About Internews
Internews works globally to ensure people everywhere can access trusted, quality information that empowers participation, accountability, and healthier, more informed communities. For more than 35 years, in over 100 countries, we have strengthened local media, supported civil society, and helped millions of people access crucial information across issues such as health, governance, conflict, and the environment.
We are an international nonprofit with administrative hubs in California, Washington DC, London, and Paris. Our teams represent a wide mix of backgrounds, identities, cultures, and lived experiences. We actively foster an environment rooted in dignity, belonging, justice, and flexibility.
About the Role
We are seeking a high-performing, experienced, and self-directed compliance professional to provide maternity cover within the Grants, Contracts & Compliance (GCC) department.
This role requires someone who operates with excellence, independence, and sound judgement from day one—a person who is confident navigating complex donor rules, shaping risk‑mitigation strategies, and leading award management processes without needing extensive onboarding.

You will oversee the full lifecycle of European donor‑funded awards, ensuring rigorous contractual and regulatory compliance across Internews. Working closely with colleagues across Programmes, Finance, and Global Development, you will help maintain a culture where doing things right is prioritised over shortcuts.

· Develop and maintain training materials and guidelines for at least one major donor; provide expert compliance guidance across GCC.
· Deliver inductions and training for new and junior GCC staff.
· Set up and maintain complete and up‑to‑date award records in line with donor and Internews requirements.
Development
· At proposal stage, review and approve teaming agreements and NDAs with bid partners.
· Review and approve donor budget submissions, ensuring accuracy, consistency, compliance, and adequacy.
· Coordinate pre‑award due diligence for prospective donors.
· Review and negotiate donor agreements and modifications, managing associated risks.
· Establish and maintain proposal, award, and contract records within the award management system, including significant data entry.
Procurement Management
· Advise staff on procurement requirements and maintain internal records for procurements under awards.
· Support development of compliant procurement plans.
· Lead and administer higher‑value procurements, including negotiating contractor terms.
· Draft and execute sub‑contracts and amendments in full compliance with donor and Internews policies.
· Troubleshoot contractual issues, prepare termination notices, and manage related risks.
· Prepare procurement documentation for audits and serve as point of contact for procurement audit processes.
· In all duties, uphold Internews’ Core Values and demonstrate commitment to fostering a culture of Belonging, Dignity, and Justice.
SUPERVISORY RESPONSIBILITIES
· Line‑manage GCC staff when assigned.
· Deputise for the Director of GCC as required.
