EA Animal Welfare Fund (AWF) is currently looking to hire additional guest fund managers.
AWF is one of the largest funding sources for small- and medium-sized animal welfare projects. In the last twelve months, the Animal Welfare Fund made more than $6.5 million worth of grants to high-impact organizations and talented individuals.
To allocate this funding effectively, we are looking for guest fund managers with careful judgment in the relevant subject areas and an interest in effective grantmaking.
As a guest fund manager, you will evaluate grant applications, proactively help new projects get off the ground (‘active grantmaking’), publish grant reports, and contribute to the fund’s strategy.
Terms of employment:

If you know of anyone who might be a good fit for this role, please forward this document to them and encourage them to apply. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to reach out to Karolina via [email protected]
Applications are open now until the 26th of November.
We look forward to hearing from you!

While doing so, you will interact with other intellectually curious, experienced, and welcoming fund managers, all of whom share a profound drive to make the biggest difference they can.
As a guest fund manager, your primary goal will be to increase the fund’s capacity to source and investigate more grant applications. Your responsibilities will include:
