At the Danish Refugee Council (DRC), our partnerships with leading International and Danish foundations are growing in numbers and size, and we have ambitions to grow this area further in particular in relation to international foundations. For our Global Foundations team, we are therefore now looking for a Senior Partnership Advisor - International Foundations who can scope, develop and drive these crucial partnerships.

Who are we?

While most funds are raised at country and regional level, the Global Foundations team is accountable for ensuring that DRC has a centralised and harmonised approach to addressing foundation donors and keeping an overview of funding opportunities. The team currently consists of 3 staff mainly focused on Danish Foundations and we are therefore looking to expand the team to also cover foundations outside of Denmark.Together with the rest of the Partnerships, Engagement and Fundraising Division (PEF), the Global Foundations team is working to increase DRC’s capacity and ambition to expand, deepen, and strengthen partnerships and fundraising activities with donors. PEF is responsible for DRC’s global strategic partnerships and engagement with institutional donors (ID), global foundations, and private contributors at a global level. The division is part of the DRC HQ department for Partnerships, Advocacy & External Relations (PAER).

Your overall responsibility will be to strengthen DRC’s capacity to maintain and grow relationships and strengthen fundraising efforts with International Foundations.

The portfolio of the selected candidate will be more closely defined once a planned mapped exercise has been conducted, looking also at the specific expertise and the preferred duty station of the selected candidate.

You will be expected to take the lead in fundraising processes at all stages, from mapping and scoping opportunities, as well as strategic pre-positioning, through proposal development to kick-off of secured grants.
