Community in Action is a grassroots non-profit non-governmental organization (NGO) located in one of Rio de Janeiro’s largest favela (slum) communities. Our mission is to offer vocational and cultural classes for students of all ages, as well as personal development opportunities for volunteers. The majority of NGOs in Rio offer outreach programs on a service model: slum inhabitants simply use the services others (who live outside the community) deem they need. We implemented a new approach, a new vision — one that fosters the possibility of long-term community change by including residents in the operation of the organization. Currently, slum residents staff the majority of human resource and administrative positions. These present and future community leaders are the volunteers, the teachers, and the administrative teams. This partnering of services, promoting activism and personal development, is founded on the belief that there is a balance and reciprocal relationship between a successful NGO and cooperative community.

After seven years of operating, we have made significant progress in the community where we are located. In January 2012, we will change our business model to begin placing volunteers from around the world in NGOs throughout the favela. This new business model will be in-line with the tourism growth in Rio de Janeiro over the next few years, leading to the 2014 World Cup and 2016 Olympics. WE NEED A MARKETING MANAGER TO HELP DEVELOP MARKETING CHANNELS TO RECRUIT VOLUTNEERS AND IMPLEMENT OUR FUTURE-STATE MODEL. It will require strategic communications planning, research, marketing design, and implementation support.

We are currently seeking a Full-Time Marketing Manager to begin in August, 2011 for a one year period (if you can only stay in Brazil for 6 months due to visa requirements, we can discuss during the interview process). ONLY A SMALL TRANSPORATION STIPEND WILL BE PROVIDED (more detail under salary below). Your duties will be carried out by working closely with the organization’s volunteers and founders.

RESPONSIBILITIES:

• Help formulate strategic communications plan for the NGO

• Prepare quarterly performance reports on achievements of goals and objectives

MARKETING SUUPORT

• Develop marketing materials and conduct marketing activities in the community and abroad

• Solicit contributions and help organize fundraising campaigns

• Research new marketing channels in the U.S. to recruit volutneers

COMMUNITY RELATIONS

• Write news stories for donors and outside stakeholders (Facebook maintenance / Constant Contact development)

• Update the Community in Action website with new information

• Provide organization linkage with other organizations

• B.A./B.S. Degree

• Two years full-time experience (minimum)

• Non-profit experience (required)

• Research and grant writing experience (a plus)

• Marketing experience (required)
