For more than twenty years, this private, independent organization has been committed to sharing experience and best practices among foundations throughout Europe, in order to promote their development. A unique observation point for the world of philanthropy, it is now growing rapidly and has several hundred member structures, 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 legal expert represents an exceptional opportunity to develop in-depth legal and tax knowledge of the field of foundations and, more broadly, of the social economy (SSE). The aim is to help build a new range of services in this field, for the benefit of public-interest organizations with a wide variety of identities and sectors of activity (culture/heritage, research, education, health, etc.), and to contribute to the organization's advocacy strategy with government bodies.

Reporting to the Head of Legal and Public Affairs, your role is twofold. On the one hand, you will be responsible for providing legal support to member organizations. To this end, you will monitor the legal, tax, accounting and administrative aspects affecting the life of foundations, and draft the content and legal publications made available to them by this organization. In addition, you will deploy the organization's advocacy strategy by keeping a political watch on the foundation sector, identifying emerging needs and new trends, and drafting proposals for amendments.

With a Master's degree in law, you have a first successful experience, ideally as a lawyer for an SSE organization. With strong drafting 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.
