Movement building

The Girls First Fund (GFF) was created in 2018 by a group of philanthropic partners who believed that community-based organizations are the key drivers of change to end child, early, and forced marriage or unions. As a global collaborative fund, GFF channels flexible, multi-year funding and tailored support to mainly girl- and women-led organizations advancing locally rooted, gender-transformative solutions.

The Role

Reporting to the Advisory Committee, Girls First Fund seeks their next Director to steward the organization, its strategy, its partnerships, and its role championing community-led efforts so that all girls can live free from child marriage and create their own future. The Director will be responsible for leading GFF’s work increasing the financial resources channeled to community-based organizations to prevent and respond to child marriage, and amplifying the voices of these vital organizations. The Director will lead and collaborate with a team of 20, many of whom have been with the organization since it’s founding. The Director is ultimately responsible for the strategic, grantmaking, and financial operations of the organization.

Candidate Profile
GFF is seeking a strategic, collaborative, and inspirational leader with a passion for advancing community-based, girlcentered, and gender-transformative work. The Director will bring deep experience, networks, and relationships across philanthropic and advocacy spheres—and enthusiasm for mobilizing the resources and donor community needed to sustain and grow this work. The Director will ideally bring the following set of skills and experiences to the position:
Fundraising and donor relations: Experience cultivating institutional and individual donors will be critical for the next Director, as they sustain and expand GFF’s funding base. The next Director will bring an existing network of funder relationships and the ability to build new partnerships for the organization.
Grassroots CBO connection: The next Director will bring deep experience with grassroots community-based organizations in the Global South and an understanding of the challenges they face. They will bring an authentic connection to GFF’s partners and grantees, drawing from their experience.
External engagement: The Director will be skilled in external representation, drawing from their experience representing organizations globally across a variety of spaces and audiences including philanthropy, feminist movements, the movement to end child and early forced marriage, community-based organizations and more.
Organizational leadership: The next leader of GFF will bring experience managing organizations and teams across geographies and will be comfortable making strategic and operational decisions in line with GFF’s newly refreshed strategy, in partnership with the board and staff.

About the project
J-PAL South Asia is collaborating with the Punjab Police to evaluate efforts to support female officers and institutionalize gender-sensitive practices within the police department. The focus of the study is Punjab Police’s Mahila Mitra (PPMM) program, which created help-desks for women and assigned female officers to staff those desks. The research project examines efforts to “mainstream” the PPMM program within the day-to-day work of the police station through different approaches to training. Using a mixed-methods approach (combining a randomized controlled trial and qualitative research), the study will evaluate the impact of different training modalities (female officers only; female and male officers in different settings; or female and male officers together) on the experiences and job satisfaction of female officers; the perception of female officers within the police; the implementation of the PPPM program, and police responsiveness to women.

Job description
Qualitative research, including observations of and interviews with PPMM officers, will be integrated in all stages of the study, accompanying and complementing the RCT. The Research Associate’s role requires (a) working closely with the Principal Investigators on designing qualitative instruments, piloting them, and using them to conduct in-depth interviews with frontline officers; (b) qualitative analysis and thematic coding of fieldnotes; and (c) working closely with the stakeholders on overseeing the development of the intervention training materials for a full-scale RCT.
