The Manager, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Impact (MEI) is responsible for leading and coordinating Global Greengrants' approach to understanding the progress and impact of our collective work, ensuring that monitoring and evaluation efforts are movement-centered, evidence-based, and aligned with our strategic priorities. This role is central to embedding systems and practices that enable Global Greengrants to reflect, adapt, and grow in service of environmental justice movements worldwide. The Manager, MEI will be a critical resource to the Vice President of Programs by guiding strategic learning initiatives, promoting cross-team collaboration, and ensuring that evaluation processes are both rigorous and accessible. Their work involves a balance of independent leadership and close partnership with teams and advisors to develop systems that reflect our values, meet donor and movement expectations, and support meaningful knowledge-sharing. In the current structure, the Manager, MEI, is line managed by the Vice President of Programs. The MEI Manager supports cross-functional collaboration, programmatic data use, and continuous improvement of internal learning and accountability practices. They will help lead and monitor organization-wide initiatives that enhance our collective ability to tell the story of our work, assess impact, and ensure that our processes remain relevant, inclusive, and responsive to the priorities of the communities we serve.

Global Greengrants Fund supports grassroots groups and civil society organisations around the world working to address environmental and social justice in over 160 countries. Global Greengrants applies a participatory and decentralised model in making grants to grassroots groups through regional and thematic boards of advisors, global partner networks, and partner funds, to support grassroots environmental and social justice action. Global Greengrants Fund believes solutions to environmental harm and social injustice come from people whose lives are most impacted. Every day, our global network of people on the frontlines and donors comes together to support communities to protect their ways of life and our planet. Because when local people have a say in the health of their food, water, and resources, they are forces for change. Global Greengrants Fund comprises two organisations located in the USA, Global Greengrants Fund Inc. (established in 1993), and Global Greengrants Fund UK (established in 2012). The two organisations work closely together with a shared grantmaking programme and strategic collaboration at the senior leadership level. In 2025, Global Greengrants Fund is amid a strategic journey in which we collectively centre our values, including diversity, equity, and inclusion and organisational care in our work, and to rediscover our identity and potential after 30 years of work. The Manager, Monitoring, Evaluation, and Impact (MEI) needs to understand the challenges and opportunities that come with these transformations and be able to remain flexible, steady, and adaptable.
