Program Administrative Assistant

Economic Advancement Program, London

We’re looking for an accomplished administrator to be responsible for performing skilled administrative support to our Economic Advancement Program.

The team utilises Altiva-Salesforce as an essential investment tool to track deal flow, investee interactions, and to increase transparency and team communication. Additionally, team members use Chatter to communicate to the entire team, or other team members regarding general matters, sectors, and regions. As such, we’ll need you to ensure that the system remains up-to-date and organised, so that it continues to be a helpful and essential tool for all team members.

The Economic Advancement Program (EAP) aims at the expansive goal of economic advancement in which it seeks to influence systemic change on regions, industries, value-chains and capital flows in ways that contribute to building open and socially just societies.

It aims to achieve this by deploying a suite of tools, including: investment capital, policy work, civic and community strengthening, and stakeholder engagement. It will deploy these tools individually or in concert depending on local need and context.

If successful, you will sit within the Soros Economic Development Fund investment team, which comprises the largest capital pool within EAP.

Closing date: 9 April 2017.

We are strengthened by the diversity of our colleagues across the Open Society Foundations, and we welcome and actively seek applications from people of all cultures, backgrounds, and experiences.
