Background/NRGI Summary:For the one billion impoverished people living in resource-rich countries, the oil, gas and mining sectors have failed to deliver on the promise of a better quality of life. Massive corruption, the climate crisis, and the coronavirus pandemic threaten to entrench these deep inequalities. The Natural Resource Governance Institute (NRGI) works to secure a future where countries rich in oil, gas and minerals achieve sustainable, inclusive development. With the launch of our new 2020-2025 Global Strategy, our staff of country and issue experts, lawyers, economists and governance specialists will leverage our 15+ years of experience to lift countries out of poverty by contributing evidence-based knowledge, building capacities and alliances, and seizing reform opportunities during moments of political openness. 

NRGI’s international staff of more than 90 work in over 15 countries around the world. With an annual budget of roughly $15 million, NRGI benefits from the support of major foundations and governmental funders — including the Open Society Foundations, William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Ford Foundation, Luminate, Norwegian Agency for Development Cooperation, Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO), and German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), among others.

In addition, s/he will play a key role in prospect research to help us to identify new prospects and actively monitor new opportunities. S/he will also support the development and management of department-wide record-keeping and tracking systems to ensure that we meet funder accountability requirements effectively. 

The ideal candidate will be committed to NRGI’s mission and vision. Prior experience working within a team producing complex bids to institutional funders for international advocacy organizations is highly desirable. Reporting to the Director of Fundraising, s/he will have a strong hands-on orientation. This is an exciting opportunity for the right candidate to provide vital support to a growing team, build the funding pipeline and strengthen compliance mechanisms that will ensure NRGI’s long-term sustainability.

We are dedicated and committed to achieving the most for our donors and our researchers.  And we are involved – constantly looking for new ways to engage and improve. We are inspired by our work and we will be looking for this in you too.

What you can bring to the role

You will have sound experience of working in a fundraising position in a charity. You will also have experience of successfully securing income from voluntary sources including individuals and companies.

You will be able to support the delivery and growth of our fundraising programme with the aim of developing and maintaining long-lasting, mutually beneficial relationships with these supporters to meet and exceed annual income targets.
