Director, Learning and Impact
RippleWorks
Rippleworks Foundation believes all people should have equitable access to the resources and opportunities to live life to the fullest. Our mission is to relentlessly focus on the needs of social ventures by providing practical support for impactful entrepreneurs and their teams so Ventures can improve more lives. Rippleworks’ programs has directly supported 250 ventures by running 275 projects in 60 countries, held workshops for over 1,000 leaders and has deployed $150 million in unrestricted funding to our Ventures.
We are a nearly 50 person team on a mission to help impactful ventures thrive. We strive to create the best possible workplace for purpose-driven professionals to make an outsized difference in the world: learning, growing and having fun together along the way. Diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) are at the center of our work. It’s a key part of our strategy and shows up every day in the way our team partners and collaborates. We seek individuals to join our team who are equally as committed.
Rippleworks has been named one of the World’s Most Innovative Companies (by Fast Company) and one of the world’s Best Workplaces for Innovators (by Fast Company and Accenture)
We support our portfolio of Ventures 3 ways:
Rippleworks Leaders Studio: Rippleworks designs and delivers practical, interactive, expert-led learning sessions designed specifically for social venture leaders who are seeking to learn and grow. Rippleworks partners with leading industry executives to run interactive, results-driven learning programs where social venture leaders gain the critical skills they need to deliver impact at scale.
Rippleworks Capital: Rippleworks provides hard-to-find capital required for scale (grants and investments in the $1M-$3M range) to 50+ ventures working in 80+ countries.
Our Commitment to Diversity Equity Inclusion & Belonging: We know inequities exist across the globe and are perpetuated by practices such as systemic racism and colonialism.
Rippleworks is taking an active role in disrupting these inequities that disadvantage historically excluded people. As such, diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging (DEIB) is integral to realizing this vision.
We are an equal opportunity employer and committed to improving diversity, equity, and inclusion at Rippleworks.
