APPLICATION NOTES - PLEASE READ BEFORE APPLYING FOR VACANCIES

When applying for positions in the UK an application form must be completed. This can be downloaded by clicking on the link at the bottom of this page. We will not accept prepared CVs.

You must already have the right to work in the UK when applying for our vacancies, as our vacant positions do not necessarily qualify for a UK work permit.

The International Fund for Animal Welfare is committed to equal opportunities and appoints on merit. Only the information provided on the application form will determine whether you are shortlisted for the vacancy - we will not accept additional material that have not been specifically requested.

EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES FORM

Complete and return our Equal Opportunities Monitoring form as it helps us to ensure that our recruitment process is fair. We may not be able to process your application if you do not complete this form. The Equal Opportunities form is kept separate from your application and does not form part of the selection process.
