- Helped create Education Cannot Wait; the United Nations’ global, billion-dollar fund for education in emergencies
- Created The Jennifer Brown Research Laboratory investigating safe pregnancy and premature birth
- Set up the first-ever Youth Takeover of the UN

This is in addition to hybrid working with most staff taking one day a week based in the office. Other benefits include:
- Regular in-house training: from Microsoft Office skills to social media and international campaigning
- Travel: there are opportunities to travel and visit our global projects and we send a team to the annual United Nations General Assembly in New York
- Central London location: 5 mins from Liverpool St Station and Moorgate with transport links to National Rail, the tube and Elizabeth Line
- Highly competitive salaries
Why work for us?
If you care about issues like climate change, gender equality, inclusion, helping refugees and ensuring the voices of young people are represented at all levels of decision-making, then education is the key to unlocking big change in these areas. If you want to make change happen, join us!
