“My role involves programme development and delivery as well as fundraising through working closely with country offices across the regions that Plan International Operates in.


Addressing social injustice and ensuring realisation of rights speaks to me at both a personal level and professionally. I have always been passionate about creating lasting change for girls and women.


I enjoy working with colleagues in Plan UK and across the wider Plan Family including those working close to the point of impact to cocreate programmes that bring transformative change and lasting impact in the lives of the children, young people and the girls we serve. I enjoy working closely with our programme participants as we engage them as active participants in our programming work and not as passive recipients of aid”.

"I bring colleagues together through opportunities that celebrate brilliant work, support knowledge sharing, and encourage social connection. In a changing and unpredictable world, these moments play an important role in fostering an inclusive culture where people feel a genuine sense of belonging.


Plan is such a vibrant and inspiring place to work. I draw constant motivation from the uniquely talented people around me, whose commitment to the sector and gender equality runs deep.


As a mum to a daughter, I now have a stronger sense of purpose and determination to help build a future where women and girls are safe, valued, and able to thrive. This is one of the many reasons why I chose to join the incredible team at Plan."

“I Joined Plan International UK 22 years ago… I wanted a change from the private sector, and while I hadn’t thought of the charity sector at the time, Plan International UK was a good fit in terms of the work environment, career prospects, and Plan International’s mission to help all children in need. Staff are very friendly and at the same time incredibly talented, professional, and efficient. It’s more than just a job, with multiple social clubs including softball, badminton, and film club to name a few.”

“I have been working at Plan International UK for over three years now in across three different roles. I started at Plan International UK in the Supporter Engagement team in 2021, moving to the role of Individual Giving Coordinator in 2022. I am now working as the Legacies Marketing Officer. I write the legacy stewardship communications such as emails and postal mailings. I also help to organise annual legacy events and run digital campaigns (for example on Facebook) to raise awareness of the impact of leaving a gift in your will. I get to work on such a broad range of projects and I am developing a wide range of skills.


My highlight of working at Plan International UK is the people who I get to work with - I am so fortunate to be working in such a supportive environment and to get to interact with such inspiring and passionate colleagues every day.”
