Kansas City, MO

Program Officer, Heartland Capital, Kauffman Foundation

The Organization

BACKGROUND

The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation was established in the mid-1960s by the late entrepreneur and philanthropist Ewing Marion Kauffman. Based in Kansas City, Missouri, the Kauffman Foundation is among the largest foundations in the United States with an asset base of approximately $2 billion.

The Foundation’s vision is to foster “a society of economically independent individuals who are engaged citizens, contributing to the improvement of their communities.” In service of this vision, we focus our grant making and operations on two areas—education and entrepreneurship—which our founder, Ewing Kauffman, saw as two ends of a continuum. A quality education is the foundation for self-sufficiency, preparing young people for success in college and in life. Many young adults will work in businesses started by entrepreneurs. Some will become entrepreneurs themselves, providing jobs and wealth for society.

Our mission:

To help individuals attain economic independence by advancing educational achievement and entrepreneurial success, consistent with the aspirations of our founder, Ewing Marion Kauffman.

Position Overview

RESPONSIBILITIES

The Entrepreneur Support Organizations (ESO) team works to strengthen entrepreneurs by supporting the ESOs that provide them with the resources and education they need to start and grow businesses. This strategy is focused in the Heartland Region (MO, IA, NE, and KS) where we work with ESOs to provide entrepreneurs with more equitable access to resources, especially those from underrepresented populations and geographies. One of those critical resources is capital. Kauffman’s grantmaking and convenings include a focus on highlighting new models of thinking and distribution that will lead to more equitable access to capital for entrepreneurs in the region.

Kauffman is seeking a Program Officer (PO) to join our ESO grantmaking team. This PO will manage a broad grant portfolio that addresses systemic inequities that impact entrepreneurs’ access to capital. Like every member of the team, the PO will agree to live our team values of integrity, curiosity, humor, and community, in addition to the Foundation’s associate credo.

Specific Responsibilities include: 

Grantmaking:

·       Rigorously evaluate potential grantees, both remotely and in person, based on financial and organizational capacity, as well as strategic fit.

·       Collaborate with ESO and Entrepreneurship Department teammates to improve our shared understanding of the landscape and entrepreneur needs related to capital access.

·       Collaborate with ESO teammates to develop and maintain a logic model relevant to capital access work.

Departmental Collaboration:

·       Grow and maintain a range of content knowledge on all issues that are of interest to the department, with a special focus on strategies that advance equitable capital access, alternative capital models, alternative underwriting standards, and relevant public policy and regulatory measures.

·       Collaborate with others within the Entrepreneurship Department, and within the Foundation if/as necessary to learn, share in a variety of ways, including making relevant introductions, making recommendations to inform topical content development, and explaining market dynamics to enrich understanding of grantees’ work.

·       Maintain a good knowledge of the landscape of thought leaders and key operators with an interest in equitable capital access and alternative capital models in the region. Manage high-profile relationships with integrity and care.

·       Participate in foundation and community events as needed to support the department’s strategic goals.

Local/Regional Relationship Development:

·       Develop and maintain relationships with key contributors to the local (Kansas City) and regional capital community, including regulators, traditional lenders, CDFI and alternative lending leaders, and social impact investors.

·       Identify potential partnerships, acting as a catalyst, colleague and advocate who is dedicated to educating groups on Kauffman initiatives and engagement.

·       Cultivate and persuade C-suite stakeholders in the capital markets to collaborate in order to develop solutions that make access to capital more equitable.

·       Continuously refine and refresh understanding of the local capital community, including maintaining knowledge of the lending and investment priorities of individual institutions across the region. Manage the implementation of projects that improve our understanding of capital challenges that entrepreneurs in the region face.

·       Connect and encourage relationship development between top thought leaders in alternative capital and organizations, including banks and ESOs in the region.
