Chief Executive Officer

Our approach is to raise funds in the UK to support locally led implementing partners who deliver a wide range of projects including those that focus on maternal health, education, disability, women and girls, neglected tropical disease, supporting the vulnerable, and post-crisis recovery.

· Delivering strategic and fundraising plans aligned to the charity’s vision and values

· Responsible for all financial, legal and corporate functions

· Ensuring robust financial management and the overall financial health of the charity

· Delivering strong leadership to inspire, empower, motivate and maintain productivity

· Leading on all partner relationships in Ethiopia and in the UK
