Dublin, Dublin City, Ireland Balmer Dawson Executive Search Full time
About Us

Balmer Dawson Executive Search is delighted to partner with Mellon Educate in their search for a highly skilled Grant Writer. Mellon Educate is an Irish-based African development charity that has been making a significant impact in the lives of thousands of people in Africa.

The charity was founded by Niall Mellon in 2002 and has since built houses for over 250,000 homeless people in South Africa's townships. In 2013, the charity re-doubled its commitments to those less fortunate in Africa, pledging a 10-year education development programme to provide better education to more than 100,000 African children.

The successful candidate will work closely with colleagues to develop and implement Mellon Educate's strategic approach to funding against agreed key performance indicators. This role requires an enthusiastic self-starter, with good knowledge of educational grant-writing, exceptional persuasive writing and organisational skills, and a good understanding of the South African education system.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Responsible for identifying, preparing, producing and submitting grant applications and funding proposals.
  • Writing and editing high-quality content for competitive proposal processes and other fundraising materials as required.
  • Researching and exploring new grant and funding opportunities which support Mellon Educate's current strategic objectives.
  • Gathering, analysing and synthesizing proposal inputs and co-ordinating and reviewing content from all contributors.
