We want a world where no one dies from hunger. Life-threatening hunger is predictable, preventable and treatable. Join Action Against Hunger and together we will stop it in its tracks.
Action Against Hunger is an optimistic, inspiring place to work. We want passionate and dedicated people to help build a better world. We’re a creative team made up of people with a wide range of talents, styles and expertise. But we are united in our relentless dedication to end world hunger. No challenge is too big. With you we can do it. Join us.
We are looking for a senior solicitor who is passionate about working for an international humanitarian organisation and who shares the values of Action Against Hunger and the wider sector.
Working with the Chief Executive and the Executive Committee of Directors, you will act as Company Secretary and as head of a small Legal and Governance team. This will involve providing high quality advice on legal, risk, compliance and governance matters across the UK organisation and progressing strategic priorities to ensure first class management of these areas.
You will respond to a broad range of legal queries and develop robust policies and procedures to advise on compliance with legal, regulatory and donor requirements, voluntary standards and best practice. You will be confident in working independently to provide high quality advice, drafting and reviewing contracts, preparing and delivering training, working with the Board of Trustees and instructing external counsel where appropriate. You will also work closely with the Executive Committee and the Board Audit, Risk and Compliance Committee to support reporting and management of risks across the organisation.
This is an exciting opportunity for a senior solicitor who is looking to build experience in the NGO sector and work in a broad, challenging and interesting role as part of a dynamic team. We would love to hear from you if you’re interested in joining us.
