George House Trust is committed to challenging HIV related stigma and discrimination and raising public awareness about HIV.

We are looking for someone with excellent communication and organisational skills and an ability to build relationships with a range of individuals and professionals.

You will need experience of managing a project, establishing monitoring and evaluation systems and reporting to funders. You should also have significant experience of designing and delivering training and information resources. You must be committed to challenging HIV related stigma and to supporting individuals from a wide range of backgrounds to achieve their full potential.
