You will manage all aspects of the Amal Career-Prep Fellowship batches from start to end (3 months for the Fellowship and beyond that for ongoing support). You will be the primary session facilitator, adding your own flavor to the Amal Career-Prep Fellowship curriculum (overview here), providing detailed feedback to Fellows on their experiential learning projects, supporting them in their job applications and interview preparation, and providing them one-on-one career counselling to help them progress towards their professional goals and grow and develop as individuals.
You will work alongside a Program Associate to create a high-touch and rich learning experience for your Fellows. Guided by a Cluster Manager, you will ensure your Fellowship team does what it takes to give the Fellows the support they need. You’ll also be responsible for the growth and development of your Program Associate, who is typically a recent college graduate and an alumni of the Amal Fellowship.
In the time between semesters, you will be working collaboratively with the rest of the Amal team to help identify, motivate and select the next cohort of Amal Fellows. You’ll be expected to design and implement workshops and info-sessions at universities, develop relationships with new university partners, lead teams of Amal Ambassadors in on-campus guerilla marketing, and conduct candidate interviews and orientation sessions - all with the mindset of continually improving the process to bring the most deserving and passionate Fellows into the program - those that will continue on a journey of growth and improvement beyond the program and become agents of change themselves.
We believe that leadership is everyone’s business - those that take this principle to heart will see themselves excelling at Amal. In addition to core Fellowship responsibilities, you will be expected to take initiatives to work on and lead diverse and cross-functional projects across the organization, including in HR, Marketing, Operations, Curriculum, Alumni Management, Volunteer Coordination, etc.
