Company Description


At Porticus, we’re working towards a just and sustainable future where human dignity can flourish. Through our partnerships, in education, society, faith and climate we enable changemakers to create societies and systems that work for everyone. We strive to understand the complexities of the systems we seek to change, assessing where we can make the most impact and engaging the skills and knowledge of broad coalitions of local and global partners to tackle the root causes of problems. Porticus professionals develop and manage grants and programmes in more than 90 countries. Lasting solutions aren’t achieved quickly or lightly, but we believe that together we can make a fairer, more sustainable world a reality.


Job Description

Porticus is committed to an evidence-informed path to all its grant making while keeping a systems change lens for long-term investments as a way to achieve social change. Structured as a matrix organization, Porticus has thematic leads that support sectoral work and regional leads that support the contextualization and prioritization of sectoral work in the regions. The functioning of both these arms is supported by common central functional units, such as the Communication, People and Culture, Grants Operation and the 360* - which plays a key role in supporting Porticus as a strategic philanthropy, working in partnerships, with learning and evidence towards system change. ​


The Regional Grant Analyst (internally, Regional Analyst or RA) will work in tandem with this matrix structure and support Regional Teams (Regional Directors and Programme Managers) of Latin America and North America in developing and implementing Monitoring, Evaluation, and Learning (MEL) methods, in close alignment with the 360 Team´s values and practices. The RA will always support the 360 Team in communicating, training and implementing Porticus ways of working in the regions, making sure that Porticus philanthropic approaches, such as Meaningful Participation and GESI (Gender Equality and Social Inclusion) are being put into practice in our work on the ground. Occasional support to programs within sectors and strategic grant-making outside of sectors might also be requested. Through this, they will contribute to the high quality of Porticus’ strategic philanthropy and, ultimately, towards enabling lasting positive change in society.

Porticus is on a learning journey and is continuously evolving its monitoring, evaluation and learning practices, and it is expected that the RA provides contributions to this endeavor.

In this role, the RA will be based in Sao Paulo, and will support the LATAM and North America team in collaboration with the 360 team (based in Amsterdam).

  • Contributing to the development of a simple learning approach/agenda within regional teams.

Other areas of complementarity:

  • Pursue regional effective philanthropy opportunities: building key learning/research partnerships, for example with key co-funders, experts, and champions within the region.
  • Support the translation of key results and visualization of the interconnectedness of exploratory and sectoral work.
  • Sharing this research and analysis in a variety of forms, both verbal and written, to primarily internal audiences, including staff, Regional Directors and governance committees

  • Analytical and statistical skills, comfort with both qualitative and quantitative metrics.
  • Facilitation skills, and experience working with diverse stakeholder groups, preferably online.
  • Outstanding administrative and logistical ability including complex project management.
  • Structured thinking at many levels (such as systems change and grasping policy thinking).
  • Ability to work independently, collaboratively, and collegiately at all levels of the organization.
  • Ability to communicate complex concepts and technical concepts in a way that builds ability and confidence within the team, as well as ability and ease to work and communicate across cultures, being aware of potential biases, especially with regards to Gender, Equity and Social Inclusion.
  • Ability to navigate a constantly evolving organizational environment, making constructive contributions according to the different scenarios.
  • Ability to navigate politically complex environments and manage conflict and tensions.
  • Effective oral and written skills (both internally and externally), especially for presentation and communication.
