Senior Consultant & Program Manager Cooperations & Collective Impact (m/f/d)

Your new job

Our vision is an open, sustainable, and peaceful society in which doing good with impact guides joint action. To contribute to this, we have established PHINEO as a non-profit platform for strategic societal engagement.

Societal challenges can only be solved together today. That's why we work with companies, foundations, social enterprises, public institutions, and civil society organizations to strengthen cross-sectoral collaboration and achieve greater impact. For our team in Berlin, we are looking for an experienced personality who combines consulting, networking, and design skills as a Senior Consultant & Program Manager Cooperations & Collective Impact (m/f/d) as soon as possible.

Your tasks

• You will purposefully bring together actors from business, civil society, philanthropy, and the public sector to initiate collaborations with societal impact. For this, you will develop new forms of cross-sectoral cooperation. In parallel, you will shape and moderate established dialogue formats in analog and digital spaces.
• You will take on a central role in IMPACT COLLECTIVES, our new offering that will connect impact startups thematically with companies, investors, and other enablers from science, administration, and civil society, thereby driving structural change along the major societal challenges of our time.
• You will lead our Corporate Citizenship working group, strategically develop it, and attract new companies to participate. Together with representatives from business, civil society, and public authorities, you will design impulses for effective corporate social responsibility.
• You will conceptualize, acquire, and manage consulting and cooperation projects. For example, you will advise startups that want to know how to achieve more impact or find investors, or you will support collaborations between companies and nonprofits process-wise and content-wise.
• You will manage complex projects independently from conception through partner management to implementation and evaluation. The guiding principles for you will be the intended societal added value and an economically viable implementation.

In your work, you are naturally not on your own. Rather, you are part of a dedicated team that combines different competencies and perspectives.
What you bring with you

• You are passionately committed to societal transformation, sustainable business, and the collaboration of actors from different societal areas.
• You bring the energy, persuasiveness, and empathy needed to build trust and win people over for common goals. You can also inspire and activate even skeptical actors.
• You have consulting experience, ideally with startups, investors, or companies on strategy or organizational development issues. Therefore, you can conceptualize consulting processes, conduct them independently, and lead them to robust results.
• You have already built or intensively managed networks in the past, ideally involving actors from business and the startup scene. You can identify relevant actors promptly and connect them with our target groups. You have experience with multi-stakeholder processes or collective impact approaches. You are comfortable interacting with decision-makers at the corporate or management level.
• You have demonstrable experience in developing and acquiring partners, clients, or donors, as well as in independently managing complex projects.
