Position Type: Regular - Full-Time
Requisition ID: 44704
- Funding, Financing & Capital Strategy
- Maintain a current view of the North American funding and financing landscape across agriculture, regenerative agriculture, research, infrastructure, resource efficiency and decarbonization.
- Build and prioritize a portfolio of public funding, incentives, rebates, tax credits, financing and blended-capital opportunities against NA Agriculture and REO priorities.
- Work with internal technical and business owners to translate priority projects into fundable and investable opportunities with clear scope, economics, outcomes, timing and external value.
- Provide concise portfolio visibility to leadership: active awards, funding flow, pipeline value, probability, risks, decisions and next actions.
- Strategic Partnerships & Stakeholder Leadership
- Develop and maintain trusted relationships with government agencies, financial institutions, customers, universities, nonprofits, implementation partners and supply-chain collaborators.
- Lead strategic alignment with partners by understanding their priorities, identifying shared value and shaping credible co-investment or collaboration pathways.
- Serve as McCain’s primary business relationship owner for funded programs and strategic funding partnerships, with clear governance, expectations, scopes of work, milestones and performance management.
- Partner closely with External Affairs, Legal, Finance, Communications, Sales and technical teams where policy, contracting, financial disclosure, customer alignment or public communication is required.
- Program Development, Proposals & Funded-Program Ownership
- Lead priority funding opportunities from initial qualification through submission: workback planning, funder engagement, concept development, stakeholder mapping, partner outreach, proposal narrative, budgets, contribution strategy, support letters, approvals and submission.
- Build clear, audience-specific materials, concept notes, strategic alignment maps, partner decks, executive briefs and funding presentations, that connect McCain priorities with external stakeholder needs.
- Coordinate grant writers, consultants and advisors where they add value while retaining internal ownership of strategy, project design, partner positioning and decision-making.
- Serve as overall program owner for major funded initiatives where McCain holds accountability, maintaining the project plan, partner governance, contractual requirements, reporting, compliance and leadership visibility.
- Own reimbursement and payment-request processes and other funder-required business documentation, ensuring submissions are accurate, auditable and on time.
- Customer Partnership, Co-Investment & Storytelling
- Lead project management for high-profile customer farm visits and agriculture engagements across North America, from request through execution and follow-up.
- Coordinate Agriculture, Sustainability, Sales, Communications and regional teams so each engagement is well prepared, technically credible and tailored to the customer’s priorities.
- Translate McCain’s regenerative agriculture, resilience and resource-efficiency work into clear customer narratives and materials that strengthen partnership and support co-investment where there is strategic fit.
- Build reusable visit, briefing and engagement playbooks so recurring customer work becomes more efficient and consistent.
- Portfolio Systems, Reporting & Continuous Improvement
-
- Maintain practical systems for opportunity tracking, partner mapping, project intake, budgets, proposal development, funded-program governance and reporting.
- Create clear handoffs between the Funding & Partnerships Lead, technical SMEs, regional teams and external partners so strategic work is not lost to administrative churn.
- Use technology and AI responsibly to reduce repetitive work while preserving human judgment for strategy, relationship management, contracting, compliance and external communication.
- Bachelor’s degree in Agriculture, Sustainability, Business, Finance, Economics, Public Policy, Communications, or a related field.
- Advanced degree and/or relevant professional certification considered an asset.
- Demonstrated experience leading complex, multi-stakeholder programs, partnerships, or strategic initiatives from concept through execution.
- Experience in external funding, sustainable finance, corporate finance, public-private partnerships, government programs, infrastructure funding, customer partnerships, or related areas.
- Strong stakeholder management and relationship-building skills with the ability to influence senior leaders and external partners.
- Strong commercial and financial acumen, including business cases, ROI analysis, funding structures, budgeting, and partner economics.
- Experience managing contracts, agreements, scopes of work, compliance requirements, and formal reporting processes.
- Excellent written, verbal, visual, and presentation communication skills.
- Strong storytelling and customer engagement capabilities, including experience developing executive presentations, partner materials, and funding proposals.
- Proven project management skills with the ability to manage multiple long-cycle initiatives simultaneously.
- Ability to operate independently, navigate ambiguity, prioritize effectively, and drive execution from strategy through implementation.
- Willingness and ability to travel periodically across North America and participate in farm, field, customer, and grower site visits.
