Vacancies

Admin and Accounts Assistant

Are you looking for an exciting opportunity where you can combine your administrative skills with finance tasks in a dynamic and meaningful work environment? Do you thrive in an international environment where your work contributes to a global human rights cause? Are you comfortable speaking and writing in Spanish? And do you know your way around Excel? Then this might be the role for you.

At IWGIA, we are looking for a committed and structured Admin and Accounts Assistant to support our Finance and Operations team. In this role, you will work closely with the Finance Assistant, Controller, and Head of Finance & Operations to ensure the smooth and efficient running of key financial and administrative functions and processes.

This is a varied role where you will gain experience across finance, administration, procurement, and internal systems support. You’ll be part of a small, skilled team in a professional yet informal work environment — and your contribution will help ensure that our internal operations match the high standards and requirements of our external partners and donors.

This position offers a unique opportunity to become part of an organization that works globally to promote and protect Indigenous Peoples’ rights. We value professionalism, collaboration, and initiative — and we strive to create a supportive, inclusive, and flexible working environment.

If you're ready to make a meaningful contribution while developing your skills in a dynamic and international NGO setting, we encourage you to apply.

Internship

IWGIA normally advertises for unpaid, communications internships in spring (April/May) for the autumn semester and in autumn (October/November) for the spring semester. Communications internships are advertised on our website, in our newsletter and via social media.

We do, on an ad-hoc basis take interns. In all cases, internships must be a formal part of your studies. Unfortunately, we do not have resources to render any kind of economic support, assistance with housing, etc.

We receive a large number of unsolicited applications for internships and volunteer work. Unfortunately we cannot follow up on all such requests; we hope for your understanding.
