iMentor builds mentoring relationships that empower students from low-income communities to graduate high school, succeed in college, and achieve their ambitions. iMentor partners with public schools and matches every student in participating grades with a college-educated mentor. Mentors commit a minimum of 3 years to a single student, after which they have the option to extend the relationship through college completion. Mentors and students work together through the iMentor curriculum, which is designed around 4 core outcomes: developing strong personal relationships between mentors and students, nurturing each student’s college aspiration, developing the non-cognitive skills critical to success in college, and successfully navigating the college exploration, application, financial aid, and transition process. Since iMentor’s founding in 1999 in NYC, the organization has matched more than 15,000 students with mentors. iMentor is currently serving 3,500 students in NYC and recently launched programs in Chicago and the Bay Area. iMentor will expand to a fourth region by 2018.

iMentor has been recognized through funding by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the Lumina Foundation, the Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, and the Robin Hood Foundation, and is a subgrantee of the federal Social Innovation Fund. iMentor is one of the nation’s most innovative and quickly growing mentoring organizations. As a team, we are mission-focused, results-oriented, passionate and fun, and were named one of the Best Nonprofits to Work For by Opportunity Knocks and The Nonprofit Times.

iMentor is seeking a dynamic professional to join our exciting national program to deepen new and existing partnerships with nonprofit organizations. The Partnership Manager (PM) ensures that organizations who have signed on to use iMentor’s best practices and technology tools in their own programs are able to deliver high impact mentoring programs with measurable results. Partner Programs is growing to work with 15 organizations, and currently serves over 2,600 mentor-mentee pairs.

Reporting to the Director of Partner Programs, the Partnership Manager will play a key role in realizing the broad impact of iMentor, collaborating with colleagues to support organizations and participants around the country. PMs consult, coach and advise organizations on program design, implementation, and evaluation, training partners with diverse learning styles both remotely as well as in-person.

The ideal candidate will have significant experience in client management and be excited about combining the expertise and talents of our local partners with the proven innovations and best practices of the iMentor model. This individual will be forward thinking, beyond tech savvy, a strong communicator and presenter.
