About the role
This interview focuses on building a sustainable funding pipeline rather than simply finding open calls. The panel will assess how you qualify prospects, coordinate competitive proposals, maintain donor relationships and protect alignment with the organisation's strategy.
How to prepare
- Prepare one funding opportunity you qualified and explain why the organisation pursued or declined it.
- Map your proposal process from the first requirement review to final submission.
- Choose a donor relationship example that shows thoughtful follow-up over time.
- Review how you track prospects, owners, deadlines, decisions and lessons from unsuccessful bids.
Common mistakes
- Measuring resource mobilisation only by the number of applications submitted.
- Chasing funding that pulls programmes away from their purpose or capability.
- Claiming full credit for a proposal assembled by programme, finance and technical colleagues.
