Manager, Fundraising Communications

Location
:
BRAC Head Office, Dhaka

Last Date of Application: August 23, 2025

After over 50 years of impact at scale, BRAC is more determined than ever to create opportunities to realise human potential. To do this, BRAC is looking to raise awareness of its work and values amongst key stakeholders in strategic markets across North America and Europe, particularly through digital communications and media engagement, to raise resources for BRAC programmes. To achieve that, BRAC staff in Washington, DC, London and Copenhagen will need regular access to communications products and information from BRAC and BRAC International programmes.

In light of this we are looking for a motivated and experienced individual to join us as Manager, Fundraising Communications, who will play a key role both in creating high-quality communications products to support fundraising across BRAC, particularly in the US and Europe, but also in ensuring that relevant content, statistics and products get shared with the US and European communications teams.

Major Responsibilities

Produce audience-focused content for US, UK and European markets (60%):

• Working in close partnership with BRAC and BRAC International communications teams in Dhaka, the Fundraising Communications Manager will help to maintain a steady flow of content (40 stories/videos per year) out to the affiliates to inform and inspire their growing audiences. This content could be originally reported by the manager, but more likely curated and adapted from content the individual gathers from BRAC and BRAC International colleagues.

Support programs on communications requirements for US-, UK- and European-funded projects (20%):

• With a growing portfolio of corporate, foundation and institutional partnerships from the USA and Europe, the Manager will work to support program communicators who have project-related communication deliverables for a myriad of donors including the U.S. Department of State, Gates Foundation, the Lego Foundation, the FCDO, European Union, SIDA, and DANIDA, as well as a number of other foundations and corporate partners. The Manager will work to keep USA and European affiliates aware of upcoming content deliveries (e.g., ahead of a scheduled program report) and will work to support the story selection and adaptation of final content beyond grant reports for global audiences. The Manager will sometimes support members of the Global Resource Mobilisation and Partnerships (GRP) team on deliverables such as review of communications-heavy project proposals and reports.

Internal coordination (20%):

• This role is responsible for ensuring that affiliate teams have access to the latest situation reports, stories, photography, data, and research that can support their brand, advocacy, and fundraising efforts. Each week, the Manager will participate in calls with their colleagues in Europe and America, and work to maintain a shared content calendar for forward planning. The Manager, Fundraising Communications, will also attend key communications meetings that happen in Dhaka. Additionally, this role will have responsibility for coordinating the Global Editorial Calendar, ensuring teams across BRAC are keeping it up to date.

Safeguarding Responsibilities

• Ensure the safety of Programme Participants, people who come into contact with the organisation and team members from any harm, abuse, neglect, harassment and exploitation including sexual exploitation and abuse (SEA) to achieve the programme's goals of safeguarding implementation. Act as a key source of support, guidance and expertise on safeguarding for establishing a safe working environment.
• Practice, promote and endorse the issues of safeguarding policy among team members and ensure the implementation of safeguarding standards in every course of action.
• Follow the safeguarding reporting procedure in case any reportable incident takes place and encourage others to do so.

Additional Job Requirements

• Strong sense of teamwork and collaboration and ability to build relationships and work effectively in-person and especially remotely
• Strong diplomacy skills with a demonstrated ability to work with various internal and external stakeholders
• Demonstrated cross-cultural sensitivity, knowledge, and understanding; ability to build relationships with individuals from diverse backgrounds and collaborate effectively with colleagues on global teams
• Excellent communication skills, with excellent attention to detail

• Experience working on projects within multidisciplinary, multicultural teams to achieve shared objectives
• Experience supporting media engagement activities within a global, multi-entity organisation

• Demonstrated experience in branding and creative strategy and upholding brand voice and style
• Experience in charting content strategy and developing content for a brand, with a focus on storytelling and thought leadership
• Highly skilled user of technology; experience with all forms of social media, email marketing, website management and WordPress/CMS ideal, but if not, with an aptitude to learn; experience with Salesforce or other CRM; basic knowledge of HTML preferred
• Robust photography and design skills, including experience using Canva
• Ability to use graphic design tools, such as the Adobe Creative Suite (InDesign, Photoshop)
• Ability to manage and prioritize multiple priorities, projects, and vendors
• Strong desire to learn and ability to adapt and be flexible
• Passion for International Development and humanitarian work
• Willingness and enthusiasm to travel to the USA, UK and Europe - up to three weeks each year
