The organization values a collaborative and inclusive work culture, offering employees opportunities for personal and professional growth, flexibility in work arrangements, and the chance to make a tangible difference in the world. Founded in 1958, VSO’s history is rooted in volunteerism, and it has evolved to leverage the skills and expertise of volunteers to tackle complex global challenges.

Its innovative business model is built around volunteerism for development, with volunteers bringing their professional skills to countries in need, helping to build capacity and create long-lasting change. With a presence in over 20 countries across Africa, Asia, and the Pacific, VSO’s reach is both extensive and impactful.

VSO is the world’s leading international development charity that works through volunteers to create a fair world for everyone. At VSO we pride ourselves on doing development differently. We fight poverty not by sending aid, but by working through volunteers and partners to create long-lasting change in some of the world’s poorest regions. We bring key stakeholders together to co-ordinate collective action, from local organisations to national governments. Our programmes in Africa and Asia focus on health, education and livelihoods, with an increasing emphasis on resilience, peace building, social accountability, gender and social inclusion. We’re not about delivering quick fixes, but instead we focus on long-lasting, sustainable change that will improve the lives of generations to come.
