Why work with us?
WorldShare has a deep and rich history of supporting local Christian partnerships worldwide, and we are ambitious and innovative about our future.
We are passionate about our cause of restoring hope and transforming lives – and by working with WorldShare, you will make a direct contribution to this vision.
We do things differently:
- We support locally-led development as we believe this is the most effective and sustainable way to transform lives. We know that local people best understand their communities, both the problems and the solutions, and they are with their communities for the long haul.
- We deliberately seek out grassroots organisations, which typically miss funding from larger international NGOs. Our partners might be small, but they make a significant impact! Choosing grassroots organisations means that we deliberately choose to engage in deeper, more intensive partnership support.
- We believe the gospel is best shown in word AND deed, and our overseas partners pursue an integral mission.
- We love partnerships, and we delight in connecting Australians with partnerships overseas. Together, we can do more. We all have a part to play.
WorldShare cares for and respects employees and is a spiritual and collaborative environment, as well as workplace flexibility, regular time for spiritual practices, paid parental leave and professional development.
