The future of social justice work is multi-entity. Over the last four years, New Left Accelerator (NLA), our 501(c)(4) and The Capacity Shop (TCS), our separate but affiliated 501(c)(3), have become leading capacity-building providers serving the complex needs of multi-entity organizations.
Today’s most effective power-building organizations are using multi-entity structures – more than 501(c)3s, often 501(C)(4)s, PACs, for-profit corporate structures – to build power, increase their impact, and win. As progressive movements and state ecosystems scale this approach, the need for specialized support grows.We meet this growing need by collaborating with multi-entity experts to develop the financial, operational, and compliance infrastructure that enables organizations to do bold work safely. To learn more about our values and approach to this work, read our core values and Theory of Change.
NLA runs three technical assistance programs that bring leading multi-entity experts and innovative leaders together to rethink their strategy, structure and capacity so they can maximize impact and do bold work in compliance with the law.
TCS is building the movement's first operations focused resource center and knowledge hub, which will set new standards for the growing field of multi-entity operations and democratize access to operations-focused training, tools and resources.
The Role
Reporting to the Managing Director of Programs, the Senior Coaching Director is a pivotal new role at NLA at the forefront of progressive movement infrastructure. This role will work closely with our Program team and lead our network of Lead Coaches and Subject Matter Leads (SMLs), collectively building capacity for the organizations we support. This work is critical to the progressive ecosystem now more than ever.
This position is responsible for the recruitment, vetting, training, and regular coaching of our Lead Coach team as well as overseeing alignment between Program goals and the delivery of high-quality coaching. In this role, you’ll contribute to the unique opportunity to shape the future of movement infrastructure while having a crucial impact on progressive power-building work across the country.
