Social Sector Consulting

Mid Level

Redstone is intellectual, creative, and passionate about real-world problems. We partner with some of the world’s largest foundations, NGOs, and companies to help answer tough questions on education, health, economic opportunity, and the environment. Our clients and partners include the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Packard Foundation, and Feeding America, among others – all of whom share the ambition to make system-wide change. Redstone is also an independent division of Arabella Advisors.

POSITION SUMMARY

All consultants at Redstone play key roles on project teams. Building on a strong foundation of consulting or client services-based experience, Associates take on increasing responsibility in addressing our client’s challenges. Associates form hypotheses, perform analysis, lead brainstorming sessions, plan and conduct expert interviews, and craft insights and recommendations. As you continue to develop skills, you will lead larger pieces of the client engagement.

Managers oversee day-to-day team activities and run most client interactions. Managers are experienced staff that help lead projects and have developed strong consulting skills. As a Manager, you will provide overall project vision, develop and manage work plans, create client deliverables, structure analyses, and cultivate insights. In addition, mentoring and apprenticeship are vital parts of life at Redstone. Managers are responsible for the professional development and coaching of Analysts and Associates on the team. As Managers gain experience, they take greater ownership of client management and oversee projects with more complex dynamics.

REDSTONE CULTURE

Everyone at Redstone has a key role to play on project teams. Small teams of two to four allow you to work directly with clients and senior leaders right from the start. Our work environment is open and supportive, and the firm offers strong private-sector compensation packages. Redstone alumni have excelled at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, Google, and The Nature Conservancy, and have gone on to graduate programs at Stanford, Harvard, and Yale.

We bring a suite of strategic planning, design, and analytical tools to bear on complex social problems, and engage with our clients’ leadership and expertise to solve them. In New York City, Redstone facilitated a collaboration of the city’s top food assistance providers to help bring 10 million pounds of new food to neighborhoods where it’s needed most. In Costa Rica, the firm assisted the Linden Trust for Conservation and the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation in permanently preserving over 1 million acres of critical terrestrial and marine habitat. Redstone also helped the International Planned Parenthood Federation double the number of annual services provided, reaching 137 million people, including some of the planet’s most disadvantaged and marginalized citizens.

We gather regularly to discuss current projects, share travel stories, and cultivate new ideas. The firm encourages professional development and will provide you with the formal training needed to grow professionally.

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
