SURFAID INTERNATIONAL JOB VACANCIES 2025
BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT INTERN
SurfAid is an international non-profit organization that aims to improve the health, well-being, and self-reliance of families living in remote communities connected to us through surfing. At SurfAid, we believe that positive, sustainable, and long-lasting change can only be achieved through the active involvement of the locals in the places we work.
SurfAid is committed to a ‘hand up, not a handout’ philosophy, and our focus is on empowering and supporting local communities to enrich their own lives and increase their choices and possibilities for realizing their own potential. We strive for lasting improvement in the health, well-being, and resilience of remote communities by implementing community-led development programs that are clear in their goals, effective in their implementation, and subject to continuous monitoring and evaluation.
Headquartered in Australia, SurfAid strives to be a more sustainable organization by expanding its funding portfolio and partnerships in Indonesia.

We need several interns to help in conducting research on funding opportunities from international and local institutions.
