About Crown Family Philanthropies
Crown Family Philanthropies (CFP) is the philanthropic division of Henry Crown and Company (see below) and supports the Crown Family's philanthropic and grantmaking endeavors. In 2009, after more than 60 years of family grantmaking under the name Arie and Ida Crown Memorial, CFP was developed to represent an array of family grantmaking practices. Today the legacy of Arie and Ida Crown lives on in the work continued by their descendants, who remain dedicated to the Jewish tradition of tikkun olam, or "repairing the world." Supported by a professional staff of experts, CFP is led by more than 50 family members across multiple generations who come together for strategic grantmaking.
Why work for us?
Henry Crown and Company (HCC) is a Chicago-based, privately-held operation - not a 501(c)(3) - that manages business interests and coordinates investments falling into four broadly-defined categories: publicly-traded securities, real estate, investment funds, and privately held operating companies. We are a private enterprise with more than a 100-year legacy and track record of financial success, supporting our communities, and taking care of our employees. We plan strategically with a long-term time horizon and an integrated approach to access superior opportunities and optimize financial results. Integrity, collaboration, and dedication are cornerstones of our workplace culture that create rewarding professional experiences.

  • Communicate grant cycle process requirements to grantees and applicants, responding to inquiries as needed; exercise judgment regarding managing deadlines, expectations and level of information shared with grantee and candidate organizations
  • Review grantee progress reports and work with relevant Program staff to determine if grant requirements have been met, including the development and tracking of the data dashboard
  • Assist in the coordination of meeting planning, site visits, and other learning opportunities to increase family engagement within the Gun Violence Prevention program area
  • Attend and provide administrative support for Gun Violence Prevention grantmaking and strategy meetings
  • Assist with research and/or data analysis for assigned Gun Violence Prevention portfolio areas
  • Support Grants Management team in ensuring high-quality, accurate, and efficient data entry for grantmaking work across the Foundation
  • Coordinate with CFP teams across program areas, operations, strategy, and family engagement to ensure cross-functional communication and consistency
  • Track, report, and coordinate the foundation's, family's, and partners' fundraising efforts for Gun Violence Prevention initiatives

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's Degree and/or commensurate field experience required
  • 2+ years of experience in the philanthropic/non-profit space, preferably surrounding gun violence prevention work
  • Strong oral and written communications skills, including the ability to write clearly/succinctly, ask effective questions, listen, observe, and synthesize multiple inputs with sensitivity, diplomacy, and professionalism
  • Ability to analyze complex and controversial issues with objectivity, to exhibit critical thinking skills, and to discuss and write about such issues in a neutral, balanced, and thorough manner
  • Experience with grant cycle management, grantmaking analysis, research/writing, and administration support is preferred
  • Ability to play a collaborative role within the Program team
  • Superb organizational skills, including ability to manage simultaneous priorities
