About Us

The Taproot
Foundation is a volunteer organization that builds teams of marketing and
creative services, strategy management, human resources, and information
technology professionals to work on projects for local nonprofits. Oversee
a team of highly skilled professionals who are doing pro bono work to help a
local nonprofit increase its impact while gaining visibility in the nonprofit
sector.

As a Taproot
Foundation volunteer, you will have the chance to work with a local nonprofit
organization specializing in one of the following issue areas:

• Education
• Health
• Environment
• Social
  Services
• Arts

Taproot lets you "give what you
know" so that you can make the strongest impact on your local community
while networking and growing professionally. We are currently looking for experienced
consulting associates to join our award-winning pool of professional
volunteers.

Strategy
Associates Needed

The
Strategy Associate provides much of the data for a Strategy Management project,
and helps to create and structure necessary analysis. Strategy Associates spend
significant time in interviews and related assessment. They carry out research
and data collection, conduct complex quantitative, strategic, and financial
business analyses, and structure and package their findings; with a more senior
team member, they work to develop perspectives and insights for the client. A
successful Strategy Associate has at least two years of relevant business
experience working for a leading consulting firm on issues of management and
strategy, for a leading investment bank in equity analysis or M&A, or
performing similar functions for a corporation; or is a recent MBA
graduate.

Each Taproot Foundation project lasts 5 - 6 months with
volunteers committing 3 - 5 hours of their time each week, often virtually. This opportunity is flexible enough to work around the
schedule of your full-time job.
