Careers
A career with Women for Women International means working alongside a dynamic, ambitious and passionate team in the UK, US, Germany and our country offices.
We are committed to personal development for our team. You will have the opportunity to attend training workshops for personal and career development, as well as participating in our staff training days and bi-weekly all-staff meetings. With some roles, travel to visit our country offices may also be an option.
What we offer all of our employees:
- Your work-life balance is important to us, and we offer all our staff the option to work 70 hours over 9 working days and have every other Friday off where possible.
- We offer 25 days annual leave increasing by 1 day per year up to a maximum of 30 days, plus bank holidays.
- It is essential to save for your retirement. All permanent employees are eligible to join our group pension plan up to a maximum employer contribution of 7%.
- We work on a hybrid basis, you will be set up to work from home and have the option to work from our office in Borough whenever you want. We enjoy being back in the office a day or two a week to meet colleagues face to face.
- Your health and wellbeing is important to us and provide our Employee Assistance Programme to help you deal with personal and professional problems that could be impacting your home life or work life.
We are united by common values and ways of working, which we revisit as a team on an annual basis, and all staff participate in creating and owning together.
While we work remotely a lot of the time, our UK office is currently based in Central London, with great transport links and lots to do in the area. We have Social and Culture Committee, which organises social and well-being activites for the team such as yoga classes, holiday celebrations, drinks and more. As a member of our UK team, you can also participate in or volunteer at our exciting events throughout the year.
