About FILE
The Foundation for International Law for the Environment (FILE) was set up in 2018 to be the major philanthropic re-granter scaling up legal action globally to tackle the climate and the biodiversity crises.
We work as movement enablers, campaign strategists, and impact funders, using the law in pursuit of three interconnected system-level goals:
- Reducing net greenhouse gas emissions to protect the climate
- Safeguarding nature
- Delivering climate and environmental justice
We pursue these goals not just by supporting legal action directly. We believe in growing the strength of the climate and biodiversity legal movement globally, and in enabling people and movements to use legal action to shift narratives.
As movement enablers, campaign strategists, and impact funders, we at FILE do not ourselves bring litigation. As a regrantor, FILE is not an endowed foundation, but rather we engage in fundraising to secure resources to support our partners globally.
The Role
The Grants Coordinator will play a key role within the Grants Team, a growing team at FILE. This role will work closely with the Grants Managers and Heads of Grants across key FILE portfolios to ensure that programmes and partnerships are delivered at pace and to schedule. Whilst initially this is largely an administrative role, it is an opportunity to gain an insight in the workings of an international philanthropic organisation focused on systemic change through partnerships with a variety of outstanding legal strategists and NGO partners.
As Grants Coordinator, you ensure the quality of FILE’s grant-making processes and provide support to the Grants Managers and Heads of Grants during the entire life cycle of a grant. As well as working closely with the Grants Team, you will be working together with all the relevant stakeholders at FILE, i.e., grantee partners and our colleagues in finance, legal strategy, impact & learning and operations.
This is a unique opportunity to support world-leading non-profit partners in delivering strategic legal interventions to impact. We are looking for a candidate who is excited at the prospect of working for a dynamic and fast-growing organisation with a mission to solve the climate crisis.
Key Responsibilities
- Grant administration – support the internal processes of contracting, payment approvals and tracking financial disbursements. Lead on grantee communication regarding payments and reporting.
- Ensure timelines and the approval process for grants and contracts run to schedule, ensuring all relevant information is presented to senior FILE team colleagues and decisions are documented.
- Ensure grant data and documentation is up-to-date and filed appropriately, including input into FILE systems as required.
- Perform data capture and maintain database records. Support the management of FILE’s key grants database, including supporting development and revision of database processes, structure and workflows.
- Regular communication with applicants and grant holders, particularly when supporting the due diligence process for applicants.
- Collaborate with the Grants Manager on annual planning, grants development, in-life grants management, pipeline planning and partnership building with partners.
- Work up to managing and holding relationships with partners for a small number of grants.
- Performance & outcome monitoring – support the Grants Manager to effectively monitor the progress and outcomes of projects and grants together with the Legal Strategy and Impact and Learning teams. This will include the scheduling of reporting requirements, and supporting the evaluation, impact and learning processes.
- Support other portfolio teams if required and time allows.
Key Competencies
- Ability to work unsupervised, a motivated self-starter, with robust problem solving, administrative, multi-tasking skills and is good on follow-through.
- Excellent analytical and quantitative skills, with the ability to assimilate and digest large volumes of information.
- Strong attention to detail and strong organisational and project management skills, with the ability to manage workload effectively and to work with changing priorities and time pressures.
- Ability to occasionally adjust working hours to fit with multiple time zones as required.
- Strong written and communication skills. You will be able to present information in a compelling way through proposals, memos and PowerPoint presentations.
- Ability to communicate effectively with people from different cultures and backgrounds
- Desire to contribute to new ideas and ways of working to develop improved models, processes and use of technology in grant-making.
- Outstanding partnership management skills, with the ability to support and establish highly collaborative internal and external partnerships.
- Experience with databases/grant-management or CRM systems highly desirable
- Financial and budget management skills desirable but not necessary.
- Ability in French and/or Spanish desirable but not necessary.
