We are a global fund seeking to end modern slavery. We act as a catalyst, working in the countries and sectors where it is highly prevalent. We invest in and partner with organisations and communities on the frontlines of ending slavery and exploitation. By partnering with survivors and those at risk of slavery as well as visionary investors, governments and anti-slavery organisations, we bring together the knowledge, capital and will, needed to dismantle the systems that allow slavery to exist and thrive. Through our investments and support, we aim to shift power, so that frontline organisations and communities can shape and drive the change required to bring modern slavery to an end.

The Managing Director oversees the entire program portfolio, including the hotspots, responsible supply chains, research and evaluation, and program operations. They guide program strategy, and as a member of the Senior Leadership Team, contributes to and furthers the Freedom Fund’s overall strategy and the day-to-day governance of the organisation. The Managing Director also plays a critical role in representing the organisation with governments, philanthropists, peer organisations, and the Freedom Fund Board of Trustees.
