About Chayn

Chayn is a global nonprofit making healing accessible for all survivors of gender-based violence. By reimagining technology, we create online resources that are trauma-informed, multilingual, and feminist, supporting survivors to heal at their own pace, wherever they are.

Chayn started in 2013 to provide survivors of abuse with accurate, diverse and accessible information. Since our beginnings, over 700,000 people have accessed our award-winning work online, generating 1.2 million page views. Up to 70% of our volunteers are survivors of abuse, which means not only are our projects user-centred; they are user-led.

We are experts in trauma-informed work and have developed trauma-informed design principles that we apply at every level of the organisation, from HR to user research and UX/UI. We are one of only a few feminist technology organisations tackling gender-based violence while creating and maintaining openly licensed products and code.

While we’ve been going for over 10 years, Chayn was entirely volunteer-led until 2020, when we started to grow our team of paid staff. We are now a core team of 11, with up to 10 supporting contractors and a team of contributing volunteers, working together remotely from all over the world.

Communications Graduate

⚓ Location: Fully remote, you can be based anywhere in the world

⏱️ Hours: Full-time, 30 hours per week

💰 Salary: £1,800/month

📜 Contract: 12 months with possible extension subject to funding and performance

👤 Reporting to: Head of Communications

🕰️ Deadline: Tuesday, June 30, 2026

The role

We’re looking for a creative, thoughtful and organised Communications Graduate to help us tell people about Chayn’s work and reach more survivors, supporters and partners.

You’ll work across our social media, newsletters, website, campaigns and organisational communications. You might spend one day turning research about gender-based violence into an accessible social media post, another helping launch a new resource, and another looking at our analytics to understand what is reaching people and what we could do differently.

This is a graduate role, so we don’t expect you to arrive knowing everything. You’ll receive guidance and support from our Head of Communications while gaining practical experience across digital communications, campaigning, storytelling and content management in an international feminist nonprofit.

Your brief

You’ll help us create communications that are clear, useful and recognisably Chayn.

Your work will include:

• Drafting and scheduling content for Chayn’s social media channels
• Writing and editing newsletters, blogs, website copy and campaign materials
• Helping plan and deliver campaigns, resource launches and organisational announcements
• Turning complex research and sensitive subjects into content that is accessible, engaging and easy to understand

• Engaging thoughtfully with our online community
• Supporting our commercial partnerships efforts via LinkedIn and our newsletter
• Monitoring social media, website and newsletter performance and helping us learn from the results
• Researching relevant news, trends, awareness dates and conversations relating to gender-based violence, technology and survivor support
• Supporting communications for events, partnerships, fundraising and organisational updates
• Helping coordinate communications requests from across the Chayn team

Your biggest challenge

Communicating about gender-based violence requires care.

Our content needs to be honest about harm without being sensationalist, and warm without becoming vague or patronising. We speak to people who may be experiencing trauma, as well as supporters, partners, funders and organisations working in the sector.

You’ll need to think carefully about language, context, accessibility and power. Sometimes you’ll be working with complicated research or difficult subject matter and will need to find a way to make it understandable without losing its meaning.

We don’t expect you to do this alone. You’ll work closely with the Head of Communications and other members of the team, using Chayn’s trauma-informed design principles and safeguarding approach to guide your work.

Your profile

We’re interested in people who care about language, ideas and how communications can contribute to social change.

You may have recently graduated in communications, marketing, journalism, media, design, humanities, social sciences, international development, gender studies or another relevant subject. We also recognise that people develop communications skills in many different ways, so we welcome applications from people whose experience does not fit neatly into one academic route.

Essential

• Strong written English and the ability to communicate ideas clearly
• A thoughtful and sensitive approach to writing about gender-based violence, trauma and survivor support
• Good organisational skills and attention to detail
• An interest in digital communications, storytelling and campaigning
• The ability to research a subject and summarise what you find
• Confidence using Google Workspace or similar digital tools
• The ability to manage your time and work independently in a remote team
• Openness to feedback and a willingness to learn
• An understanding of intersectionality and systems of oppression
• An affinity with Chayn’s mission and organisational values

Desirable

You do not need to meet all of these:

• Experience creating social media posts, newsletters, blogs, videos or website content
• Experience gained through an internship, student project, volunteering, activism or paid work
• Familiarity with tools such as Canva, Mailchimp, Hootsuite, and Notion
• An understanding of digital accessibility or writing for different online audiences
• Basic experience using analytics to understand how content is performing
• Familiarity with SEO
• Experience working remotely or as part of an international or multicultural team
• Knowledge of another language

What you’ll gain

During the 12 months, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Build a varied portfolio of published communications work
• Learn how trauma-informed and survivor-centred principles shape communications in practice
• Gain experience across campaigns, social media, newsletters, websites and digital analytics
• Work alongside colleagues across programmes, survivor services, fundraising, research and operations
• Develop your writing, editing, planning and content production skills
• Learn how a small, international feminist organisation communicates with different audiences around the world

Inclusion

At Chayn, inclusion and accessibility are at the core of our work. We welcome applicants from all walks of life. Given the nature of our work and our global audience, we particularly encourage applications from those who grew up in the Global South or Majority World.

We also encourage applications from people of colour, LGBTQ+ people—we are a trans-inclusive organisation—people with disabilities, and people who have experienced exclusion or marginalisation. Up to 70% of our team members are survivors of abuse, so if you are one too and are thinking of applying, know that you will be in a safe and affirming space.

We aim to make our recruitment process as accessible as possible, but know there may be more we can do. If you have particular accessibility needs or require additional support, please contact us so we can think together about how to make the process easier for you.

💰 Salary: £1,800/month

📜 Contract: 12 months with possible extension subject to funding and performance

👤 Reporting to: CEO

🕰️ Deadline: Tuesday, June 30, 2026

The role

We’re looking for a thoughtful, organised and motivated Business Development Graduate to help Chayn build the relationships and resources we need to sustain and grow our work.

You’ll work across fundraising, grants, donor engagement and partnerships. You might spend one day researching a funder whose priorities align with ours, another helping prepare a grant application, and another drafting an update that shows supporters what their funding has made possible.

This is a recent graduate role, so we don’t expect you to arrive knowing everything. You’ll work closely with our CEO and other members of the team, gaining practical experience in fundraising and business development within a small, international feminist nonprofit.

Your brief

You’ll help us identify opportunities, build strong relationships and communicate clearly about Chayn’s work and impact.

Your work will include:

• Researching trusts, foundations, institutional donors and other funding opportunities that align with Chayn’s work
• Helping prepare grant applications, proposals, budgets and supporting documents
• Maintaining accurate records of funding opportunities, applications, deadlines and reporting requirements
• Supporting the coordination and delivery of funded projects, including monitoring deadlines and gathering information from across the team
• Helping prepare grant reports and other updates for funders
• Collecting and organising monitoring, evaluation and impact information
• Supporting individual giving campaigns and fundraising events
• Researching prospective donors and opportunities to grow Chayn’s supporter community
• Drafting donor communications, including thank-you messages, appeals, newsletters and project updates

• Helping coordinate online and in-person events for funders, partners and supporters
• Monitoring fundraising activity and helping us understand what is working
• Supporting fundraising reporting for Chayn’s leadership team and Board of Trustees
• Keeping donor and partner information organised and up to date

Your biggest challenge

Fundraising for work on gender-based violence can be complicated.

You’ll need to communicate the urgency and value of Chayn’s work without sensationalising survivors’ experiences or presenting people only through the harm they have experienced. Our fundraising must reflect the same trauma-informed, survivor-centred and feminist principles that guide the rest of our organisation.

You’ll also need to balance different priorities and deadlines. Funding applications often require input from several people, detailed information and quick turnaround times. You’ll need to be organised, ask good questions and follow up with people while recognising that you are working within a small and busy team.

We don’t expect you to manage this alone. You’ll receive guidance from the CEO and work with colleagues across Chayn to develop your skills and understanding.

Your profile

We’re interested in people who are curious about how social-impact organisations build relationships, secure funding and create the conditions for their work to continue.

You may have recently graduated in humanities, social sciences, international development, business, communications, gender studies or another relevant subject. We also recognise that useful skills can be developed through volunteering, activism, community organising and other routes, so we welcome applicants whose experience does not fit neatly into one academic pathway!

Essential

• Strong written and verbal communication skills in English
• The ability to research a topic and identify the most relevant information
• Good organisational skills and close attention to detail
• The ability to manage deadlines and keep accurate records
• Confidence using Google Workspace, Microsoft Office or similar digital tools

• A proactive approach and willingness to take initiative
• The ability to work independently and collaboratively in a small remote team
• Openness to feedback and a willingness to learn
• An understanding of intersectionality and systems of oppression

Desirable

You do not need to meet all of these:

• Experience in fundraising, business development, partnerships or nonprofit work
• Experience gained through an internship, student project, volunteering, activism or paid work
• Familiarity with grant applications, proposal writing or donor reporting
• Experience conducting prospect or funding research
• Experience writing newsletters, appeals, reports or other external communications
• Familiarity with databases, customer relationship management systems or fundraising trackers
• Experience supporting events, campaigns or partnerships
• Basic experience with budgets, data or monitoring and evaluation
• Experience working remotely or as part of an international or multicultural team

What you’ll gain

During the 12 months, you’ll have the opportunity to:

• Gain practical experience across grants, fundraising, donor engagement and partnerships
• Develop your research, proposal-writing and relationship-management skills
• Learn how a small international nonprofit builds a sustainable and values-aligned funding model
• Contribute to real funding applications, campaigns and donor communications
• Learn how trauma-informed and survivor-centred principles shape fundraising in practice
• Work alongside colleagues across programmes, communications, survivor services and operations
• Build a portfolio of fundraising and business development work

About LEEP

LEEP is an impact-driven, evidence-based nonprofit that aims to eliminate childhood lead poisoning, which affects an estimated one in three children worldwide. We primarily focus on one important source of exposure: lead paint. Our paint programs involve generating data, supporting governments with the introduction and enforcement of regulation, and assisting manufacturers in switching to lead-free paints. Beyond our paint programs, we are piloting interventions to address other sources of lead exposure, such as spices and cosmetics.

Since our founding in September 2020:

• We have initiated lead paint elimination programs in 40 countries; completed 33 paint studies; and agreed on goals to establish lead paint regulation with government agencies in 18 (e.g., Angola). 
• We’ve made crucial progress in engaging with manufacturers in 22 countries (e.g., Pakistan), and in reducing the lead paint market share in Ghana, Malawi and Pakistan. 
• Founders Pledge estimates that it costs $1.66 to prevent one child’s lead exposure (in expectation) through our work, making LEEP one of its most cost-effective nonprofit recommendations. Our own analysis estimates that it costs under $5 to avert one DALY equivalent through LEEP’s first 13 established programs.
• We are a partner of the WHO and UN Environment Programme’s Global Alliance to Eliminate Lead Paint and a member of the Partnership for a Lead-Free Future.
• We have received grants from major grantmaking organisations, including Founders Pledge, Coefficient Giving, Bloomberg Philanthropies, USAID, and Schmidt Futures.
• We have appeared in Nature, Vox, Time Magazine, The New Yorker, Prospect, on the 80,000 Hours Podcast, and our co-founders were named in Vox’s Future Perfect 50.

About the Role

As a key leader in the organisation, you will manage and inspire a talented group of Program Managers, guiding them to deliver meaningful results whilst thriving in LEEP’s dynamic, fast-paced work environment. 

This role goes beyond exceptional people management. You will provide strategic guidance to your team on the steps of our paint programs, act as a trusted escalation point for program partners, and tackle context-specific challenges with creativity. This involves offering nuanced guidance on government engagement, building strong relationships with policymakers, advising on how to tailor messaging for diverse industry audiences, and navigating cross-cultural stakeholder dynamics. You should enjoy international travel, and your adaptability will enable you to step in wherever LEEP and your team need you most.

With significant responsibility in a growing organisation and direct line management from LEEP’s Program Director, you will collaborate closely with both LEEP’s senior leadership and your peers. Together, you’ll translate LEEP’s long-term goals into tangible outcomes, lead cross-functional projects to refine our systems and playbook, and potentially contribute beyond our lead paint programs as we broaden our scope.

As a Senior Manager, you must bring exceptional people skills and strategic insight to a role that is critical to driving LEEP’s next phase of growth and amplifying our global impact.

Responsibilities

• Strategic program guidance (40%)
  • Provide strategic oversight and feedback on Program Managers’ plans and implementation
  • Support your team throughout meetings, trips, and key milestones, offering guidance while empowering them to drive forward implementation
  • Act as a trusted advisor, troubleshooting roadblocks and guiding complex decisions or adjustments as needed
  • Serve as the escalation point for key stakeholders, including government officials, who are critical to eliminating lead paint
