Jobbeschreibung

About Street Child Germany:

Street Child Germany e.V. is a German charity organization that is part of the international Street Child network, committed to ensuring every child has access to education in safe and supportive environments. We focus on empowering local partners and communities in some of the world’s most vulnerable settings. Our German team is small, mission‑driven, and works collaboratively across borders, attracting support from institutional, philanthropic, corporate and private sources.

The Role:

We are looking for a highly motivated and hands‑on Grants Manager to strengthen our team at a critical time in the organization’s development. Reporting to the Country Manager, and in close coordination with our global fundraising colleagues and Street Child network partners, the Grants Manager will lead the end‑to‑end grants process, from prospect research and relationship management to proposal development, budgeting, reporting and compliance. As we are a small team, you will also contribute to other fundraising activities as needed.

This is a key opportunity for a dynamic professional with strong fundraising experience, ready to grow with the organization and help scale our impact in Germany and ultimately in our project countries by driving sustainable income growth across diverse channels.

Key Responsibilities:

• Implement Street Child Germany’s fundraising strategy, in partnership with the Country Manager and Street Child’s international network.
• Plan, implement and further develop the German fundraising channels with a strong focus on grants from foundations, but also institutions and corporates.
• Carry out funder and market research, communicate with funders, and prepare funding applications, budgets and reports.
• Manage the grants pipeline and maintain accurate records.
• Coordinate proposal development across programmes and finance, ensuring high‑quality, timely submissions.
• Ensure donor compliance, maintain a reporting calendar and donor reporting for your grants and projects, which are implemented by our local partner organisations.

Your profile:

• Bachelor’s, Master’s or other relevant qualifications.
• At least three years of professional experience in a comparable position.
• Relevant experience in fundraising and working with foundations and/or other funders.
• Ideally, you have a personal network in the field of fundraising and development cooperation.
• The ability to work remotely with a team, as well as excellent written and oral communication in German and English are required.
• Credibility, personal responsibility, a high level of energy and willingness to travel complete your profile.

What We Offer:

• A meaningful and autonomous role in a globally recognised organisation that has grown fast in recent years.
• High ownership and plenty of scope to shape ideas and solutions within a young, ambitious organisation.
• A team office in Munich is available, while also offering flexibility to work remotely. Candidates based in other locations are welcome, too.
• The chance to help shape the structure and growth of Street Child Germany.
• Full‑time employment (possibly at least 80 %) with a contract limited to one year with the prospect of permanent employment, start date as soon as possible (or by agreement).
• A committed and experienced board, and access to an international network of like‑minded colleagues.

Diversity and Inclusion:

Street Child Germany is committed to building a diverse and inclusive organisation. We welcome applications from all qualified individuals regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ethnicity, religion, disability status or background.

Safeguarding:

Street Child is committed to safeguarding and protection of the communities we serve, our partners, our volunteers and our staff. All offers of employment will be subject to satisfactory references and appropriate background checks, including a Criminal Records check. Street Child also participates in the Inter‑Agency Misconduct Disclosure Scheme.
