Pro Bono Account Directors Needed

Taproot Account Directors lead teams of 5-6 pro bono consultants. The Account Director’s role is to staff the team, manage relationships, and keep a bird’s-eye view of the project. The Account Director also checks closely with a Taproot Program Manager to track progress and resolve challenges to ensure the successful completion of each project.

• Has 10 years of experience in Human Resources (i.e., staff development, recruitment, performance management)
• Has managed leadership teams and led successful change efforts
• Can negotiate executive or board-level relationships
• Has Director, VP, or Partner-level experience

A Service Grant project is designed to work around your schedule and requires a 3-5 hour commitment each week over the course of approximately 6 months. You can also provide your expertise directly through our online forums--do some micro-bono in your spare time!

You’ll:

• Meet a tremendous group of like-minded professionals
• Deepen your connection with your community
• Keep your skills sharp by applying them in the nonprofit sector
