Resilient Strategies LLC (RS)

Resilient Strategies LLC is an organization that provides the backend finance, administrative, and HR service functions for our Network Partners. Resilient Strategies is a growing organization that currently supports multiple organizations working across strategies that include community organizing, direct service, policy advocacy and capacity building.

The LLC Finance Manager is the person making sure that money moves accurately and on time between our network partners, so that resources actually reach the people doing the frontline work of building power.

We're looking for someone who sees precision and integrity in the numbers as its own form of solidarity with the organizers and communities we support.

The LLC Finance Manager will manage the accounting for our LLC entities.
