Do people who know you refer to you as “The Connector” or some other type of network aficionado nickname? Does your commitment to every child’s education drive you to do whatever needs to be done to ensure that education is of the quality they deserve? Have you seen the difference effective and equitable management practices can make in how well teams can deliver results for the children they educate? We’d like a word with you!
The Management Center (TMC) is seeking our first Partner, Education Sector Engagement & Partnerships to contribute to the ever-expanding work of our Educational Equity (Ed Equity) Team. The Partner will leverage their, and TMC’s, networks of leaders, schools, and organizations committed to the success of every child to build and grow partnerships with TMC to offer our services of management coaching and training.
Who We Are
We view educational equity as much-needed social change, and our mission is to help social change leaders learn how to build and run more effective organizations so they can deliver great results. Founded in 2006, we have helped shape the practices of hundreds of influential organizations and thousands of individual managers, focusing in particular on leading progressive organizations working for social change. In 2015, we expanded our reach to include the educational equity sector. This sector development is still in start-up mode as we build our support of superintendents, school leaders responsible for the children and adults in their buildings, among other leaders in the education space, and organizations advocating for more equitable educational policies. Our clients work on issues where they face an inherently uphill battle and so must fight more effectively if they are going to achieve their missions and do their best for children. We aim to help them by making their organizations as effective as possible.
The Ed Equity Team has ambitious goals to support as many school leaders and organizations that educate some of our most vulnerable populations (students of color and low-income students) as possible. We are particularly committed to serving schools/organizations led by and for leaders of color and indigenous leaders.
What You’ll Do
Reporting to the head of the educational equity sector, the Partner will be an integral member of the team who will create an outreach game plan and execute it by quickly identifying and winning over strategic clients who have high expectations for our work with them. This individual will cut through all red tape to get the job done and secure future partnerships/business for our ed sector coaches and trainers in order to help us reach our ambitious goals.
This newly developed role will evolve over time, but you’ll have 2 major areas of responsibility:
Strategic engagement and partnership-building – approximately 70% of your time
Build and maintain relationships across the education sector to generate business (primarily in schools, school districts, and non-profits/foundations that support either).
Secure and/or maintain at least 7 Ed Equity partnerships within the first year with at least 1 being an organization lead by a person of color or indigenous person.
Team support – approximately 30% of your time
Identify/develop internal systems that make the building and maintenance of relationships with external partners easier to scale.
Steward strategic partnerships that help us accomplish our goals around impact and number of managers trained, including
Acting as a liaison between external partners and the rest of the Ed Equity team.
Delegating logistical aspects of partnerships (e.g. writing contracts, conducting intake calls, scheduling onsite trainings) to the relevant TMC team member
Collaborating with the Administrative Team and the Ed Equity Sector Head to ensure everyone has the information they need to move forward
Lead trainings for select clients; including the majority of trainings at education conferences TMC attends
If you were a member of the team this year, you would have been
Networking with school and district leaders, hearing their needs, and recommending resources to them (TMC and others).
Identifying and pursuing potential new partnerships that TMC’s Ed Equity Sector should pursue.
Setting up the initial systems for new partnerships and analyzing the systems for current partnerships to ensure client needs met and all members our team understand their roles with the client.
Creating an outreach plan to secure school leader management trainings for the summer.
Partnering with large public school districts when big and tricky issues arise.
What Else You Should Know
We are an equal opportunity employer, are committed to racial equity, and we make a particular effort to recruit people of color, indigenous people, and gender-non-conforming people to apply for open positions.
This position is full-time, can be based anywhere in the United States, and requires moderate travel (1 – 4 days per month).
The full-time salary range is between $122,400 to $166,400 for Partners, with exact salary depending on experience and new staff rarely starting at the top of the range. We also offer excellent benefits, including an additional 5% employer contribution to your retirement fund with no match required.

The Management Center (TMC) is continuing to grow! We’ve been steadily expanding, and we are seeking an experienced educational equity leader to work with our clients (e.g. school leaders and other educational equity leaders who have managed senior level people in a school system or network of schools). You will lead coaching engagements and serve as a teacher/coach/trainer/nudge/confidante/advisor/thought-partner to client executives, with the aim of helping them build their teams into high performing organizations that deliver great results.
Ideal candidates won’t be lifelong consultants or necessarily have any consulting experience at all. Rather, we seek experienced managers who have produced results and who have a passion for teaching other leaders from diverse backgrounds how to do the same.
Who We Are
We view educational equity as much-needed social change, and our mission is to help social change leaders learn how to build and run more effective organizations so they can deliver great results. Founded in 2006, we have helped shape the practices of hundreds of influential organizations and thousands of individual managers, focusing in particular on leading progressive organizations working for social change. Several years ago, we expanded our reach to include the educational equity sector. This sector development is still in start-up mode as we build our support of superintendents, organizations advocating for more equitable educational policies, school leaders responsible for the children and adults in their buildings, among other leaders in the education space. Our clients work on issues where they face an inherently uphill battle and so must fight more effectively if they are going to achieve their missions and do their best for children. We aim to help them by making their organizations as effective as possible.
A great deal of our work involves direct coaching of clients, and we also offer publications and training to the broader field. Along the way, we have built a strong reputation: on our most recent anonymous survey, 95% of clients said they “Strongly Agree” (the top choice on a 7-point scale) that they would recommend TMC to a friend. Such positive word-of-mouth has created fairly explosive demand for our services that the new coach will help us meet.
What You’ll Do
Your job will be to instill the management practices that will help your educational equity clients build higher-performing organizations that deliver great results. You will work with principals, superintendents, executive directors and their senior teams to help them define ambitious goals; manage for execution; implement rigorous “people practices,” including selecting and retaining a diverse team of the best talent and letting go of people who don’t meet a high bar; and build cultures that reinforce a high bar for performance, constant improvement, and values like equity and transparency.
At any given time, you will lead roughly four to six intensive client engagements and several other less intensive relationships. Your work with clients might include:
Observing them in action, diagnosing their needs, and designing the scope of our work with them;
Delivering services to clients, including coaching senior executives one-on-one, designing new organization-wide systems, providing advice on challenges of the day, and conducting trainings for senior teams;
Serving as the primary point of contact for clients and developing strong working relationships with them;
In the friendliest way possible, nagging client leaders to make sure they are following-up on their commitments; and
Prioritizing across client needs to ensure we spend our energy wisely.
Beyond your work with clients, you will help build and grow TMC. This means you will leverage your networks and cultivate strong relationships to identify additional educational equity leaders and organizations that could benefit from TMC’s services. You also might develop new tools for all of our clients to use, identify better approaches for how we engage with clients, or help us come up with more effective ways to assess our progress. You will also help shape the organization’s strategic direction, and serve as an external ambassador with key constituents.
You will report to one of our senior coaches, who will measure your success primarily by improvement in your clients’ practices, client satisfaction, revenue generated, and fit with our culture.
Who You Are
To be successful in this job, you will excel in four areas: Management instincts : You will have a demonstrated track record of success in managing a high-performing organization, department, or team, and will therefore bring a deep understanding of what it takes to produce results, instincts for going beyond the “textbook” to get to solutions that will work, and an appreciation for the CEO perspective and what it’s like to be in a senior management role.
Critical thinking skills : You will need the smarts to quickly become “fluent” in your clients’ contexts, analyze situations to see beyond the surface of challenges, and effectively customize general practices to fit clients’ particular needs.
Interpersonal ability and a strong lens on issues of racial equity : You must be able to build trust and goodwill with clients and demonstrate deep respect for the clients’ work. You’re the kind of person who thrives on teaching and developing others, while bringing a healthy impatience to see progress. And because our clients and their teams come from a wide range of backgrounds, you can thoughtfully navigate issues related to racial and gender (and other) diversity, equity, and inclusion and bring a deep commitment to advancing these values.
Business development : You are comfortable pitching TMC services to potential educational equity clients. You can negotiate pricing and contracts for your coaching services, understanding how to navigate supporting high-priority clients who might need additional assistance.
We are more interested in these four qualities than in any particular type of experience. However, because you will need to be able to relate as a peer to school leaders and other senior leaders in the education sector, you will also presumably bring experience yourself having operated as a principal/building leader or managed senior level people in a school system or network of schools. We know that there are other types of senior educational equity leaders who may not have run a school, but they could be successful in this role (e.g. Chief Operating Officers, Chief Financial Officers, Managing Directors of Program). Please apply!
Finally, you need to fit well with our culture, which we like to think combines excellence with heart (and a keen sense of humor helps).
What Else You Should Know
Our coaching roles comes in two varieties – a more junior position (Vice President) and a more senior position (Partner), with the difference between the two being the executive experience you bring and the type of clients with whom you work.
Our most urgent current need, given our current client demand and staff makeup, is for a Partner-level coach based anywhere in the United States.
This position is full-time and requires moderate travel 1 – 4 days per month).
The full-time salary range for VP roles is between $91,800 to $128,520, and between $122,400 to $166,400 for Partners, with exact salary depending on experience and new staff rarely starting at the top of the range.
We also offer excellent benefits, including an additional 5% employer contribution to your retirement fund with no match required.
We are an equal opportunity employer, are committed to racial equity and social justice, and we make a particular effort to recruit people of color to apply for open positions.

Xavier University is seeking a dynamic, collaborative, results-focused leader to serve as Director of Career Development. The Director will promote the value of personal, academic, and career planning to the University community. The Director will bolster Xavier support systems designed to help students determine who they are in this academic environment, what they want to accomplish, and how to be successful upon graduation. They will pay close attention to the psycho-social and professional development of students and collaborate with faculty, staff, employers, mentors, and alumni to do so.

DataKind is looking for a Director, Global Volunteers !
Location
This is an onsite opportunity located in DataKind’s Brooklyn, NY headquarters.
About DataKind
DataKind is a global nonprofit dedicated to harnessing the power of data science and artificial intelligence (AI) in the service of humanity. Named one of Fast Company's 2017 top 10 innovative nonprofits, DataKind teams talented pro bono experts from academia and industry with visionary change makers to collaboratively design innovative solutions to tough social challenges. They help social organizations apply their data to predictive analytics, machine learning algorithms, and AI needs in a way that both increases impact and is sensitive to the ethical considerations they have.
They are 20,000+ strong: DataKind volunteers hail from almost every country across the world, representing a community of technologists and social change makers who believe in using data science and AI for a stronger planet and a more just and prosperous world.
They have served 300+ projects around the world: From using satellite imagery to measure crop yields to automating the fight against hate speech online, their volunteer community has shown up to support a range of humanitarian needs.
People are at the center of their process: The most advanced machine learning algorithms are useless if they’re not designed for real people’s problems. DataKind celebrates human-centered design principles that focus on the “why,” the “for whom,” and the “should we” long before they ever get going on the “what.”
“AI for Good” will only succeed if it’s “AI for All”: They will continue their work until all people and all communities can use digital technology for the outcomes they want to see. They support not just the tech communities of today, but anyone in any community who wants to lead in how data technologies serve their needs fairly.
The Next Phase
DataKind has been honored to work with social change organizations around the world to do over 300 projects these past eight years. Those projects have resulted in more effective NGOs, more funding for social change organizations, and more awareness of the power (and pitfalls) of data science and AI in the social sector. However, they have always known that they will not be able to combat all of the world’s looming challenges on the backs of individual, uncoordinated, short-term projects alone. Thanks to generous long-term support from the Rockefeller Foundation and the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, they are now focusing the DataKind network on issue areas, such as improving health outcomes through Community Health Workers or increasing financial inclusion. Over a period of five years, DataKind has been granted $20M to make this vision a reality and is looking for people to join them in this journey. You can read more about the new strategy here.
About the Opportunity
DataKind’s data scientist volunteers are the engine of what DataKind does, applying their expertise to assist high-impact, mission-driven organizations tackle the world’s biggest challenges. With hubs across the globe in San Francisco, DC, Bangalore, the UK, and Singapore, the Director, Global Volunteers sets the vision and strategy for engaging and supporting their worldwide volunteer community.
Reporting to the Chief Program Officer and managing Network Managers who offer direct support to chapters, the Director will create an environment in which volunteers can contribute in meaningful ways to DataKind’s partners, feel valued for their unique abilities, and reflect the diverse communities they represent. Ensuring that volunteers are trained and supported in their work, the Director will partner with the Center of Excellence and other Programs team staff to develop a best-in-class orientation and training program and build volunteer talent pipelines for data projects. In addition, the Director is charged with defining the strategy for the global chapter model, strategically recruiting new volunteers and chapter leaders, ensuring a clean volunteer database, and developing a taxonomy of volunteer roles and project pathways.
Ideal candidates have developed world-class volunteer engagement programs, have served as a network leader, and preferably have worked in international or volunteer contexts themselves.
What You’ll Do
The Director, Global Volunteers is responsible for the following in addition to any other project as assigned by their manager:
Global Network Strategy and Design
Develop the strategy for, and codification of, the DataKind volunteer experience and journey.
Continue to refine and implement the strategy for DataKind’s volunteer chapter network.

Volunteer Recruitment and Retention
Develop a strategy for, and building of, long-term partnerships which allow for volunteer recruitment, amplification of volunteers’ voices, and project promotion.
In collaboration with the Product team and chapter leaders, develop an effective volunteer engagement strategy that supports the diversity, health, and satisfaction of the volunteer base (as evidenced by regularly administered surveys).
Create clear ways for the global DataKind community to communicate with one another, share learnings, and build relationships as fellow members of the Data and AI for Good movement.
Develop a clear and inclusive volunteer journey that makes it easy for new members to engage, find roles that fit their needs, and engage on projects.
Chapter Operations, Governance, and Support
Ensure all chapters operate under the fiscal, risk, and compliance standards set forth by the Operations Team.

You understand how to develop a strong organizational culture through facilitative leadership and have experience in developing a strong volunteer workforce across several countries/continents. You demonstrate this belief in the ways you interact with volunteers and stakeholders, harness and focus team energy, and communicate with integrity in your day-to-day work. You share DataKind’s values of humility, transparency, diversity, equity, inclusion, thoughtfulness, expertise, and approachability. Your passion for these values is contagious and drives organizational culture.
A volunteer and network workforce expert. Having worked in contexts with a global volunteer workforce, you understand the unique interplay between staff and volunteers and how to create opportunities for them to meaningfully contribute their skills. This experience allows you to understand how all of the pieces of the volunteer lifecycle fit together and which systems will support the ongoing operations of DataKind.

You see volunteer engagement as a way to both build intercultural understanding for and promote ongoing learning exchange between DataKind and its volunteers.
A systems thinker and people person. You love chatting with people just as much as you love creating process and systems to help them do their best work. People want to work for you. You are used to leading a team but also don’t mind rolling up your sleeves to get in the weeds when necessary. You are a natural at building rapport and have a knack for relationship management.
An experienced, collaborative manager . You have experience managing teams in either the volunteer, nonprofit, or tech spaces (or perhaps all three). You’re comfortable taking complex problems down to bite-sized deliverables, and you are exceptional at keeping teams on task to deliver great work on time. You identify problems early and are proactive about working with colleagues to create solutions.
How You’ll be Measured
At the end of year one, the Director will have:
Developed and implemented a global volunteer engagement strategy in concert with the senior leadership and Executive teams.
Launched at least one chapter in accordance with the newly-implemented strategy.

Flexibility in your working schedule. This includes things like working from home, leaving early to care for kids, coming in late to walk your dog, etc. This also means that you have unlimited PTO.
Access to a generous health plan. They pay 100% of medical, vision and dental benefits for employees and contribute partially for spouse/kids/family members.
Support to plan for your future. They offer a 401(k) match up to 5%.
