Seeking applications for YPFP leadership positions

This article was written by YPFP member Joshua Marcuse.

Dear Colleagues,

Young Professionals in Foreign Policy is seeking applications for several volunteer positions to serve on the YPFP leadership team. In the last two years, YPFP has grown into a dynamic organization with close to 1,000 members; weekly meetings with influential foreign policy leaders and experts; a website with a blog and useful resources for jobs, events, and articles by members; a vibrant branch in London; and a rapidly growing public service program. This exciting progress has only been possible because of the talented and dedicated volunteers in YPFP's leadership.

In addition to this progress, further internal development and new staff are crucial to meeting the growing demands of the organization. We are reaching out to you to find the best people to join our team and help YPFP become the premier organization of future foreign policy leaders.

Detailed descriptions of the available positions (along with instructions on how to apply for them) are available on this website. Please follow the links below to navigate to them. Please apply for as many positions as interest you, and note that the time commitment, expectations and responsibilities for different roles vary considerably. Selection decisions will be made by the YPFP Board of Directors, in consultation with other YPFP leaders; most positions will require an interview(s). Please share these announcements with others you think would be interested and qualified. All positions – while rewarding – are unpaid.

This is a critical moment in YPFP's development, and I am deeply gratified that we have such a deep and rich talent pool to draw on. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any inquiries about specific roles or volunteering in general. Thank you for your support to YPFP. I hope to see you on Monday.

Sincerely,

Joshua Marcuse
President, YPFP
