You'll own grant investigations and help manage a portfolio of grants, evaluating the best funding opportunities and helping shape new ones. You will answer hard questions and make funding recommendations by combining rigorous evidence review, cost-effectiveness modeling, grantee relationships, and thoughtful judgment.

Responsibilities include: - Investigating and recommending grants. - Managing a portfolio of grants. - Analyzing interventions (e.g., vaccine demand generation, vitamin A supplementation, seasonal malaria chemoprevention). - Building cost-effectiveness models to estimate the costs and benefits of a particular intervention. - Building relationships relevant to our work. - Publishing reports and blog posts on our website. Qualifications - 3-5 years of professional experience in similar or closely-related roles. - Quantitatively-oriented advanced degrees preferred, but not required. - Demonstrated ability to use empirical tools to make rigorous, evidence-based decisions.
