.5 hours per working day
Location: Street Child London HQ (minimum 3 days per week in the office and the remainder at home) 
Pay: the National Minimum Wage in place at the time

Street Child are delighted to launch the next round of our associate scheme, with several placements available for outstanding, highly motivated individuals looking to launch, or progress, a career in the humanitarian/development sector. The Street Child Associate programme is a fantastic entry-level opportunity to gain a breadth of experience whilst making a serious contribution to Street Child’s vital work. Prior professional experience is not required but is very much valued - this opportunity is highly-appropriate for candidates considering switching careers. Strong academic results and qualifications (e.g. a relevant Masters) are naturally a significant advantage – but we will absolutely consider all engaging, passionate applications. Candidates who demonstrate superb writing abilities will be prioritised.

This is not an internship where you ‘do the photocopying and make the tea’. You will be doing material, varied, hands-on work from day one. Moreover, Street Child has an strong track-record of rewarding outstanding Associates with permanent positions in the UK team; and/or the opportunity to be seconded to one of our country programmes, for those considering a field-career in humanitarian/development.

Associates will have the opportunity to build skills and experience across a breadth of core fundraising disciplines, as well as excellent exposure to the broader programmatic work of the charity, with opportunities for engagement. Key duties may include: research; proposal drafting, design and writing; supporter engagement; participant support & management (for our events & sponsored challenges); data management and administration; communication support (including social media). Prior experience in any of these areas is not essential but would be beneficial. What is essential is demonstrating outstanding aptitude, passion, and the desire to make an impact and progress your personal development, fast. Training is provided.

Associates are typically recruited into one of the core UK teams - communications; corporate fundraising; events; programme funding & philanthropy; operations & programme support; public fundraising. Opportunities to move teams once recruited are not guaranteed but often become available, especially for high-performers. When applying, is not essential to specify which teams you are especially interested in joining - but you are welcome to. 

These are demanding roles (lots of adverts say this, to be clear: here it is true) - and are suited to passionate, ambitious individuals who enjoy being busy, stretched and working hard (actually – again these are not just trite advert lines; this opportunity is only appropriate for those for whom this is accurate!).

Associate roles are paid at the appropriate National Minimum Wage rate and are initially expected to work 3 – 5 days a week during the first 3 months. This arrangement may be positively reviewed at the 3-month stage, especially in the case of excellent performance.

You would be primarily working from our Central London office.

Key requirements:

• Demonstrable passion for, and specific desire to build a career in, the international development/humanitarian sector - as opposed to the ‘charity sector’ more broadly ;
• Excellent inter-personal and communication skills;
• Strong organisational abilities;
• Super flexible, willing attitude - will excel at frequently moving between different tasks, as business needs dictate.
• Strong academic results and qualifications (e.g. a relevant Masters) are naturally a significant advantage – but we will absolutely consider all engaging, passionate applications. Candidates who demonstrate superb writing abilities will be prioritised.
• Prior professional experience is not required but is very much valued.  This opportunity is highly-appropriate for candidates considering switching careers into the humanitarian/development space
• Diversity is important to us at Street Child. We especially welcome applications from, and expect to offer associateships to candidates with backgrounds typically under-represented in the sector and/or reflecting the communities we seek to serve.

About Street Child:

Street Child believes that every child deserves the chance to go to school and learn. Our projects focus on a combination of education, child protection and livelihood support to address the social, economic and structural issues that underpin today’s education crisis. We partner with local organisations and communities to deliver our locally rooted programmes, using evidence to drive learning and the refinement and scale up of programmes to create maximum impact for the most children at the lowest cost. We pride ourselves on being willing to go to the world’s toughest places where others won’t, including remote, hard-to-reach areas and fragile, disaster-affected states across sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and Ukraine. Since 2008 we have helped over 1,500,000 children to be safe, in school and learning.

How to Apply:

To apply for this fantastic opportunity, please send your CV and a compelling covering letter. CVs will be reviewed upon receipt.

1. Experience (1 year minimum) in a policy related role for an organisation, government department, think tank or NGO.

Our vision is that no-one dies of their blood cancer or their treatment.  However, despite all the progress we have made so far, we know through our Blood Cancer Action Plan, blood cancer survival rates in the UK are not keeping up with countries of similar wealth and health and there are clear disparities in outcomes depending on geographic location and ethnicity. The blood cancer community deserves better.

The focus of the Health Inequalities and Involvement Lead is to be the subject matter expert on health inequalities and involvement for the charity. They will lead our strategic approach to equality, diversity and inclusion, and reducing health disparities.  They will provide operational support to ensure we meet our ambitions to increase our reach into under-represented communities across all areas of our work across direct support and systems-influencing to improve survival. 

The majority of our roles can be performed hybrid which means you will be required to attend the London office 1 or 2 times per month in addition to regular in person engagement with relevant community groups.

We are committed to actively promoting equality, diversity, and inclusivity. In line with our strategy we welcome approaches from individuals from underrepresented groups, including minority communities, and applicants with a disability, to better reflect the community we serve and help broaden our perspectives.
