Staff involvement

Merlin benefits from some fantastic volunteering arrangements with companies at our head office, ranging from three month secondments from Capital International, to one evening per week with a team from Barclays Global Investors IT department.

“I greatly enjoyed my time at Merlin! I learnt about the management and organisation of emergency relief in crisis areas, and gained insight into how an internationally operating NGO works in practice. I was very impressed by the efficiency of Merlin's operations and the passion and professionalism of Merlin’s staff.”
- Lara Pellini, Equity Investment Analyst, Capital Group Companies

We are delighted to be able access specialist advice, from pro bono legal assistance to the development of a bespoke presentation skills course. We have many more volunteering projects to be fulfilled - please do get in touch to find out more.
