Work with our Global Hub
Water For People's Global Hub supports the organization through fundraising, operations, communications, monitoring, learning, and more – so country teams can drive local and national impact.
Our Belief in Changing the World
Water For People works across nine countries, working locally and nationally to ensure communities have lasting water access, dignified bathrooms, and the tools to ensure these services will last for generations to come.
Our workplace is inclusive and diverse, where you can bring your whole self while making an impact. We are committed to a Global Hub that is truly global, where the majority of our colleagues are based in the countries where we work.
Our Commitment to Organizational Transformation
Through our transformation committees, we are continuously building a culture of equity and inclusion. Our flexible work environment, which encompasses several perks, invites a balance of work and personal life.
We are increasing the Global Hub team members based in the countries where we operate, so our recruitment efforts are focused on the nine countries in which we work – Bolivia, Guatemala, Honduras, Peru, India, Malawi, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Uganda.

What to Expect After You Apply
A real person will review all qualified applications.
Next, you can expect to chat with a Talent Team member to explore what you can bring to the position. This is a video or phone interview.
Depending on the role, you may complete a technical or other type of assessment.
Because we work as a team, we also interview as a team. You can expect one or more video panel interviews. These interviews are just as important to you as they are to us. We want you to be excited and informed about joining Water For People.
In the final stage, we contact at least two business references, complete background checks, and ensure there is no conflict of interest.
Finally, a verbal offer is extended, and if accepted, a start date is agreed upon and a formal offer letter is generated.
You join Water For People and become part of our mission to end the global water and sanitation crisis.
