Raymundo Tamayo (He / Him)

With over 15 years of international leadership in social development, humanitarian response, and philanthropy, I specialize in managing complex portfolios and implementing impactful strategies in dynamic and challenging environments. My expertise spans program management, strategic planning, stakeholder engagement, and fostering cross-sector partnerships to drive sustainable development. As Country Director for The LEGO Foundation in Mexico, I led the creation of a $12M grant portfolio, integrating trust-based philanthropy and localization practices. This resulted in enhanced stakeholder engagement and strengthened organizational capacity for 8 key partners, enabling them to achieve measurable outcomes for children. At the International Rescue Committee, I scaled operations from 15 staff in one city to over 100 staff across 10 cities during the COVID-19 pandemic, delivering integrated emergency responses and cross-border collaboration. I thrive in managing high-performing teams, mobilizing resources, and aligning initiatives with global priorities to deliver solutions that make a difference. Whether navigating operational complexity or designing strategies for systemic change, I bring a collaborative approach to achieving sustainable and inclusive development. I am actively seeking opportunities to lead transformative programs or partner with nonprofit boards and executive directors through consulting engagements to strengthen governance, organizational strategies, leadership capacity, and results.
