Fund for the Public Interest -- Partnership Program Director
location: Washington, DC
Fund for the Public Interest (The Fund) is a national nonprofit organization working to raise money and increase visibility, membership and political power for the nation’s leading environmental and progressive groups.
We are looking for an experienced, innovative and ambitious candidate to oversee the Fund’s Partnership Program, which develops citizen outreach programs – primarily canvass programs – with other non-profits, and oversees our relationship with those partner groups. Examples of past and current partner groups include the Sierra Club, Human Rights Campaign
and Save the Children.
The Partnership Program Director’s responsibilities are:
Networking and Marketing: Network and market the Fund’s citizen outreach services to potential partner organizations within the national public interest and non-profit communities.
Partner Acquisition & Negotiation: Identify and negotiate two new national partnerships over the next three years. Manage contracts with existing and potential partner organizations. Work with the Fund’s Canvass team to develop and manage test campaigns on behalf of new partners, including established outreach models (door to door and street canvass, voter
registration) and experimental models. Create customized programs to meet partner needs.
Management of Partner Relationships: Manage the Fund’s relationship with partner organizations; maintain customer
satisfaction with partners.
Organizational Building: Participate as part of the leadership of the Fund. Act as a liaison between the Fund and partner organizations. Help run trainings and staff recruitment drives.
Fundraising: Fundraise for the organization, through canvassing individuals and grantseeking.
Administration: Implement administrative systems including periodic reporting and invoicing to Fund departments and to
partner organizations.
Campaign and Staff Management: Each summer the Partnership Program Director oversees a national event-based
outreach program on behalf of the Human Rights Campaign.
The Partnership Program Director reports to the Director of Citizen Outreach for the Fund for the Public Interest.
Job Qualifications:
• Demonstrated commitment to the public interest, environmental protection, and social change.
• Exemplary communication and writing skills.
• Ability to represent the Fund to the public interest and non-profit communities.
• Fundraising experience -- preferably canvassing or other citizen outreach.
• Experience managing staff and/or running a department
• High level of aptitude with numerical analysis and Microsoft Excel
• Prefer experience in contract negotiation
Application: E-mail your cover letter, resume, and writing sample to Jeff Sprague at careers@publicinterestnetwork.org.
We’ll carefully consider your application and if we think you're a good fit, we'll be in touch.
