Job Description

The San Diego Food System Alliance is seeking an experienced Grants & Impact Director who can build our organization’s capacity to resource our movement-building work, as well as the work of our partners and peers who make up the San Diego County Food Vision 2030 movement. This position will work closely with the Co-Executive Directors and serve as a key leader for determining how resources can be mobilized to support the work of our organization and our broader community.

Currently, a large part of our resource mobilization strategy includes securing grants for organizational programs and operations, moving funds into the community, and organizing ways to align funders with community needs and values. A significant portion of this strategy is now being implemented through the Local Food Economy Lab. The Lab is a new initiative that centers equity and community ownership, and works to support the viability of small-scale farmers, ranchers, fishermen, food business owners, and the communities they serve in San Diego County. The Lab provides holistic business support services, manages community funds, and helps facilitate access to grants and financing resources. 

In addition to supporting the resource mobilization strategy for the Lab, the Grants & Impact Director will also lead the grants process and organizational impact evaluation for the Alliance.
