Entrepreneurship in the territories: is it the right time?
TINTA (The Invisible Thread) is a non-profit organisation founded in 2020 in France. TINTA seeks to strengthen capacities, foster connections and increase the visibility of Indigenous Peoples, traditional and local community organisations (IPLCs). More specifically, we aim to empower IPLC organisations and their leaders to fight for social justice and the protection of nature. TINTA currently consists of a ten-person team, with a remote working culture which enables us to easily work with colleagues from around the world.
We are seeking a part-time People, Culture and Talent Officer with a proclivity towards human resources management. This is an ideal opportunity for professionals who have led small-midsize Culture & Talent teams in startups and NGOs through periods of rapid growth. This person should be comfortable working fully remotely, in a global organisation, across time zones, languages and cultures.
This is a new position in a young and mission-driven organisation. We are looking for someone with the capacity to take the lead, to think strategically, and who is able to jump in and handle the paperwork. We are looking for a solutions-based mindset, with excellent communication skills and an ability to nimbly identify and address needs.
This candidate should be deeply committed to the mission and values of the organisation, and to ensuring that all practices are rooted in principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion in a global sense.
