[YEP-DC] [JOB] Research, Writing and Operations Associate at New Leaders

Hello YEP-ers,

I am just the messenger, but we are hiring for a position on the external relations team at New Leaders (www.newleaders.org). See below for the full position description.

Length of position: This position is right now a contract position, full-time for 6 months. While it is our goal to have the position be full-time (and we will be hiring with an eye toward that), we can't guarantee it until April or May. 

Location: The person can be located anywhere, not just DC. 

Skills: Great role for someone interested in non-profit fundraising and a great introduction to development operations and grantwriting.

Qualifications: Strong research, writing and project management skills. Applicants do not *have* to have grant-writing experience, but it would be a plus.

To apply: Send a resume and cover letter to Terrence Kneisel at tkneisel@newleaders.org . Applications and interviews are happening on a rolling basis, so I would apply ASAP.

Good luck!

Charlotte Nugent
