About Evidence Action
Evidence Action specializes in bringing cost-effective interventions to massive scale. We identify neglected global health issues and operationalize proven solutions - adding years of healthy life for entire generations. Deworm the World, our foundational program, has delivered over 2B deworming treatments, driving dramatic reductions in worm prevalence and generating over $23 billion in lifetime productivity gains.
Our model operationalizes top academic research (including from Nobel-winning economists) and uses experts across global health, supply chain, and infrastructure to develop and implement health interventions at national scale. Our team of 700+ has reached over 500M people, working hand-in-hand with national governments to scale our approach across nine countries. Measurement and evaluation are embedded in every stage of our work - from idea validation in our Accelerator; to coverage validation upon rollout (quantifying uptake of interventions).
The Evidence Action Accelerator, founded in 2019, researches and identifies the next unicorns of development - to date we have found five programs with potential to transform the health outcomes of millions, including:
With these untapped opportunities identified, we are positioned to unlock our next phase of sector-wide impact - and improve health outcomes for hundreds of millions of people globally.
The Role
We are hiring an entrepreneurial Strategic Growth Manager to help drive a step-change increase in Evidence Action’s impact - generating years of health for hundreds of millions of people globally. You will work with the External Relations team to build on our existing strong growth trajectory, while driving further transformative growth and impact. Since 2017 we’ve raised $230M+ from GiveWell alone, and in parallel have roughly doubled our other sources of funding.
Reporting to the Chief Development Officer, you will play a crucial role increasing Evidence Action’s reach through scaling funding opportunities - working closely with executive leadership, defining and executing on donor engagement strategies, managing cross-functional projects with programs and operations teams, supporting on developing new funding models, and running analyses to maximize effectiveness. You’re a creative and high ownership team member who is comfortable with ambiguity, with a track record of strong writing and analytical skills that can help transform ambition into action.
This role will be crucial to securing funding for first-of-their-kind projects - ranging from delivering safe water at scale across India, to scaling life-saving maternal syphilis treatment across Africa- in turn, transforming outcomes for entire generations.
