Counterpart International seeks a Grants Officer to support its five-year USAID-funded program Climate Adaptation Activity (CAA) in the Dominican Republic. The CAA program seeks to build locally led, long-term resilience to climate change by promoting sustainable livelihoods and water security, which should result in significant environmental gains in the Dajabon watershed, beyond the province and into Haiti. By engaging communities, leveraging private funding and public resources, enabling data informed decision-making, and building diverse partnerships grounded in inclusion and market-based approaches, the Climate Adaptation Activity will accelerate sustainable social, economic, and environmental outcomes.
The Grants Officer is responsible for managing all core grant partners, in addition to all applications and recipients of the CAA’s competitive mechanisms (e.g., Private Sector Matching Grants Fund, Water Governance Fund, APS, and Green Growth Innovation Fund). The Grants Officer is responsible for coordinating with project teams, donors, partners, and relevant stakeholders to facilitate smooth grant implementation, financial management, reporting, and compliance. The Grants Officer position is based in the Dominican Republic. This position will report to the Grants Manager.
