I am currently the only Fund Manager at the EA Infrastructure Fund… and that needs to change!
I work full-time on something else within the Centre for Effective Altruism, and the EAIF needs a dedicated owner who will drive it forwards.
I think we’re sitting on a big opportunity here. There’s so much that the EA movement could achieve, and so much great work that could be enabled by EAIF.
Some indicators of promise here:
CEA is growing, but there’s only so much that CEA can work on in-house. We need to fund and nurture great work that’s happening elsewhere, too!
There are potential new sources of funding that EAIF could tap into; building a strong product here that donors are excited about is essential.
We have a mini roadmap laid out by recent successes within EA Funds.
Let me say more on that last one. I’ve been extremely impressed by what another EA Fund, the Animal Welfare Fund, has achieved over the past year or two, improving it’s evaluation quality, it’s staffing, and it’s available pool of resources. I think the EAIF has the potential for a similar rocketship trajectory; it needs the right person to come in and make that happen.
CEA is hiring for a new Head of the EA Infrastructure Fund: full job description and application form here, apply by 4th May.
Let me know if you have questions! I can’t promise deep engagement with all potential candidates, but I’ll help out with key/quick uncertainties if I can! Some additional thoughts from Loic, new Head of EA Funds, here.
