Since its establishment in 2000, Search for Common Ground (Search) has maintained a presence in Jerusalem, where we have implemented projects across various thematic areas including inclusive governance, women, peace and security, media and inter-religious dialogue among others. Over the past two decades, we have developed extensive expertise in managing large-scale and diverse projects. Our collaboration extends to diverse local partners, ranging from grassroots organizations and activists to women's groups, all sharing a vision to overcome fragmentation and promote inclusive narratives. Our diverse team possess significant experience in managing multi-sectorial programs, comprises experts in conflict transformation, peace-building, capacity building, media, and program management. They bring to the table a deeper, lived experience of the conflict, coupled with a nuanced understanding of its various social, political, and religious dimensions. Conflict sensitivity is ingrained in our everyday interactions and is a fundamental aspect of the design and implementation of our programs.

The Programs team has oversight on the management of restricted grants to drive impact and ensure compliance. The Programs team supports in-country Directors and Managers to effectively follow Search and donor policies and procedures regarding grant implementation. This function commences with the signing of a grant and completes with the final close-out. This involves monitoring, reporting, and where appropriate, engagement with donors. It involves oversight on both program quality and compliance, working in close collaboration with other departments, including Finance, the Institutional Learning Team, Strategy Alignment, Program Quality, Communications, and Human Resources. The Programs team aims to build and strengthen the capacity of program implementation at Search and with partner staff in-country.

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling-basis.
