Why work with us?
At Chance for Childhood, we’re united by our belief and commitment to ensure that every child in Africa can thrive from their early years through to adulthood.
We work in partnership with local communities to educate and create lasting change for every child threatened by violence, neglect and conflict. To do that, we need experienced and committed people who share our values.
“I like working for Chance for Childhood beacuse this organisation gives me the opportunity to design and implement interventions that change children’s lives.”
Felicien – Head of Operations East Africa
“I am so proud to be part of a team that puts children first. As a parent to children with special educational needs, giving them the best possible start in life is my passion and its heart warming to know that I am part of making that difference for other children.”
Sian Underwood – Individual Giving Manager
“There are so many great things about my job. From working with brilliant overseas colleagues who are absolute experts in what they do, to standing side by side with Chance for Childhood’s funding partners, who are so committed to helping us achieve impact.”
Matt Zeqiri – Head of Fundraising
Our work culture and environment
We believe in being able to choose the working environment that allows us and our colleagues to do our best work.
That’s why we have a flexible working policy that allows for staggered and compressed hours, working from home and more.
Our values and commitment
We understand that everyone has a life and responsibilities that work has to fit around.
So, we support our colleagues to manage a healthy work-life balance, to promote better wellbeing and professional effectiveness.
We are AUTHENTIC
We operate with dedication, integrity and respect for our staff, our partners and the children we work with. We co-create sustainable solutions to development challenges, by creating spaces that support local ownership and facilitate equal decision-making.
We are COURAGEOUS
We seek creative, evidence-based solutions to emerging problems, respond agilely to take considered risks and drive innovation to continuously increase our positive impact on children’s lives. By recognising the knowledge and creativity that lies within the countries we work in, we seek to add value by challenging inequitable power dynamics and structural racism.
We are COLLABORATIVE
We acknowledge the critical role of local experts in delivering child-centred, sustainable development. We work with others to utilise our resources efficiently, maximising value for money and our impact on every child.
We are CHILD CENTRED
We believe that by centring the voices of children in all our work, we can seek to rebalance the unequal power dynamics that dictate their lives.
