Job description

Company Description

Founded in 2006, Shishur Sevay - India is a home for orphan girls at risk, including some with profound disabilities. Our mission is to protect orphaned and abandoned girls by providing a safe environment where they will be sheltered, nurtured and educated. We strive to develop each child's education and opportunities in ways that build competence, confidence, and independence. Shishur Sevay serves as a visionary model of non-institutional care for orphan children. The girls who originally came to Shishur Sevay now run a free inclusive playschool for the poor in the community. And because of our beginnings, inclusion has become our mindset. We are pioneers in making it happen, taking the journey from thought to implementation.

Shishur Sevay is undergoing a transition. Dr. Michelle Harrison (81 yrs), the founder and current director will be moving off the front line, the position she has held since the beginning. She will remain on the Board, but her duties are being transferred to a new team being formed under her supervision. She always said that Founders often make two mistakes. One is to think they will live forever, and the other is to expand beyond their means.Neither of these is true at Shishur Sevay.

Role Description

This is a full-time on-site role as a Leadership Position in Operations, Communications, and Programming located in Kolkata. Day-to-day tasks will vary based on the specific position, but responsibilities are tailored to managing and directing the operations, programs, and communications functions of Shishur Sevay.
