Working at St Jude's

Join one of the largest charities of its kind in Africa

Do you want to use your talents to fight poverty through education?

St Jude’s is committed to supporting the community and employs around 300 Tanzanians and a number of international staff members. As a growing NGO, we are often hiring both academic and non-academic staff.

St Jude’s offers employees a flexible and welcoming community of international and local professionals, opportunities for career progression, morning tea and lunch on weekdays and a number of other benefits.

International applicants should note we do not accept short term volunteers (less than three months) due to our own policies, and the nature of Tanzanian visa requirements. Those who would prefer a short trip are welcome to visit St Jude’s.

As an equal opportunity workplace, St Jude’s strongly encourages female candidates to apply and welcomes applications by people from diverse backgrounds.

Spoken English Immersion Program

We’re seeking enthusiastic volunteers for the first-ever Spoken English Immersion Program at The School of St Jude in Arusha, Tanzania, a new initiative we plan to run every June. The 2026 program runs from 18 June to 4 July, with volunteers required to arrive by 17 June for a two-day planning session starting the next morning. Volunteers must commit to the full program, including weekdays and Saturday mornings.

The school will offer late-afternoon and weekend activities where volunteers can experience Tanzanian culture firsthand, plus enjoy the added bonus of exploring the local area and seeing world-renowned African wildlife nearby.
