    Descrição

    The Center for Family Life (CFL), a neighborhood-based family and social services organization in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, is looking for a dynamic and mission-driven Small Business Developer to join our team. At CFL, we are dedicated to fostering positive outcomes for children, adults, and families through comprehensive services that make a lasting impact.

    Our Cooperative Development Program (CDP) is a nationally recognized leader in developing worker cooperatives in low-income communities. Since 2006, we have launched 25 worker-owned cooperatives, supported over 540 worker-owners, and trained 50+ organizations in cooperative development. Together, we’re creating a new economy where workers are at the heart of the system.

    We’re looking for you—a bilingual (Spanish-English) professional eager to make a difference by supporting women, fostering economic equity, and shaping thriving small businesses.

    • Design and lead engaging workshops to strengthen business governance and operations.
    • Mediate and support resolution of conflicts within cooperative groups.

    • Educators at heart: Familiar with popular education methods for teaching business skills to adults.
    • Socially conscious: Committed to social justice and economic empowerment, particularly for low-income women.

    Preferred qualifications include a bachelor’s degree in a relevant field (e.g., Business Administration, Accounting, Community Development) and at least three years of professional experience. An advanced degree or additional technical expertise is a bonus!
