CAMFED International UK
Working at CAMFED UK
"CAMFED International's UK office brings together a diverse team who collaborate together and with teams globally to bring resources, systems, and essential technical support behind the delivery of CAMFED's programmes in Africa. Our team is based across the UK, working on a hybrid basis and coming together regularly in our Cambridge office. Despite our geographic distance from programme delivery, we take significant pride in consistently putting the girls and young women we serve at the centre of our work. The strength of connection with colleagues in our Africa offices, and with members of the CAMFED Association, ensures we remain deeply rooted in the meaning and value of CAMFED’s mission. We are ambitious and results-driven, supportive and keen to learn - prioritizing a working culture that promotes integrity and enables personal and professional growth."

Local Benefits (in addition to our Global Benefits)
-
Flexible & Hybrid Working
We understand that neither life nor work fits neatly into a standard 9-5.30 in the office every day of the week, all of the time. We want to ensure that the high standards we expect from team members are reflected in a flexible approach to accommodating their personal needs.
All UK employees are provided with the tools to work from home or in the Cambridge office. Managers work directly with individuals on finding and agreeing the right balance. All we ask is that teams come together at least 12 times a year (usually once a month) to connect and learn together.
-
FORA Member Benefits
Being a FORA Office resident means that we have 24/7 access to the building, free gym, with access to over 60 locations across London, the UK, and Germany.
Our offices in collaboration with FORA offer free snacks, free fruit, free coffee and drinks, free wellbeing classes and many other activities and events, networking, member lunches and masterclasses.
We offer free parking near to the Cambridge office in partnership with local businesses.

Season Ticket Loans
All employees who have completed their probationary period are eligible to apply for an interest-free loan to help cover or contribute toward the purchase of a season ticket for commuting to work.
-
Cycle to Work Scheme
Employees who have completed their probationary period are eligible to purchase a bicycle and accessories (up to a value of £1,000) through https://www.cyclescheme.co.uk/. This is a salary sacrifice benefit, meaning the purchase is made from gross (pre-tax) income, resulting in savings on tax and National Insurance. The cost is repaid through monthly payroll instalments, with no upfront payment required.

Interest Free Loans
We offer short term personal loans to all team members. The loan is repaid monthly as a direct deduction from salary, within the calendar year in which it is advanced.
