About the Role
We are looking for an Associate Partnerships (Corporate & Civil Society) to join our More in Common Germany team in Berlin as soon as possible. This is a full-time position (80-100%) for someone eager to work at the intersection of business and society, translating our research findings into practical learning and dissemination formats for corporations and civil society. The position is initially limited to two years, with the prospect of long-term collaboration.
About Us
More in Common is a non-profit organization with teams in Germany, the USA, the UK, France, Poland, Spain, and Brazil working to strengthen social cohesion. The name of our organization reflects our vision: we aim to contribute to a resilient and inclusive society where people see that what connects them is more than what divides them. Our goal is a society capable of responding to societal changes and maintaining its ability to compromise and resolve conflicts.
In Germany, our work is positioned between research and practice: using socio-psychological opinion research, we strive to better understand societal dynamics and identify which issues influence cohesion. In offerings such as the "Workshop for Society & Future," we translate our research findings into practical dissemination and consulting formats for companies and civil society organizations. We learn from experiences and good approaches from practice, feed them back into new research, and share our findings with the broader public through digital tools and materials, our workshop magazine, as well as lectures, articles, and interviews. We continuously question, learn, and experiment with partners from administration/politics, business, civil society, and the media to determine which approaches are effective in strengthening social cohesion.
