About ILGA-Europe

ILGA-Europe is a driving force for political, legal and social change at European and Central Asian level. Our vision is of a world where dignity, freedoms and full enjoyment of human rights are protected and ensured to everyone regardless of their actual or perceived sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression and sex characteristics.]
A core part of our work is supporting the development of strong, skilled and connected movements. This includes grantmaking, learning, convening, coordination and strategic support to LGBTI organisations and activists, as well as meaningful connections between them.

The Senior Programmes Officer (Temporary Cover) will contribute directly to this work, with a particular focus on the implementation of the 2026-2027 Racial Justice Fund and on activities supporting movement capacity-building, including base-building, mobilisation and civic engagement.

What skills, knowledge and abilities are we looking for?

We are looking for someone who combines strategic thinking with practical programme delivery and who can quickly orient themselves in new areas of work, synthesise information, identify priorities, and translate analysis into action in a complex context – with care, ambition, and thoughtfulness.

To be successful in this role, you should have demonstrated experience in:

  • developing, implementing or managing grantmaking or funding programmes, including accompaniment of partners;
  • working directly with LGBTI organisations and/or other marginalised groups, ideally in movement-based or grassroots contexts;
  • contributing to or supporting racial justice, anti-racism or other intersectional justice work;
  • facilitating or supporting learning, coordination or strategy processes with organisations, networks or movements;
  • working in politically sensitive, rapidly changing or high-pressure environments, including adapting plans in response to emerging developments;
  • synthesising information from multiple sources and turning it into clear priorities, strategies or programme responses;
  • managing projects and budgets and ensuring delivery in a structured and accountable way;
  • collaborating and communicating effectively across teams and with external partners, including activists, consultants and funders.
