The Opportunity
Living Goods is on a rapid growth trajectory. To support our ambitious goals, Living Goods seeks a highly motivated Manager to drive forward our efforts to secure institutional funding in the countries where we work. This new position will play a key role in identifying, cultivating, and engaging a wide range of stakeholders, including the US government, foreign governments, multi-lateral organizations, foundations, and corporations, based outside of the U.S. The primary focus of this role is on tracking, securing, and managing bi/multi-lateral funding, from identification to positioning to award. But, the role is about more than just securing financial support— we are looking for an individual who can develop opportunities to maximize our growth. This means, for example, exploring innovative funding mechanisms, striking key partnerships, and transforming the way we engage with our community of supporters in country. Working closely with the Living Goods’ Country Directors, Vice President of Partnerships, and Director of Business Development, the Manager will help craft and execute Living Goods’ long-term strategy to increase funding for community health.
The ideal candidate is a results-focused professional with vision and an entrepreneurial spirit. This is a tremendous opportunity to help scale and build an already successful organization and to dramatically improve the health and livelihoods of many millions of low-income consumers. This position is based in East Africa and will require travel in the region, and at times, internationally.
