The New Sector Summer Fellows Program: Job Description

The New Sector Summer Fellows program gives undergraduates the opportunity to
manage a strategic initiative for a nonprofit organization.

Each summer we recruit a class of approximately 40 Fellows to help Boston-area
nonprofit organizations build their capacity to serve their constituents. The
program begins with an intensive training curriculum that will introduce
Fellows to the nonprofit sector as well as help them develop skills that will
apply to a career in any sector. Topics include our consultant toolkit,
nonprofit finance, Theory of Change, and effective data presentation.

After training, Fellows work fulltime with their designated host site to carry
out their project plan. New Sector pre-screens and scopes each project to
ensure that it will have a substantial community impact while providing the
Fellow with an opportunity to develop his or her professional skills. These
projects help nonprofits replicate their programs, measure their impact,
strengthen their operating procedures, or expand their stakeholder base.

In addition to the initial training, the Fellows program offers social
gatherings, workshops and supplemental trainings on a weekly basis throughout
the summer. These events help our Fellows continue to hone their skills and to
build a unique bond with their Fellows class.

Finally, each Fellow is matched with a mentor from one of our partner consulting
firms. This mentor provides guidance and advice throughout the summer. For more
information about the program, please visit our website:
www.newsector.org/programs/fellows.php. Our application deadline is March 1,
2007, and the program runs from May 30 to August 15.

New Sector Alliance actively seeks to build a Fellows class with a broad range
of backgrounds and experiences, representing a diversity of race, color,
ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, secular preference, political
affiliation, socioeconomic status, and ancestry. Further, we encourage
individuals with disabilities to apply to the program and can provide
reasonable accommodations for those individuals upon request. For additional
assistance please contact Carter Romansky at 617 454 8049 or

New Sector?s Residency in Social Enterprise (RISE): Job Description

New Sector's Residency in Social Enterprise (RISE) gives recent college
graduates the opportunity to lead a strategic initiative for a nonprofit
organization over the course of one year. People who join our Residency develop
leadership and management skills that cut across sectors and that support a
career focused on positive social impact.

Each year we recruit 20 outstanding college seniors and recent graduates to join
our team as New Sector Residents. Through our program, our Residents spend one
year working with one of our nonprofit clients to help replicate its programs,
measure its impact, strengthen its operating procedures, or expand its
stakeholder base. All of the projects our Residents work on have been
pre-screened and scoped by New Sector's staff to ensure a substantive,
enriching experience. Additionally, we go to great lengths to ensure that each
Resident has the right mix of independence and support throughout the year to
achieve the greatest possible professional development.

In addition to support provided by New Sector's internal staff, our Residents
receive guidance from professional consultants at firms including McKinsey and
Company, Bain and Company, Accenture, Mercer, Boston Consulting Group, and
Bridgespan. These individuals deliver workshops and provide real-time guidance
in areas such as project management, persuasive communication skills,
quantitative analysis, and career development. Through our training program,
Residents gain a holistic understanding of the social sector and the bridges
that connect it with the private sector.

Past New Sector program participants have used their experience to continue to
effect positive social change in both the private sector and the nonprofit
sector. Our alumni work for top strategy consulting firms, start and run
nonprofit organizations, and pursue graduate work in a diversity of academic
areas.

Compensation, which will include salary, an education award, health care
benefits, and local travel stipend (in the form of a subway/bus pass), will
total approximately $30,000.

For more information, see our website:

rolling basis beginning February 1, 2007. The program begins on September 5,
2007 and runs through the following August.
