- About The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
- The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation is one of the nation's largest independent foundations. The Foundation supports creative people, effective institutions, and influential networks building a more just, verdant, and peaceful world. MacArthur is placing a few big bets that truly significant progress is possible on some of the world’s most pressing social challenges, including advancing global climate solutions, decreasing nuclear risk, promoting local justice reform in the U.S., and reducing corruption in Africa’s most populous country, Nigeria. In addition to the MacArthur Fellows Program, and the global _100&Change _competition, the Foundation continues its historic commitments to the role of journalism in a responsible and responsive democracy, as well as the vitality of our headquarters city, Chicago. Organizations supported by the Foundation work in about 50 countries. In addition to Chicago, MacArthur has offices in India and Nigeria. For more information, please visit our website at
- About Partnerships
- MacArthur has engaged in a series of coalitions, partnerships, and collaborative grantmaking efforts with other funders to pool our resources and expand our impact. Some of our most recent examples include:
- The Partnership for Safe and Peaceful Communities, a coalition of more than 50 foundations and funders, working together to identify and support community-led, evidence-based solutions that the public sector can scale as part of a comprehensive approach to addressing gun violence;-
- The NetGain Partnership, a collaboration, guided by a set of- Technology Principles
- that seek to influence policy, markets, norms, and the design and use of the internet and information technologies to make the world a better place; and-
- Coming together with more than 23 climate funders to commit- more than $300 million to reduce methane- emissions globally
- .- To-date, the Partnerships role has largely focused on launching Press Forward, a national movement to strengthen our democracy by revitalizing local news and information. MacArthur is leading Press Forward, a collaborative Big Bet on Local News, that we launched in September of 2023 with a coalition of 22 funders who are investing more than $500 million to strengthen local newsrooms, close long-standing gaps in journalism coverage, advance public policy that expands access to local news, and to scale the infrastructure the sector needs to thrive. Press Forward partners are moving from individual grantmaking strategies to a shared vision and coordinated action and the national coalition has grown to include 50+ funders, including 17 Local Chapters. We anticipate the role expanding to include partnerships, collaborations, and convenings under our other
- programmatic areas
- Position Overview
- The Director of Partnerships will be responsible for developing and executing the strategic plan to engage key networks and partners that advance the Foundation’s mission. This person will identify and assess opportunities to collaborate with various stakeholders within the philanthropic, public, and private sectors to explore large scale collaborative opportunities, prospective leveraging of resources, and approaches to influence our grantmaking strategies. Initially, the Director of Partnerships will be focused on partnership work focused on the Press Forward initiative and over time, will be responsible for driving strategic partnership plans to support other MacArthur programs. The Director of Partnerships will oversee the design and implementation of a partnerships database tool to maintain our partnerships pipeline, track progress, and to aid in shared, data-driven decision making. This will be an ideal opportunity for an individual who gets equally excited about cultivating and strengthening relationships with key partners as they will be responsible for designing systems and executing a multi-year strategic plan.
