This position reports to the Director of Membership and Programs and provides administrative support on programming, membership, and resource development activities. This position also supports the CEO by maintaining her calendar and assisting her in supporting the board of directors. This position is full time (40 hours per week) and remote. When it is safe to travel after the COVID-19 pandemic, this position requires domestic travel 6-8 times a year. We encourage people with lived experience of homelessness and/or housing instability to apply.

Membership

  • Maintain up-to-date and accurate member and revenue records to review with Director of Membership and Programs and Finance Manager regularly.
  • Work with Director of Membership and Programs to on-board new members, including processing payment, sending thank you letters, and updating database and website with member information.
  • Schedule member calls that include the CEO

Programs

We conduct 2 signature in-person events a year (during COVID-19 this has temporarily shifted to a virtual format), 1-2 webinars every month, and 1-2 smaller funder calls per month.

  • Add upcoming programs, webinar recordings, and programming resources to website in a timely fashion.
  • Manage registration for webinars and events, including providing registration support and managing registration revenue and fees when applicable.
  • Supporting back-end programming logistics, including providing live tech support during webinars, taking notes during calls/webinars, and tracking webinar attendance in our database.
  • Provide logistical support to Program Directors for in-person convenings, including assisting with finding meeting space, organizing catering, and assembling materials (such as name tags and meeting packets).

Resource Development

  • Maintain and manage a calendar to track grant application and report deadlines and regularly inform CEO and Director of Communications and Policy of grants workflow.
  • Keep ongoing prospect list of potential grantors.
  • File and execute grant agreements and other related paperwork.
  • Draft and track thank you notes for all grants and financial contributions.
  • Work with CEO and Finance Manager to accurately forecast and track all income.

Administration

  • Manage the CEO's calendar by scheduling meetings and calls with external partners and members.
  • Schedule board meetings and board committee calls.
  • Support CEO in preparation of board meeting packets, board meeting logistics, and communication with board members (4 times a year).

  • Must be detail-oriented, able to organize a lot of information, and produce work that is accurate, clear, and concise.
  • Excellent critical-thinking skills with an ability to use them with discretion and tact.
  • Able to learn quickly in a fast-paced environment and be able to prioritize and complete tasks in a timely fashion.
  • Ability to take initiative and work independently, while still being committed to teamwork and clear communication with colleagues.
  • Technically proficient with Microsoft Office Suite, including Word and Excel.
  • Based in and able to work in the United States. Given the remote nature of this position, coordinator must be able to maintain their own office and work schedule during core hours, which are currently between 10am – 4pm ET (with some flexibility for West Coast candidates). Candidates from all locations in the US are encouraged to apply.

Additional Qualifications:

  • Undergraduate degree or 2-5 years relevant work experience in an administrative role.

We joined Funders Together because we believe in the power of philanthropy to play a major role in ending homelessness, and we know we have much to learn from funders across the country.

-Christine Marge, Director of Housing and Financial Stability at United Way of Greater Los Angeles

I am thankful for the local partnerships here in the Pacific Northwest that we’ve been able to create and nurture thanks to the work of Funders Together. Having so many of the right players at the table makes our conversations – and all of our efforts – all the richer and more effective.

-David Wertheimer, Deputy Director at Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation

Very often a lack of jobs and money is not the cause of poverty, but the symptom. The cause may lie deeper in our failure to give our fellow citizens a fair chance to develop their own capacities, in a lack of education and training, in a lack of medical care and housing, in a lack of decent communities in which to live and bring up their children.

-President Lyndon B. Johnson, 1964 State of the Union Address

Funders Together has given me a platform to engage the other funders in my community. Our local funding community has improved greatly to support housing first models and align of resources towards ending homelessness.

-Leslie Strnisha, Vice President at Sisters of Charity Foundation of Cleveland

Our family foundation convenes local funders and key community stakeholders around strategies to end homelessness in Houston. Funders Together members have been invaluable mentors to us in this effort, traveling to our community to share their expertise and examples of best practices from around the nation.

-Nancy Frees Fountain, Managing Director at The Frees Foundation
