Position Description

Lenox Hill Neighborhood House, widely recognized as one of New York’s premier human services providers, is a 120-year-old settlement house that provides an extensive array of effective and integrated services – social, educational, legal, health, housing, mental health, nutritional, and fitness – which significantly improve the lives of 20,000 people in need each year, ages 3 to 103, on the East Side of Manhattan. Our clients include older adults, homeless and formerly homeless adults, children and families, recent immigrants, disabled persons, adult learners, and thousands more. We pride ourselves on our commitment to achieving an ongoing, organizational culture of excellence – programmatically, operationally, and fiscally – and to being the best nonprofit in New York.
The Neighborhood House is now working to significantly expand our programs, organizational capacity, interconnectivity, and impact through new partnerships and seeks a Research and Partnership Manager to lead this effort. The Research and Partnership Manager will work at our main building located on East 70th Street on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Working across the organization, with both executive and program staff, the Research and Partnership Manager will research and identify new partnership opportunities, form relationships, and develop and implement supplemental programs with academic, nonprofit, government, and corporate partners.
