About Oxfam

A simple, inescapable truth underlines everything we do at

Oxfam. There’s enough wealth in this world to go around. It’s

not unfortunate that people live in poverty. It’s

unjustifiable. It’s not just their problem. It’s ours too. And

with the right support, we can beat poverty and injustice.

Thousands of people already commit their time and talents to

our campaigning, humanitarian and long-term development

projects. Now we’re looking for yours.

The role

This is an exciting role for Oxfam. You will work with Country

and Regional teams, Regional Programme Funding Manager and

thematic technical experts across Oxfam International to

develop and submit quality project proposals, concept notes and

tender documents for all aspects of Oxfam’s work in order to

increase levels of restricted funding for the Asia region and

to achieve income targets established in the regional funding

strategy. (Fiscal year 2015 – 2017: 5 to 7 high value bids of

£2 million and above and 10 medium value bids £750,000 to 2

million). You will also contribute to new business development

and entrepreneurial approaches to fundraising, including

philanthropies and working with private sector.

What we’re looking for

You will demonstrate experience preparing successful

evidence-based, high quality concept notes, programme/project

proposals and tender documents and budgets targeting diverse

donors. You will excel at persuading, influencing, negotiating

in order to achieve fundraising targets in a multi-cultural

environment. Experience of new ways of fundraising from

non-traditional donors including philanthropies as well as

institutional donors is also essential. You will be comfortable

establishing and cultivating strong donor relationships that

have delivered substantially increased income. We’ll also

expect you to share our passion and our commitment to

eradicating extreme inequality, and changing the rules that

keep some people poor whilst others prosper. If you are keen to

make a contribution to helping some of the poorest people

around the world, within a team that is determined to hit its

targets, this is the role for you.
