About Concern:

Established in 1968, Concern is a non-profit, non-governmental humanitarian organisation, dedicated to the reduction of suffering and the ultimate elimination of extreme poverty in the world's poorest countries.

Concern's vision, our mission and our work are all defined by one goal – ending extreme poverty, whatever it takes. Concern strives for a world free from poverty, fear and oppression.

Concern works to develop and scale up effective, evidence-based interventions to promote optimum health, particularly among the most poor and vulnerable. Concern supports Health programmes (which include Nutrition and WASH) across 21 countries, as well as working in other sectors including Livelihoods and Education.

Our culture is values driven and we believe that our people are central to all that we do and are key to delivering on our goal of Reaching the Furthest Behind First. We are committed to ensuring a workplace where everybody feels valued and are enabled to succeed in their work and contribute to delivering on our mission.
