Discover life-giving possibilities Lifeblood is more than just a job or a career, it’s an opportunity to be part of something that matters. As an organisation, our purpose is simple: to give life. Together, we want to help you build a fulfilling career with Lifeblood.
About the role: Lifeblood provides international humanitarian support for blood programs through the Global Advisory Panel (GAP) which is an international group providing corporate governance and risk management support and advice to Red Cross Red Crescent Society Blood Services globally. Humanitarian support programs delivered through GAP and Lifeblood rely on external funding. These humanitarian programs provide much needed support to low resource countries to help them improve access to safe and sufficient blood supplies to meet the needs of their communities.
The primary purpose of the role is to provide specialist knowledge and expertise in developing funding proposals and grant applications to help seek program funding for both GAP and Lifeblood’s humanitarian blood program support projects. This role is a fixed-term part-time opportunity working 19 hours per week until April 2025. We are offering a hybrid work model with the flexibility to work from any one of our National Head Offices.
