Join Our Team!

 
 

Update (October 2022): We will be accepting applications for the vacant roles (indicated below) on an ongoing basis, until they have been filled. Please send a CV and cover letter to info@gfgd.org outlining which role/s you are interested in within the email.

Later this year, we will launch a new strategy. This will bring a renewed focus on delivering high quality research and analysis, actively engaging in policy processes (including at the global level), and strengthening capacity through education and training. Working on these three interlinked priorities, we embrace the ‘leave no one behind’ ethos running through the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

To help deliver this strategy, we are looking to grow our team of volunteers. We welcome applications from those at all stages of their career (student to senior professional) with the right skills and experience, and particularly welcome applications from groups currently underrepresented in the geoscience community.

Being part of our work will give you the opportunity to learn new skills, strengthen your understanding of the charity sector, meet others who are passionate about geoscience for sustainability, and make a real difference to our work and the delivery of the SDGs.
