Description

**Company Description

Join us as a Team Administrator.**The Anglo American Foundation (AAF) was established in 2018/19 by merging the activities of the Anglo American Chairman's Fund (South Africabased entity) and the Anglo American Group Foundation to form a single Foundation operating as a single entity with a common strategy and set of trustees.

In July 2021 Anglo American committed to endowing the Foundation with a $100 million donation, significantly boosting the Foundation's ability to support progress towards the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

This donation presented an opportunity to redefine the Foundation's strategy, including its governance and operating model, to ensure it can deliver to an entirely new level.

Since receiving the donation, the Foundation has gone through a strategy review process to define its key strategic focus areas for the next seven to ten years.

While AAF remains aligned with the Anglo American purpose ("reimagining mining to improve people's lives") and geographical footprint, it will be distinct and independent from the company.

Additionally, AAF will move from being a passive grant-maker to an engaged, strategic grant-maker, focusing on long-term, system-level change, at a country/ regional level.

Anglo American Foundation's future strategic focus will be on
empowering youth to create sustainable and inclusive communities, through catalysing green value chains and building resilience.
