A letter from Matthew
Thank you for thinking about applying to work with Tearfund, to help us fulfil our vision to see 50 million people released from material and spiritual poverty through a worldwide network of 100,000 local churches.
We’re passionate about bringing Christ into the heart of everything we do, and working to the highest standards of professional excellence to serve people who are living in some of the world’s poorest communities. Our areas of expertise include emergency relief, long-term sustainable development and advocacy, and we measure ourselves against ambitious standards, both internally and with external accreditations.
We believe that the people who will make this happen are Christ-centred, courageous, compassionate, truthful and servant-hearted, and so these are the values we adopt in our day-to-day work and the qualities we look for in prospective colleagues.
If you share our passion and would like to join us in building fruitful and life-bringing relationships with each other, with our partner organisations, local churches, and supporters, and with the people whom we serve, we welcome your application.
May God guide you as you consider taking the next steps on your journey.
