    Description

    About us

    The Joliba Trust supports grassroots development projects in Mali. Much of our work is on climate change adaptation and mitigation. We focus on sustaining rural livelihoods to provide long-term food, water and biodiversity security in particularly poor areas, improving the lives of women and providing opportunities for young people. See our website for further details.

    About the role

    We are looking for a well-organised person, to support our UK office with everyday administrative tasks and to help with fundraising. You will have the freedom to work on your own initiative in liaison with the Co-ordinator. Some of this can be done from home but there will need to be regular visits to our office in Chagford, Devon. It will start with routine administrative tasks and four hours a week, but there is scope for development of the job to more hours so that in time it could include work such as:

  • Dealing with donor correspondence and enquiries and thanking people for donations
  • Maintaining a diary for individual donors and trusts, drafting updates and sending off agreed final reports when they are due.
  • Setting up currency deals and arranging regular transfers to Mali
  • Drafting applications to new trusts who might support our work
  • Maintaining a donor database
  • Helping with promotion and publicity materials, the layout and checking of the annual report
  • Helping with the mailing of the annual report
  • Drafting social media posts and promotion of the website
  • Helping with media promotions
  • Keeping good filing systems
  • What we offer

    Our work directly with our partners and communities in Mali is rewarding, and much can be done with the support we receive. There is an opportunity to be involved with our partners and to understand priorities on the ground.

    The role is self-employed and starts at £12-15 an hour. It would be perfect for someone looking for a part time, flexible role and the job can potentially develop in time.

    About you

    We are looking for a sympathetic person who has good communication and writing skills, and who has a passion for grassroots development.

    The skills we think are key to this role are:

  • GCSE/A-Level and above
  • Writing and communication skills and attention to detail
  • Competence in the digital environment
  • Someone who will take great care in looking after our donor network
  • Someone with imagination and initiative in helping to develop new contacts
  • Team player and positive attitude when working with others
  • Adaptable and flexible in working style
  • To apply

    Please send your CV and a covering letter to detailing how you meet the required skills and experience.

    Due to capacity we will only be able to reply to successfully shortlisted applicants.
