October 8, 2021

Job Title: Grants Manager

Company: EarthEnable, Inc.

Reports to: CEO

Location: Kigali, Rwanda, with time spent traveling to rural areas

Timeframe: 1 year renewable

Salary: 1 – 2.5 million Rwf/month gross (approx. 680,000 – 1,685,000

Rwf/month net), depending on experience/abilities (see below)

How to Apply: Fill out the form here.

Who We Are
At EarthEnable, we believe that our clients deserve our very best, that morning high-fives are the best way to start the day, and that the best ideas can come from any part of the company. We celebrate each other’s wins, learn from our setbacks, and are deeply proud of the impact we make every day. We believe that a clean, dust-free floor means more than living in a healthy home. It means pride and dignity in the place our customers treasure most: their homes. Being a part of our team means more than building floors: it means building an organization and building a better future for rural families.

What We Do
EarthEnable is transforming the way people live, by making homes healthier for families across rural Rwanda and Uganda. 62% of Rwandans and Ugandans live in homes with dirt floors which are dusty, unsanitary, and fertile breeding grounds for parasites and germs. While replacing a dirt floor with concrete has significant health benefits (e.g. reducing diarrhea by 50% and parasitic infections by 80%), concrete is unaffordable for many who need it.

EarthEnable addresses this pressing and ubiquitous problem by selling high-quality, earthen floors that are 80% cheaper than concrete with 96% less carbon emissions. Our earthen floors are composed of natural materials (gravel, clay, sand, and laterite) and sealed using a proprietary drying oil that makes them waterproof, strong, and polished. EarthEnable trains and certifies micro-franchisees who run their own businesses selling and installing the floors in their communities. EarthEnable has already helped 50,000 people to live on clean, beautiful floors across Rwanda and Uganda, and has big plans to scale across East Africa and beyond in the coming years.

About the Role
EarthEnable’s Grants Manager will lead the Grants and Fundraising Team, working directly with the CEO to help EarthEnable shape the future of rural housing and health. He or she will compose grant applications, advise and support the Executive team and CEO in developing a fundraising strategy, develop and execute fundraising campaigns, liaise with internal and external stakeholders, report outcomes to donors, and upskill other employees in grant writing and reporting. The Grants Manager will also get the chance to work on special projects depending on their interests. The successful candidate will be an ambitious, hard-working, and passionate individual who possesses a strong sense of social mission, thrives in a fast-paced, start-up environment, excels at working autonomously, and demonstrates an unparalleled ability to multi-task while being detail-oriented. Specific responsibilities of the role will include:

Development and Fundraising:

Continuously exploring and evaluating the funding landscape, especially by conducting online research to find grant opportunities
Opportunistically applying for funding opportunities including writing proposals and budgets
Frequently visiting the field operations to accurately and effectively communicate our impact

Supporting and training Executive Assistant in administrative tasks such as CEO scheduling, email management, event planning, flight bookings, etc.
Assisting on special projects to improve the organization, efficiency, and fundraising potential of the company as needed

Qualifications:

Strong written and verbal communications skills
Demonstrated experience with writing

Work experience, especially experience working in development, soliciting donations from funders and/or grant management, is highly desired
Experience with financial reporting, budgeting, Salesforce, and/or Excel would be an added advantage

Already living in or desire to live and work in East Africa; experience living and working in East Africa or other developing countries strongly preferred
Detail-oriented and able to multitask
Positive attitude, self-starter, entrepreneurial spirit, sense of humor, and willingness to learn new things
Commitment to excellence and outstanding work ethic
Resourcefulness and creative problem solving
Strong alignment with EarthEnable’s values:
Take pride in our impact on health. Work passionately to change the way people live.
Set the bar for customer care. Exceed their expectations every step of the way.
Work hard and work together to achieve our most ambitious goals and dreams.
Be resourceful and responsible with money; our impact depends on it.
Treat everyone with fairness, empathy, and concern with which we expect to be treated.
Trust each other to have the humility to support and the vulnerability to be supported.

Salary

Salary will be determined based on a candidate’s abilities, according to our competency matrix. For example, a candidate who still needs significant guidance in grant application writing would be offered a salary of around 1 million Rwf/month (gross), whereas a candidate who can write grant applications completely independently with no edits needed from the CEO would be eligible to receive a salary of 2.5 million/month. There is room for salary increases as a successful candidate improves their competency.
