Guest guest Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 Sri Mayapur Vikas Sangha Immediate Service Opportunity - Executive Director We are looking for a dynamic individual to head the Sri Mayapur Vikas Sangha, an NGO (non-government organization) working in Sri Mayapur, Nadia, WB in the area of sustainable development for the region. The successful candidate will be one with the following qualifications: * A deep interest in social work and sustainable development The most important qualification is a deep interest in the work we do in SMVS (you can read more about our work on our web site at www.SMVS.org). Even if someone has no experience but has a very deep interest and willingness to learn then such a person can still be successful. * Leadership This position calls for an ability to lead a diverse team of professionals and fieldworkers towards both the development of SMVS' broad vision and the practical goals of specific projects. * Management The primary responsibility of this position is to manage the progress of projects through establishing clear tasks and delegating activities throughout the project team. This requires supervision both within the office and out in the field where the project work is taking place. * Communications This position involves managing regular reports and communications through e-mail. Strong writing skills are very valuable. Familiarity with computers is essential. * Financial acumen A good knowledge of budgets, cash flows and accounting is important. There are members of the team to do the practical work in these areas but as Executive Director this person would have to make financial decisions that require a good understanding of financial management. * Education We are not overly concerned with educational qualifications although having a degree in a related field like social work would be a great plus. * A special note to devotees It is important for devotees involved in our organization to appreciate the ultimate spiritual benefits that our work leads to. Although our work does not provide the same sort of direct spiritual benefits as provided by harinam, prachar and prasadam we believe it contributes to the re-spiritualization of society by helping to create receptivity to spiritual leadership and practice. * Compensation The position comes with a salary commensurate with experience and qualifications as well as accommodations in Mayapur. Relocation expense is also possible for those coming from outside India. * Contact For more information or to apply for this position, email Pancharatna das at pancaratna.acbsp (AT) pamho (DOT) net Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
