Jobs & volunteering
Do you want to use your skills in a global team tackling injustice and poverty? You could play a vital role in our work
Working for CAFOD
All applicants for jobs are required to complete the application form and the equal opportunities monitoring form unless otherwise indicated.
We are unlikely to be able to obtain work permits or visas for overseas applicants who do not have the right to live and work in the UK.
If you do not hear from us within 14 days of the closing date, please assume your application has been unsuccessful on this occasion.
Give time - volunteer with CAFOD
Volunteers do important work for CAFOD - could you spare some time to be one?
Please note: We do not have volunteering opportunities for people living outside England and Wales.
If you have any problems accessing job descriptions or application forms, please email vacancies@cafod.org.uk
CAFOD has a few volunteering opportunities in Brixton, South London, mostly for one or two days a week for a minimum of three to six months
Could you offer some of your time to promote CAFOD's work in your parish, school or diocese? Whether you have plenty of spare time, or only a little, we have something for you
CAFOD's existence relies on volunteers in parishes who promote a wider understanding and support for its work. Find out more about what such volunteers do, and how you can become one
Melanie Cunningham writes about her important role as a CAFOD volunteer - and encourages others to take the same path
