We are looking for team members with a variety of skills but most importantly enthusiasm and an interest in human rights.

About the Organisation:    We are a diverse, friendly and active group of Human Rights activists, who meet regularly to campaign on, and discuss, a variety of issues. Comprised mainly, but not exclusively, of Amnesty International members, new members are always very welcome.  Why not join our Corby & Kettering group, and become a voice for the silenced and the oppressed?

What you will be doing:

Corby & Kettering Amnesty International is the local branch of Amnesty International. You would join us in campaigning for individuals and groups whose Human Rights have been restricted.

What's in it for you?     

  • Knowing that you are helping those who have fought for human rights     
  • Working as part of a friendly and committed team

What skills do I need?

  • Good written and oral communication skills       
  • Experience of team-working     
  • Basic IT competency (email, word processing, etc.) and internet access 
  • Experience of campaigning is always welcome but not essential – we find that people often have skills from something       else they have done that would be very helpful for the role, and a variety of different roles give opportunity to apply a           variety of different skills.

Location

This opportunity can be carried out whilst working from home.
