Friends of the Earth International is looking for an:

International Fundraising Officer

Amsterdam-based or Remote

0.8 FTE (30 hours per week)

Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) is the world’s largest grassroots environmental federation with more than 70 autonomous member groups around the world. FoEI aims to ensure that the struggles and experiences of local communities – especially those most affected by unsustainable development – are brought to bear on policies and practices at national and international levels. We focus on climate justice and energy, forests and biodiversity, food sovereignty, economic justice, gender justice and environmental human rights defenders. Our vision is of a peaceful and sustainable world based on societies living in harmony with nature.

FoEI’s decentralised and democratic structure allows all member groups to participate in decision-making. We are governed by our member groups who come together every two years to vote on issues facing the federation. A small International Secretariat (IS) in Amsterdam and a team of global staff support the member groups, campaigns, programs, and other activities of the federation through fundraising, campaign coordination, trainings, communications, and information management. 

FoEI is seeking an International Fundraising Officer (80% FTE – 30 hours per week) to join our small fundraising team. The fundraising team is part of the International Secretariat and works collaboratively with staff and member groups across the globe to raise over €2.5 million annually. This position reports to FoEI's International Fundraising Coordinator (based in Amsterdam) and can be based in any country where FoEI has a member group, including at the International Secretariat office in Amsterdam.

FoEI’s fundraising approach aligns with its mission and values, which means that FoEI does not accept donations from corporations. In 2026, FoEI’s funding will come primarily from private foundations, the EU, and membership fees. Within the context of a challenging funding landscape, particularly cuts to development aid budgets, over the coming years our aim is to continue diversifying funding streams and substantially increase support from private foundations and other donors. This will provide long-term stability for the federation and enable its programs and regions to rise to the challenge posed by the multiple systemic crises we face.

RESPONSIBILITIES

As part of the fundraising team, the International Fundraising Officer will implement a comprehensive and strategic fundraising plan aligned with FoEI's mission and vision, in collaboration with the International Coordinator, other secretariat staff, Executive Committee (board), International Program Coordinators and Regional Facilitators. Key responsibilities include:

· Prospect research:

• Research, identify and monitor prospective funding opportunities and keep donor records up-to-date.

• Regular sharing of funding opportunities with member groups.

· Fundraising materials, grant proposals and reports:

• Position FoEI to anticipate and respond to prospective funding opportunities

• Lead in the development of fundraising materials, including case studies, concept notes, proposals and reports – collaboratively with FoEI teams, member groups, regional structures, and allies.

• Work with proposal teams to craft strong results frameworks and/or impact narratives and indicators to enable high quality and efficient reporting across projects.

· Donor Relationship Management

• Develop bespoke cultivation plans for key donors.

• Cultivate and deepen donor relationships through regular communication and networking.

• Plan and deliver pitches to new and prospective donors. As necessary, support FoEI staff and representatives in engagement with funders including attendance at meetings and events.

· Other tasks

• Provide input on fundraising related external communication such as the website, social media and publications.

• Other related tasks as needed and in coordination with the Fundraising Coordinator.

QUALIFICATIONS/EXPERIENCE

• At least 3-5 years of proven experience working across the full life cycle of fundraising from prospecting, proposal development, donor relationship management, grant management and reporting.

• Proven track record successfully raising six-figure+ grants from philanthropic foundations and donors, particularly in the US, UK and Europe.  

• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, particularly the ability to process large amounts of information quickly and succinctly.

• Ability to work within and navigate a complex and decentralised environment with different cultures, languages and skill-sets.

• Ability to work with and support numerous projects and teams concurrently, working both independently and as part of globally distributed teams.

• Experience working on environmental and social justice issues and a strong affinity with FoEI's vision, mission, and values.

• English fluency, both spoken and written; working knowledge of Spanish or French would be a plus.

DESIRED

• Direct experience participating in coalition-based proposal development and collaborative fundraising processes with NGO networks and social movements.

• Experience in fundraising from the EU/countries that provide development aid.

• Experience in developing and supporting implementation of PMEL systems, in particular supporting teams to build theories of change, results frameworks, and compelling objectives, indicators, and outcomes for proposed projects.

WHAT FoEI OFFERS

We offer an opportunity to contribute to a better world and work for an inspiring international and culturally diverse network. Salaries are competitive with comparable nonprofit positions and based on experience and qualifications. Salary and benefits packages vary by location and are aligned with the compensation scale and policies of the host FoE group in which the position will be based, adjusted for the percentage of time worked. As a reference for a Netherlands-based position, the salary range at 100% (37.5 hours per week) will be between € 4720 and € 5158 monthly and requires compulsory participation in a collective pension arrangement.

An initial 1-year contract will be offered, to be renewed upon a positive performance evaluation.

Who We're Looking For:

• Someone with experience in managing projects or working with the public (this could be in health, social care, or with charities/community groups).
• Someone who is good at engaging with a diverse range of people.

About the Team:

This role is part of a larger Volunteering for Health team that works across the wider area (Herts & West Essex). You will be supported by a Programme Lead and work alongside other Programme Coordinators based in different towns like Hertford, Hatfield, and Watford.

Location: Remote working with travel as needed and appropriate time at Stonyhurst, Clitheroe, Lancashire to deliver the requirements of the role.

Stonyhurst College, the UK’s leading Catholic co-educational boarding and day school for pupils aged 3-18, is seeking a high value fundraising expert to design and deliver a high-performing philanthropic programme to ensure long-term sustainability.

Stonyhurst is the oldest continuously existing Jesuit school in the world – founded in 1593 in France, the College moved to its present site in Lancashire’s Ribble Valley near the market town of Clitheroe in 1794. As well as encouraging pupils to achieve their academic potential, the school works to develop well-rounded, competent future adults who can help change the world for others.

Working across the site and the wider community, the Director of Fundraising will lead on the development and delivery of a multi-year fundraising strategy aligned with the College’s long-term vision and priorities, to help secure transformational giving for Stonyhurst. The role will be responsible for increasing income growth across capital, bursary, endowment and unrestricted giving, with a strong focus on major gifts and sustainable donor relationships, as well as personally managing a portfolio of high-value donors and prospects, and cultivating and stewarding six, seven and eight-figure gifts.

The role will involve some travel nationally and internationally to engage supporters and prospects, and the post-holder will be expected to act as ambassador for Stonyhurst, championing their mission and values.

This is a particularly exciting time to be joining Stonyhurst, with a new strategic plan committed to the highest quality of Jesuit formation and the continuous development of the school’s historic estate over the coming years.

The ideal candidate will be a strategic thinker, with a track record in building relationships with alumni, partners, stakeholders and donors, and in shaping and implementing effective fundraising strategies to drive income growth. With a strong background in high-value fundraising, they will have personally led the cultivation, solicitation and stewardship of high-value donors. Excellent research and analytical skills will be a must, combined with honed interpersonal skills and the proven ability to establish and maintain good relationships with a diverse range of people. Finally, candidates will have an affinity with private education and with the mission and purpose of Stonyhurst.

This role offers a rare opportunity to work in a beautiful setting, based in 1,000 acres of stunning countryside and to join a rich educational tradition that is five centuries old, spanning the globe.
