Job alert! The VGP Foundation is looking for a Foundation Manager

An opportunity to make a real difference

The VGP Foundation is looking for an enthusiastic, idealistic and socially committed person who wants to make a positive difference in the world. We are not necessarily looking for someone with extensive experience in managing a foundation. We are looking for someone with the right character, values and ambitions. Someone who cares deeply about nature, biodiversity, people and society. Someone who is curious about the world, enjoys meeting people and believes that personal commitment can make a genuine difference.

Working closely with the Foundation’s founder, you will help develop its activities, identify worthwhile projects, build relationships with partner organisations and follow initiatives through to implementation.

The position offers opportunities for international travel, including to Africa, and for working with inspiring organisations involved in nature conservation, education and social development.

We imagine someone with approximately three to eight years of professional experience, although personality, motivation and personal commitment matter more to us than a particular degree or career path. You should be independent, entrepreneurial, well organised and willing to take responsibility. Above all, you should combine idealism with common sense and enthusiasm with sound judgment.

This is not a conventional corporate career opportunity. It is a chance to help build an international foundation over the long term, working directly with its founder, with considerable responsibility and opportunities to grow alongside the organisation.

Location: Belgium, with international travel.
Remuneration: Appropriate to the philanthropic sector.

If you believe that success in life should be measured not only by what you achieve for yourself, but also by what you contribute to the world around you, we would love to hear from you. Please send your CV and motivation letter to info@vgp-foundation.eu.
