Stand Together Ventures Lead Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America's boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country's biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society. We are building a community of entrepreneurial donor partners - founders, investors, and builders - who are accelerating Stand Together's boldest strategies through their time, talent, and resources. These are not passive donors. They are partners in transformation. The Stand Together Ventures Lead will guide and grow this network, someone with the experience and instincts to work cross-functionally with Stand Together's strategic leaders, matching our social change priorities to the Ventures community's comparative advantages and interests on a year-round basis. You'll help this network meet its potential and play a catalytic role in driving meaningful, lasting change. How You Will Contribute Build the Community: Inform the strategy to identify, recruit, and onboard high-potential business leaders and support their evolution into high-impact partners. Build a referral strategy that gives existing members the tools and confidence to refer their networks. Drive Partner Engagement: Build a durable partner engagement model that matches partners with our most transformational social change strategies. Enlist and support them in co-creating strategies, launching initiatives, and shaping Stand Together's future. Develop the feedback loops and relationship infrastructure that ensure no meaningful member activity goes unnoticed or uncapitalized. Enable Peer Leadership: Create the conditions and environments-events, salons, working groups-where Stand Together Ventures members connect, learn, and lead together. Collaborate Across Stand Together: Proactively partner with Development, Strategy, Policy, and Program teams to turn partner engagement into meaningful progress on Stand Together's priorities. You are the connective tissue between the Ventures community and the broader organization. Run the Engine: Develop and execute 12-to-24-month strategic priorities, financial goals, and holistic programmatic and events plans. Establish meeting cadences, follow-through and accountability. Partner across the Stand Together Development team to deepen partner relationships and accelerate ideal partner acquisitions through referrals and other networking mechanisms. Performance & Accountability: Define what success looks like for Ventures - across financial contribution, partner engagement and co-creation - and build a reporting and accountability framework that creates visibility into whether the platform is creating value. What You Will Bring Deep alignment with the Principles of Human Progress -especially self-actualization, mutual benefit, and bottom-up change. Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect. A builder's mindset: entrepreneurial, strategic, and biased toward action. Exceptional relationship instincts and ability to work across teams -able to earn trust, spot potential, and challenge high-performers to grow. Strong operational acumen coupled with a history of fostering accountability and ownership. Ability to connect vision to execution, with a track record of delivering results through networks and partnerships. Ability to shape the strategic direction of Ventures, while simultaneously, rolling up your sleeves to make sure the execution actually happens. Experience engaging communities, donor groups, or executive peer networks is a plus.
