About Beth Grupp Associates
Beth Grupp Associates (BGA) is a full service fundraising and capacity building firm based in Washington, D.C. As the sole founder and proprietor, Beth Grupp handles a small, select number of clients including many nationally recognized organizations and progressive leaders.
At the heart of BGA's work is a passion for supporting the progressive community by growing organizational capacity for the long term. We have a deep commitment to developing an organization's internal capabilities and are most fulfilled by our work when we build an organization up to the point where it can truly stand on its own. This means that BGA places a high priority on mentoring staff, and supporting organizational leadership. Our goal is to develop real and lasting organizational capacity that enables the organization to be sustainable for years to come.
About the Position
The Executive Assistant/Project Manager provides high-level executive support to the President and senior consultants of BGA. We are a small staff of less than five so this position would engage with every aspect of our work. The Executive Assistant/Project Manager is responsible for ensuring an outstanding experience for BGA clients by supporting the President, providing prompt attention to client requests, and overseeing delivery of services and materials.
BGA works almost exclusively in the progressive community and the successful candidate will share our commitment to progressive values and bring a sense of joy to the work. We all work virtually and the successful candidate will be able to manage his/her time independently and be exceptionally self-motivated.
The ideal candidate is also highly organized, manages up effectively, and has impeccable attention to detail. We cannot stress enough how much attention to detail matters here. The successful candidate will appreciate and enjoy the fast-paced nature of our work and of working at the speed of clients who are in the national spotlight.
We are also committed to mentoring and the ideal candidate would also have an interest in fundraising and in learning fundraising as a skill set. While this is a mid-level position, we have a strong interest in developing our staff and a talented individual would be provided with many opportunities for growth.
