Fulfilling and Engaging Entry Level Job - Fundraising Coordinator Theirworld Employee Review

Through the almost half year engagement that I’ve had with Theirworld to date, I’ve been inspired by the commitment, drive, and action to end the global education crisis. The organisation’s vision is lofty, to say the least, but we have the strategy, plan, resources, and tactical know how to move the needle in support of children across the globe. There was a major leadership transition at the organization in early 2019 as Justin van Fleet took the helm. As with any transition, change can be challenging – a large portion of what I suspect has led to the turnover over the past several months. My experience has proven leadership to be tremendously accessible and engaged in both the work and efforts to strengthen communication and transparency. Also, stay tuned for an exciting, impactful and innovative round of announcements this fall. The organisation’s behind-the-scenes efforts are about to be a bit more visible soon and will move the needle in ways not done before.

As the organisation has great ambitions, not for itself, but for children across the globe, this sometimes leads to taking on more projects than there is available bandwidth in a normal day/week. This is, of course, driven by the urgency associated with the global education crisis, but can pose a challenge with competing priorities and the need to identify extra resources in a very short time.

It’s full of amazing people who work hard and genuinely care about what they do (special shout out to the marcomms team) 4 day week is an absolute game changer The office is lovely

It would be nice to have had more team days to meet people working in different functions
