About FILE
The Foundation for International Law for the Environment (FILE) is a not-for-profit philanthropic organisation working to accelerate legal action on climate change.
Through grant-making and in-house legal expertise, we empower our partners to deliver strategic, innovative legal interventions and we support lawyers in their own countries to bring their own cases.
Legal action can unlock the systemic changes in finance, policy and social systems needed to protect all of us from climate change. The power of the law is both direct (changing policy and practice) and indirect (signalling the wider shifts taking place across these systems).
FILE is a ‘regrantor’ - this means we do not bring legal action in our own name. We receive grants from our philanthropic donors (a small group of like-minded climate foundations) and make onwards grants to partners who align with FILE’s charitable aims and purposes. We do not seek to make any profit from our activities either in a relevant financial year or in the longer term.
The Role
This exciting new role will have primary leadership of FILE’s regional strategy within Europe. It is a rare opportunity for an experienced, knowledgeable strategist and leaders to apply their understanding of how civil society can drive impact on climate, nature, and justice through legal and associated narrative and movement strategies in Europe.
This will include representing FILE at a senior level with funders, partners and our peer re-grantors, as well as developing and maintaining relationships with FILE’s European grantees.
It is a key strategic role within FILE, sitting alongside our other Regional Directors, reporting to FILE’s Director of Program Strategy, and with key relationships with other senior members of the Strategy team and other FILE departments.
FILE’s work in Europe is focused on driving governments’ ambition on, as well as holding corporations accountable for their major contributions to, the interconnected crises of climate, nature, and environmental justice. Given Europe’s position as a major economy, with global supply chains, there are strong connections between our work in Europe and our partners and communities in the Global South.
Key Responsibilities
Each of these is conducted in close collaboration with relevant colleagues across FILE’s strategy teams, as well as FILE’s Research, Impact, and Learning, Grant Management, and Philanthropic Partnerships teams:
- Leading development and implementation of FILE’s Europe strategy, supporting civil society to build for legal, narrative, and movement-building strategies to address the climate and nature crises and in pursuit of environmental justice
- This includes integrating climate, nature, and justice priorities appropriately into FILE’s Europe strategy - including a focus on finance, corporate accountability and supply chains, and driving governmental ambition
- Identifying new grantees, shaping grant-making priorities, and stewarding grantees through the grant-making process, as well as supporting existing grantees including with respect to issues of safety, security, and resilience
- Supporting the expansion of the community of practitioners to reinforce legal capacity, generating innovation and learning, proactively influencing global legal action and sharing knowledge of impact and learning
- Convening meetings of strategic partners to discuss key European priorities
- Performing a leadership role within philanthropy to deepen the understanding of philanthropy of strategic priorities for addressing the climate, nature, and justice crises in Europe in a just and equitable manner
Key Outcomes
- FILE has a well-considered Europe strategy that reflects our organisational climate, nature, and justice priorities, including a focus on legal, narrative and movement-building approaches
- FILE colleagues and external partners have a trusted thought partner and collaborator on implementing FILE’s strategies in Europe
- FILE’s grant-making in Europe is supported and guided with cutting-edge strategic expertise
- High quality convening(s) of European civil society and relevant legal practitioners and peers, to catalyse innovation and strengthen connectivity
- An engaged group of funders, ready to deepen their support for our partners’ work in Europe
