Expressions of Interest

Strategic Funding and Partnerships Review

Overview

Following another successful Annual Parliamentary Conference, the Crawford Fund for Food Security sees an opportunity to build on its successes and scale its impact.

We seek to explore new partnerships and funding opportunities that can extend the reach of our work, strengthen our contribution to global food security and support our ambitions for the future.

To help us do this, we are inviting Expressions of Interest from experienced consultants to undertake a Strategic Funding and Partnerships Review.

The review will help us clarify our value propositions for external investment, identify realistic opportunities to diversify funding, assess prospective partners and funding pathways, and develop a practical implementation framework.

We are seeking a senior adviser with experience in fundraising and sponsorship strategy, strategic partnerships, philanthropy, government funding and stakeholder engagement. Experience in agriculture, food systems, international development or research organisations would be highly regarded.

The assignment is expected to involve approximately 20–25 days of focused strategic work over the consultancy period.

Full details of the scope, deliverables, timetable, evaluation criteria and application process are provided in the Strategic Funding and Partnerships Review EOI. 

Expressions of Interest close at 5.00 pm AEST on 24 September 2026.

Enquiries prior to submission are welcome and should be directed to: [email protected]
