Nonprofit Management Instructor

Nonprofit Management Instructor and Leadership Mentor

EcoServants®, a 501(c)(3) environmental nonprofit, is seeking volunteer Nonprofit Management Instructors to mentor interns interested in nonprofit administration, organizational leadership, and mission-driven operations. Our Nonprofit Management interns gain practical experience with volunteer coordination, organizational processes, communication, program support, and operational improvement.

Volunteer Responsibilities

• Mentor interns in nonprofit management principles, administrative procedures, and professional communication.
• Help interns understand volunteer engagement, workflow coordination, program accountability, and organizational effectiveness.
• Review management-related assignments and submitted work.
• Provide constructive feedback that encourages leadership development and professional growth.
• Support ethical decision-making, documentation practices, and responsible nonprofit operations.
• Refer policy decisions and sensitive management matters to authorized EcoServants® leadership.

How EcoServants® Operates

EcoServants® is a fully volunteer-powered, 501(c)(3) environmental nonprofit. Our remote interns typically join a four-month program and complete practical, published assignments that contribute to real organizational, educational, and conservation-related projects. Work is organized through our EcoServants® Intern Portal and assignment-based Kanban board, where interns review requirements, claim appropriate assignments, submit deliverables, and receive feedback.

Your Instructor Portal & Team Support

Approved Instructors receive their own secure Instructor account and access to the EcoServants® Instructor Portal (ecoservantsproject.org/instructors-portal/). The portal supports instructor onboarding and program-focused workflows. Instructors can support one program or an approved combination of programs, participate in relevant EcoServants® Team Chats, answer questions, and review submissions against the written assignment requirements.

You are not expected to develop an entire curriculum or teach scheduled classes. Most mentorship is flexible and asynchronous: clarify an assignment, suggest improvements, provide respectful and actionable review feedback, and coordinate with nonprofit managers when a decision requires management approval.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in nonprofit leadership, business administration, organizational management, volunteer coordination, human resources, or related disciplines.

Commitment and Impact

This is a flexible, remote, unpaid volunteer opportunity. Your experience will help emerging nonprofit professionals develop the skills needed to coordinate people, manage projects, and support meaningful community initiatives. Help prepare future nonprofit leaders while supporting a growing environmental service organization.

Instructor onboarding and access are provided to approved volunteers. This is an unpaid, remote volunteer role with flexible participation.
