The Global Environment Facility (GEF) Partnership Manager leads the internal planning and external strategic engagement of The Nature Conservancy with targeted multi- and bi-lateral organizations, including and especially GEF. The GEF Partnership Manager is responsible for the identification, cultivation, and alignment of public funding opportunities through internal TNC engagement, meetings, trips, and other activities. They are responsible for managing outreach to and engagement with the GEF through collaboration with conservation, government relations, and other internal TNC staff, including operations support team members.

They will use and update the Conservancy's donor database to provide partner and donor information, produce reports, perform analysis, and track and cultivate public partners. They will also attend public meetings with GEF members and staff, and other bilaterals and multilaterals, follow GEF meetings, reports and evaluations, and support public events and engagement strategies with GEF. The Partnership Manager understands the complexity of engaging with and influencing public partners and the variety of assets, knowledge products, reports and talking points that may be used to develop funding opportunities. They will provide support and guidance to teams developing proposals. They may also seek matching gift opportunities and help to develop materials for private donors to leverage the impact of public investment and co-invest in GEF projects and strategies for TNC.
