Why this is on the board
Since 2011 GiveDirectly has transferred more than a billion dollars directly to people in poverty; every euro lost to fraud reaches no one. As an analyst in internal audit you look for patterns in payment and enrolment data that point to it, and build controls that make it visible earlier as a matter of course — for all programmes at once, not one case at a time.

About the role
GiveDirectly has delivered more than $1B in cash directly to 2+ million people living in poverty across 15 countries since 2011. We believe cash transfers are one of the most scalable, cost-effective, and dignified forms of aid, with the research to back it up. Our work has been covered by The Economist , NPR , TED , and The Washington Post . We are one of Time100’s Most Influential Companies of 2026.
