VSO Programme Funding Manager, Asia Pacific (Indonesia)

Programme Funding Manager, Asia Pacific (Indonesia)

VSO helps make change happen. By bringing people together to share skills, build capabilities and promote understanding, we assist the fight against poverty in developing countries. We’re now looking for dynamic and influential people to join the Asia Pacific funding team to help us increase our income and reach our ambitious funding targets.

The role
We work in 17 countries across Asia Pacific – the region which is home to two thirds of the world’s people living in poverty. These programmes focus on Asia and the Pacific’s pockets of extreme poverty – often found within some of its most vibrant economies, like India and China. Our programmes across the region are different and based on local context, but have the following themes: unequal access of poor and marginalised groups to basic services such as education and healthcare; strengthening the resilience of poor and marginalised communities and, wherever possible, providing them with greater economic and social strength in the future; utilizing people as agents of change by encouraging them to become part of the development process as ‘active citizens’ - encouraging them to volunteer to help themselves and others  and to hold government to account through engaging and often creating local and national governance platforms.
These new roles will support our country programmes to find the funds we need to implement their exciting and innovative new strategies and make an impact on poverty. We need people to provide funding leadership across Asia Pacific whilst optimising income generation from a range of donors.
For more information, please refer to the job description.

You are a talented fundraiser with proven track record of securing significant levels of restricted income across a range of funding streams.
