Executive Director

Climate Resilience Funder Collaborative • Full-time • Remote (United States) • 7h ago

Summary

The Climate Resilience Funder Collaborative (the Collaborative) is a growing philanthropic partnership working to align funders and strengthen and coordinate the resilience field to accelerate equitable climate resilience solutions across the United States. With three years of shared learning and grantmaking among six engaged funders, the Collaborative is now ready to evolve from an emerging initiative into a high-impact philanthropic initiative.

The inaugural Executive Director will lead this evolution, working closely with participating funders to 1) build the foundations for a strong effort – including setting strategy and developing a governance framework; 2) deepen efforts to grow the collaborative, including align and mobilize philanthropic capital; and 3) serve as a field anchor and coordinator, to support stronger field coordination and learning. They will deepen relationships within the climate resilience ecosystem (including many other collaboratives underway), articulate the Collaborative’s value to funders and field partners to foster and expand engagement, and establish an operations infrastructure.

The ideal candidate will be a strategic, collaborative, and entrepreneurial leader with a track record of building coalitions and organizations from the ground up, experience facilitating effective coordination both structurally and relationally, knowledge of U.S. climate resilience and adaptation, and strong philanthropic and cross-sector relationships. This is a unique opportunity to shape an emerging national philanthropic platform and help unlock greater collective action and investment in climate resilience.

The Collaborative will initially be fiscally sponsored by Assets Under Movement (AUM+), formerly known as Amalgamated Foundation. This is a remote role based in the United States. The salary range for this role is $260,000 - $310,000.
