Fundraising Associate (Voluntary Position)

Emergency Nutrition Network (ENN) is recognised for its work to reduce undernutrition globally. We enhance the effectiveness of nutrition policy and programming by improving knowledge, stimulating learning, connecting key actors and building evidence. We are passionate about being network-driven, independent and evidence-based. Our vision is that every individual caught up in a nutritional emergency, or suffering from malnutrition anywhere in the world, gets the most effective help possible. Through our work and collaborations, we support agencies and individuals to implement evidence-based nutrition programming, predominantly in low- and middle-income countries and in fragile and conflict-affected states.

ENN receives funding from governments, UN agencies, private foundations through grants and agreements, as well as contributions from partners, but needs to expand its funding base. To do this we would like to open funding potential from the private and corporate sectors, new foundations and other funders that may have an interest in working to improve nutrition for people in emergency and high malnutrition contexts. 

The work of this role will involve identifying potential funding sources, developing relationships and helping to finesse opportunities that can match ENN with potential funders.  This will be closely supported by the CEO and technical team. We are looking for someone with experience in the private or corporate sector, who would enjoy the challenge of working with a charity to raise funds to provide support for projects and practitioners working in difficult and resource poor situations to treat and prevent malnutrition.
