Undercover Boss
Oxfam (6x2)
Air date: Jul 22, 2014
CEO Mark Goldring is the man at the top of one of Britain's best known and biggest charities. Awarded a CBE for his life's work tackling poverty, he's responsible for Oxfam's balance sheet. But with income down by £18 million in a year, Mark's worried the charity is over stretched.
Mark goes undercover to investigate whether Oxfam is raising the maximum amount of money possible and spending it wisely. While undercover in the UK, he's surprised to discover flaws in the fundraising operation that could be costing millions, and is shocked that his British staff are fearful for their jobs.
When he travels across the world to a frontline disaster zone, he's frustrated by the dangerous conditions his employees are working in and wrestles with how to balance the typhoon victims' needs, his staff's well-being and Oxfam's finances.
