The successful candidate will be tasked with expanding the company's visibility, credibility, and influence within the corporate social responsibility (CSR) and social impact ecosystem. This pivotal role requires a blend of strategic business development, industry networking, thought leadership, and creative audience engagement. The Chief Impact Officer will be responsible for developing and executing a partnership strategy, identifying and cultivating high-impact strategic relationships, and serving as a public-facing representative and spokesperson for the company.

An entrepreneurial spirit, a passion for the mission, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced startup environment are also key requirements.
