OPEN POSITIONS IN THE UNITED KINGDOM
WHY US?
With Animal Equality’s ambitious goals, it takes a team of dedicated, passionate and qualified individuals to change the lives of farmed animals across the globe. We’re so grateful for such an excellent team, and without them we wouldn’t have been able to save millions of farmed animals every year.
We are proud of our culture at Animal Equality, and our employees are too, with 100% of employees saying they are proud to work for our charity.
Our Culture
Animal Equality continuously encourages a culture of accountability and empowerment, where constructive and targeted feedback is given consistently and where empowerment results in better outcomes for animals. We value integrity and ownership, whilst developing staff’s grit and balance organisational and team needs.
We believe that with our careful stewardship of fund application, and strategic focus on the four areas of spreading awareness, investigative exposés, legal advocacy and philanthropy, that we stand out from the rest.
Grit!
At Animal Equality, our staff adapt and are flexible in a changing environment, while maintaining effectiveness, efficiency and grace. We persevere, overcoming difficulties in order to achieve our objectives. We encourage staff to push forward in the face of adversity, improving after each challenge and becoming ever-more capable, secure and self-reliant.
Diligent!
It’s vital that the team recognise the importance of their role within the wider organisation and the part it plays in sparing animals from suffering, and with our goals being so ambitious, a conscientious attitude and a can-do spirit is crucial.
Flexible & Patient!
We’re aware that achieving the vision of ending animal suffering takes time, so we ask that our employees show patience and take a calm, considered approach. With a constantly changing environment, staff aim to identify when we need to adapt and try new tactics to ensure the greatest impact for animals.
Team Player!
Positive working relationships are key to a great working culture, where everyone feels valued and respected. Our employees collaborate effectively and cooperatively with fellow colleagues across multiple countries, working as part of a friendly team of international co-workers.
Ownership & Pride!
We take ownership and responsibility for the work that we do, and expect the same of our employees. Our team can’t control all external factors, and so ask that they take a proactive, problem-solving and solutions-focused approach.
Integrity!
Integrity is a large part of our identity; it’s vital that employees align their behaviour with the values of Animal Equality and embrace honest and meaningful relationships with co-workers, donors and stakeholders. We continuously work to create a culture that is built on trust and confidence. With this, all members embrace feedback and value transparency.
Creative Flair!
With your key objectives in mind, you dare to be bold, showing creativity and innovation in your work. You are resourceful in your approach and you think outside of the box, producing interesting results that enable Animal Equality to reach new heights.
Professionalism!
We value a workplace that is supportive, professional and respectful, where everyone interacts with compassion and composure.
Growth Mindset!
With Animal Equality operating in eight different countries, global thinking is at the core of our success. Not only do we want to achieve our goals in the UK, we also want to achieve them globally, and in order to do this we ask that our team support Animal Equality’s growth culture by fostering innovation and creativity.
