About GreenPath

GreenPath Financial Wellness is a national nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering people to lead financially healthy lives. Through counseling, education, and innovative solutions, we help individuals and families improve their financial well-being. Our mission-driven culture values collaboration, empathy, inclusion, and continuous improvement.

Help turn strategy into connection, culture into action, and communication into belonging.

At GreenPath Financial Wellness, people come to work because they want their work to mean something — and because they want to do it in a culture that’s kind, collaborative, and real. Employees describe GreenPath as a place where people genuinely care about clients’ wellbeing and support one another with flexibility, learning, and a mission-driven heart.

Now we’re looking for an Organizational Development & Internal Communications Specialist (OD Focus) to help us connect the dots: leadership ↔ teams, strategy ↔ day-to-day, change ↔ clarity, and culture ↔ consistent actions.

If you love storytelling with purpose, facilitating moments that unlock insight, and designing engagement that people actually want to participate in—keep reading.

What You’ll Do (a.k.a. Your Superpowers in Action)

1) Bring Organizational Development (OD) to the real world

• You’ll go beyond content creation and into the OD work of helping teams function better.
• Facilitate workshops, focus groups, listening sessions, and team effectiveness conversations.
• Diagnose organizational needs and recommend interventions (and then actually make them happen).
• Support change management initiatives with messaging that’s consistent, transparent, and steady—especially during shifts like tech rollouts, restructures, or strategic evolution.

2) Design engagement that feels true to who we are

GreenPath employees talk about a culture where people are caring, supportive, and mission-driven — you’ll help scale what’s special while helping us evolve where needed.

• In partnership with Talent leaders design and execute engagement initiatives that reinforce culture, values, inclusion, and recognition (not cheesy… meaningful).
• Partner with HR (Employee Experience) on employee engagement survey cycles: analysis, feedback sessions, and action planning.
• In collaboration with our professional development strategy designer create experiences that support professional growth and employee connection—two themes employees explicitly value here.

3) Build internal communications that people actually read

You’ll design and run a modern internal communications approach that strengthens connection, alignment, and trust.

• Develop and implement a comprehensive internal communications strategy aligned to organizational engagement goals and values.
• Create and distribute internal communications focused on driving culture and connection across channels: newsletters, intranet updates, leadership messages, video scripts, and more.
• Partner with senior leaders on town halls, retreat’s, and executive storytelling—helping leaders communicate with clarity and humanity.
• Track engagement and feedback (email open rates, intranet analytics, survey insights) and continuously improve what’s working.

4) Strengthen “how we work together”

GreenPath’s Employee Handbook emphasizes respect, civility, collaboration, constructive coaching, and continuous learning—this role helps bring those expectations to life through communication and shared experiences.

• Build relationships across teams and levels—trusted connector, not bottleneck.
• Promote transparency and two-way feedback so employee voices are heard and acted on.
• Help leaders model the culture (not just talk about it).

What Success Looks Like

By 6–12 months, we’d expect you to be able to say:

• “Employees understand the why behind decisions and feel less whiplash during change.”
• “Engagement initiatives feel meaningful, inclusive, and well-designed—not performative.”
• “Leadership communication sounds more human, consistent, and aligned.”
• “We can measure what’s landing and adapt quickly.”

What You Bring

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Organizational Development, Communications, HR, Psychology, or related field.
• 5+ years experience in OD/culture focused work required.
• 5+ years internal communications, employee engagement experience preferred.

Skills

• Strategic storytelling: You can translate complex strategy into clear, engaging narratives people remember.
• OD & facilitation: You can facilitate groups, read the room, and help teams move from “talking about it” to “doing something about it.”
• Tools & tech: Comfort with platforms like SharePoint, CoPilot and Teams, plus creative tools like Canva (or similar).
• Data + insight: You can use survey tools (e.g., Qualtrics) and analytics to find the signal, not just the noise.

Attributes

• High EQ, strong instincts, and the ability to influence across levels without relying on authority.
• A bias toward action and a commitment to listening.
• Comfort navigating ambiguity (because “culture work” is never one-size-fits-all).

Bonus Points If You…

• Have experience with culture evolution efforts, engagement research, or organizational health diagnostics.
• Love turning “leadership speak” into language people actually use.
• Can build a communication rhythm that keeps people informed without flooding inboxes.

Why GreenPath (aka the stuff people feel here)

Employees describe GreenPath as a place where:

• The mission matters and makes a difference in people’s lives.
• The culture is caring, kind, and supportive—toward clients and coworkers.
• Flexibility and work-life support are real—and valued.
• Learning, growth, and collaboration show up in the day-to-day experience.

This role is for someone who wants to protect what’s special while helping us grow with intention.

How to Apply

Submit your resume and (optional but encouraged) one example of:

• an engagement initiative you designed/facilitated, including outcomes, or
• an internal communication you wrote (newsletter, leader message, campaign, etc.)

In your cover note, answer this one question:

“What’s the best internal communication you’ve ever seen—and why did it work?”
