Third Sector New England, Inc. (TSNE) (tsne.org) is working to build to a more just, equitable society. We do this by providing capacity building services, consulting and training services, and operational support for hundreds of nonprofits, foundations, community-based groups, and others working for social change. We are partners and colleagues working collaboratively to support areas critical for organizations, including property management, leadership development and support, finance and accounting, human resources, and organizational development. We live by our values as an organization, and are committed to identifying, including, and valuing the unique skills, perspectives and knowledge of each member of our team.
About our Values:
As TSNE’s newest initiative, Shared Services provides a one-stop solution for nonprofits, particularly BIPOC-led and -serving, seeking a trusted, mission-aligned partner to help manage “back-office” organizational finances and operations, and “front-office” consulting in organizational development, strategy, and operations. In the second phase, Shared Services will expand with the development of cooperatively owned solution-based services, encompassing finance, HR, communications, evaluation and other services. The Portfolio Associate, Shared Services (PA) will play an integral role in ensuring these services are provided through a responsive and cohesive approach to Shared Services Organizations (SSOs) who select these additional services. The PA serves in an essential capacity as internal support as well as in an external facing role, as the first point of contact for prospective SSOs. The PA is responsible for supporting the Shared Services team with the overall coordination of services for a portfolio of SSOs. The PA will coordinate and provide services to each SSO as directed by the Senior Portfolio Manager (SPM). Such services include, but are not limited to, preparation of financial reports for review, grants administration, and involving other TSNE departments such legal, human resources, accounting, and consulting. This position will also hold a small portfolio of less complex SSOs as the entry level position of the organization.
Given that Shared Services is in its pilot phase, the role of the Portfolio Associate may shift and expand as the service implements additional offerings and scales.
