A journey starts with one step. But, the step has to be in the right direction! Let us help you save time.
  • What job opportunities are there for me to work in a development agency?
  • How do I transfer my skills into the development sector?
  • What qualifications, courses or experience do I need to be an aid worker?
  • What work opportunities are there for me in a relief or development agency?
  • How could I use my training and experience to work in international development?
  • Why am I not getting any positive response from my applications?

If you have questions similar to these then there is no doubt this service is right for you.

A One to One provides you with advice and information about working within the development sector and comprises:

  • a conversation that can take between 1 to 2 hours and which provides an opportunity to consider your qualification, experience, skills, values and attitudes, motivation, expectations, opportunities, present and future goals and strategies to achieve your goal
  • space for you to get your questions answered
  • a review of your current CV

"I would like to say a big thank you for your help and support. I think the most important thing a one-to-one does is give you reassurance that what you are doing is tangible. I filled out over 25 applications working nearly every evening before I even got a interview and I'm not sure if I would kept on going if I had not received this reassurance. I see it all the time, people want to work in charity, get disheartened and go and work in recruitment or another sector which is relatively easy to penetrate.

The one-to-one service was invaluable in giving me the confidence to take my first step on the charity ladder, the advice you gave was spot on and I left your offices feeling rejuvenated. The experience I'm getting both in event management and in commercial fundraising is far more advanced than what I thought I would be enjoying at this stage and I'm very confident that I will get my dream move into development sooner than I otherwise envisaged. Thanks again and I hope you keep providing this fantastic service for many years to come."   GP 07
