SEVA is a Vienna-based nonprofit using craftivism and textile arts to build community and empowerment among women and girls. We're growing our grants function and looking for a Grants Manager to lead our small grant writing team and keep our funding pipeline organized and on track.

What you'll do
  • Manage and support a team of grant writers: regular check-ins, progress updates, and unblocking where needed
  • Maintain and improve our grant tracker: deadlines, statuses, submitted/pending/awarded opportunities
  • Research and flag new grant opportunities aligned with SEVA's mission
  • Review and finalize grant applications drafted by the writing team before submission
  • Coordinate with SEVA's leadership on funding priorities and budget alignment

What we're looking for
  • Experience in grant writing, ideally with nonprofits or mission-driven organizations
  • Experience managing people or coordinating a team, even informally
  • Strong organizational skills and comfort with tracking tools
  • Independent, reliable, and communicative: this is a remote/flexible volunteer role
  • Interest in women's empowerment, craftivism, or community-based nonprofit work is a plus

Details
  • Volunteer position, remote-friendly, flexible hours
  • Reports to the Founder/Chairwoman
  • Based in or familiar with the Vienna nonprofit/funding landscape a plus, not required

What We Offer
  • Meaningful involvement in a women-led nonprofit initiative
  • Flexible volunteer commitment and remote friendly collaboration
  • Opportunity to shape SEVA’s funding strategy from an early stage
  • Practical experience and references upon successful collaboration
  • Letter of recommendation and/or certificate of completion

Please note this is an unpaid volunteer position. We are unable to offer financial compensation for this role as we are a small start-up organization.
