Fundraiser and Impact Evaluator

We are looking for an experienced fundraiser to help us diversify our income stream and to ensure we are applying to rights trusts and grant bodies to further our work.

The ideal candidate for this role brings together experience in the non-profit sector with financial skills. An understanding of funding-dependent projects and donor relations are key to perform well as a fundraiser. In addition to that budget experience and financial planning are important skills for this role. Another aspect of this role is the monitoring and evaluation responsibility: we want this person to have some experience in qualitative and quantitative measurement and data visualization for the impact of Civil Society work. Ideally, we are looking for a candidate who is already familiar with the donor landscape for the areas of work BLAM is involved in. An active interest in Black history, the Black global diaspora experience and politics as well as anti-racism is what drives us at BLAM.

The fundraiser will be acquiring new funding opportunities for BLAM’s running and future projects, communicating with potential and existing donors, writing funding applications and reporting on running and implemented projects to donors which includes monitoring, evaluation and impact measurement as well. We are looking for an experienced candidate who can diversify BLAM’s income sources and build financial sustainability for BLAM for the coming years in order to grow our work.
