We recruite the position EU Partnership Manager

ActionAid International are looking for an EU Partnership Manager to join their team in Brussels on a 6 month, fixed-term contract basis with possibility of extension.

A consummate networker and influencer, you will strengthen ActionAids EU relationships, positioning and strategic engagement in order to grow our income, which will extend our influence and benefit our development and advocacy programmes. As EU Partnership Manager you will provide vision and strategic direction to ActionAid International to maximise our engagement with EU development cooperation agencies (DG DEVCO EuropeAid, DG NEAR, and EU Delegations).

With a comprehensive knowledge and understanding of the EU political environment and EU development funding policies, you will monitor and analyse EU funding trends, priorities, and policies and how they align with ActionAids strategic priorities, ensuring we are ahead of the game on forthcoming funding initiatives and activities. You will work within ActionAid International, alongside the EU Policy & Advocacy team, to develop a new global EU engagement and funding strategy. As a key ActionAid representative at relevant donor and civil society fora in Brussels you will cultivate strategic alliances with like‐minded NGOs and other parties, and you will also actively engage in the Concord HUB3 (promoting civil society and funding). Comfortable engaging with diverse stakeholders in a way that leads to increased impact for the organisation, you will spot and create opportunities to positively influence EU donor funding streams.

You will also advise and support ActionAid country members in the development of their strategy for engagement with EU Development Cooperation Agencies, keeping them abreast of EU funding opportunities, grant management rules, eligibility criteria, and compliance issues and regulations.

You will ensure there are effective systems in place to monitor performance against defined EU fundraising and grant management indicators, identifying risks and providing solutions. You will lead a small team to develop business processes, policies and operational guidelines to facilitate better business development prioritisation and management and accountability of EU funding and grant management within the organisation. You will oversee strong capacity building, communications, and learning mechanisms to strengthen Federation capabilities and skills in EU business development and grant management.

You will already have a proven track record of leading on an organisational funding strategy for an institutional donor and be able to demonstrate strong senior-level experience of raising significant funds from the EU. A natural leader and influencer, coach and mentor, you will be experienced in building the capacity of others when working with institutional donors (both your own team and stakeholders across ActionAid). You must be fluent in English and a second language would be an advantage, particularly French, Spanish or Portuguese. Most importantly, you will be at ease working in a multicultural environment and building relationships of trust with colleagues from different and a strong commitment to ActionAid Internationals vision, mission, and values.

If you have the expertise and management skills to make a significant difference to our organisation and have the right to work in the European Union, we would be delighted to hear from you. Please send your application and motivational letter by midnight Friday, 29 January 2021. Link to apply:
