Net Impact Careers
 
As Net Impact members, we are unified in our common goal of delivering positive social impact via the business arena. However, the roles and functions we can assume as professionals to achieve this goal can vary greatly across industries, sectors and functions. While there is no traditional career path for “Social Impact” roles, here are some examples of roles and functions most often pursued by Net Impact members:
 
  • Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
  • Sustainability
  • Social Marketing
  • Social Entrepreneurship
  • International/Emerging Markets Development
  • Foundations
  • Nonprofit/Public Management
  • Microfinance
  • “Mainstream” social impact positions
