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 800,000 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.

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 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
  • The ability to summarise complex information clearly and persuasively
  • 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
  • An affinity with Chayn’s mission and organisational value
