The National Council for Research on Women in New York, New York is undergoing great growth, and has hired the Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group to assist them as they expand their senior staff with this search.
National Council for Research on Women:
In societies across the country and around the world women still do not experience full and equal participation, without which children, families, and communities suffer, and half the world’s talents are squandered. While significant progress has been made, there is much more to do, and information and research are needed to understand unmet needs or injustices and drive resolutions forward. For 25 years, the National Council for Research on Women has helped shape the future for women and girls: it is a network of more than 100 leading U.S. research, advocacy, and policy centers with a growing global reach and more than 2,000 top-level researchers. The Council harnesses the resources of its network to ensure fully informed debate, policies, and practices to build a more inclusive and equitable world for women and girls.
The key to the Council’s past success and future growth has been highly-focused, accessible, timely research delivered through rapid-response communications campaigns, an informative website, and an active and informed network. As it grows, the Council now looks to hire senior level staff members to continue its groundbreaking work.
Communications Director
The Council’s first Communications Director will be expected to conceive, develop and implement a communications vision and plan for the organization that will increase awareness of the Council, solidify its role as a leader in women’s research, and contribute to reframing debate through a gender lens. Already poised for success, the Council needs a seasoned communications professional who can continue to build the Council’s role as a thought leader in the field of women’s research and offer effective multi-media, high-impact strategies that contribute to the achievement of overall organizational goals. S/he will be expected to work with the distinguished members of the Corporate Circle, Presidents’ Circle, and Council Members to implement an integrated national communications strategy that encompasses strong media strategies, targeted outreach to key audiences, strategic partnerships, online web activities, and marketing/branding, and ensure that all materials produced reflect Council values, commitment to quality, and standards.
