ABOUT NEW PROFIT
New Profit is a nonprofit venture philanthropy organization that backs breakthrough social entrepreneurs who are advancing equity and opportunity in America. New Profit's strategy focuses on building a breakthrough portfolio of grantee-partners to take on entrenched systemic challenges in America, including by driving resources and support to Black, Indigenous, and Latino/a/x social entrepreneurs who have unique proximity to solutions, but face stark racial funding disparities in philanthropy; and investing in social entrepreneurs with new systems change models across a range of issues. Learn more at
In 2014, we created New Profit's Catalyze Investments to address the significant lack of investment in organizations with leaders and focus areas that have historically been underinvested in, such as democracy reform and criminal justice. Through Catalyze Investments, we identify and invest in high potential early-stage organizations led by diverse social entrepreneurs working in historically underinvested areas. We also build organizations' capacity to accelerate their growth and transition to mid-stage organizations. To date, we have supported 88 organizations across over 10 cohorts and have deployed $6M+ in direct investments.
POSITION DESCRIPTION
New Profit seeks an energetic, detail-oriented, and highly organized individual to lead events logistics for the Catalyze Investments team, including in-person convenings and virtual webinars that host a range of participants, from 10-150, as well as support other New Profit Portfolio events. The Manager, Events will be a member of New Profit's Portfolio team.
The Manager is responsible for leading events work-planning, budget management, logistics and ensuring a flawlessly executed onsite experience for New Profit's convenings. The person in this role will work closely with the Portfolio team, Catalyze Investments team, Operations team, and Finance teams to project manage events design and execution, track expenses against the events budget, build and maintain relationships with vendors, manage onsite logistics at all events, as well as customer service engagement with participants before, during and following events. This role will be essential in delivering intimate events for Social Entrepreneurs that provide joy, restoration, and overall reflects New Profit's values of building a multiracial, intergenerational, cross-sector movement.
A successful Manager will develop comprehensive tools and systems to track event progress, manage colleagues towards deadlines and key milestones, lead team-level design meetings, and proactively drive work forward while remaining adaptable. A key element of our success to date is rooted in our commitment to designing convenings that inspire, energize, and strengthen our community by closely linking event logistics with the content being delivered.
WHAT YOU WILL DO
The salary range for this position will be $92,110 - $105,412 annually, with the exact salary depending on prior work experience and the assessment of one's fit for the role.
