CULTURE/HERITAGE

Head office advocacy officer - closed

For over twenty years, this private, independent organization has been promoting the sharing of experience and best practice among foundations on a European scale, with the aim of fostering their development. Now boasting several hundred members, it is convinced that it is from their diversity that the sector draws its profound wealth and capacity to contribute, both economically and socially.

The position of Advocacy Officer represents an opportunity to oversee the running of networks and working groups concerned with legal and political developments in the foundation sector, which is currently expanding rapidly and facing major development challenges, and to contribute to the organization's advocacy strategy vis-à-vis government bodies.

Reporting to the Head of Legal and Public Affairs, your role is twofold. On the one hand, you oversee the construction of roadmaps and group work streams on technical and political subjects that are at the heart of the foundation sector. To this end, you will draw up agendas and, following discussions, draft deliverables, reports and studies. You will also provide support for the organization's public affairs activities. To this end, you monitor parliamentary debates to identify developments in the sector, which you are able to report on in written or oral form.

With a Master's degree in law or public affairs, you have a first successful experience in advocacy within a federation, SSE structure, or as a parliamentary attaché within an institutional organization. With strong writing skills, your ability to analyze and summarize is recognized by your peers. Autonomous and versatile, you enjoy working on a variety of subjects, especially in a small organization where team spirit and good manners are essential.
