Why this is on the board
For a year, you decide yourself where 1 million dollars in grants goes. You do that not by waiting for applications, but by tracking down opportunities other funders overlook. According to the organisation, there is more money available than people who can allocate it well, so whoever learns the craft here can go on to direct much larger sums for years.

About the role
Over the course of a year, the Fieldshaper program develops you into a field-leading grantmaker. You’ll steward $1,000,000 in grant capital, receive a $125,000 annual stipend, and deploy that capital within a sub-field of one of three key areas (farmed animals, global health, or philanthropic infrastructure); building the track record to become a grantmaker who can shape a field.
