Careers to Help Animals in Africa

Highly selective 1:1 career advising for individuals who want to use their careers to create meaningful, long-term impact for farmed animals in Africa.

This pilot is designed for people who are already motivated and capable, but want clearer direction, strategic feedback, and honest guidance on where they can do the most good.

Our career advising provides personalised, impact-focused support to help you:

  • Clarify where your skills, experience, and constraints best fit the animal advocacy ecosystem

  • Explore impactful career paths beyond a narrow set of nonprofit roles

  • Think strategically about trade-offs, timing, and longer-term career trajectories

  • Pressure-test your plans with advisors who understand the African context

This is not general career coaching. It is targeted, strategic advising, grounded in AAA’s research, field experience, and network.

Who is this for?

Apply now

Career advising is highly selective and intended for people who:

  • Are serious about building a career that helps farmed animals in Africa

  • Have demonstrated strong motivation, judgement, and follow-through

  • Are at a decision point or transition where advice could materially change their trajectory

  • Are open to honest feedback, including challenges to initial assumptions

You do not need to be based in Africa, but your plans should meaningfully connect to improving outcomes for animals on the continent.

What to expect

The 1:1 career advising typically includes:

  • One 45–60 minute 1:1 advising call

  • Substantive follow-up guidance tailored to your situation

  • Warm introductions, where clearly helpful and appropriate

  • Access to AAA’s alumni community

Support is focused on helping you make better decisions - not on maximising volume or frequency of engagement.

What we do not provide

To keep this pilot focused and high-impact, it does not include:

  • Ongoing accountability coaching or regular check-ins

  • Long-term mentorship arrangements

  • Deep CV rewrites or application editing services

  • Guaranteed placements or job offers

  • Extensive job sourcing as a default

We aim to be clear about boundaries upfront, so expectations are well aligned on both sides.
