Job Opportunities
The Fair Finance Fund works hard to walk the talk of our mission. We and our partners are committed to upholding the values of equity, diversity, and belonging, recognizing that this is an ongoing reflective practice as relevant to those we serve as to those who serve with us.
In pursuit of these values, we actively encourage applications from members of groups experiencing barriers to equity, including but not limited to members of the BIPOC and LGBTQ2S+ communities. Applicants are welcome to self-identify in their applications.
The Fair Finance Fund is committed to diversity, inclusivity, and equitability in the workplace and in lending activities. The Fund aims to achieve representation on Board, staff, and review committees, as well as in loan recipients, from diverse groups, regions, food and farm sectors, business types, stages of development and sizes, and not to discriminate on the basis of gender, race, ethnicity, national or regional origin, age, sexual orientation or identity, education or disability.
We are committed to a nondiscriminatory approach and provide equal opportunity for employment and advancement in all of our departments, programs, and worksites. We respect and value diverse life experiences and heritages and ensure that all voices are valued and heard.
Join Our Board of Directors
Fair Finance Fund is seeking two passionate and knowledgeable individuals to join our Board of Directors. We are looking for candidates with experience in sustainable agriculture, food systems, social finance, or community economic development to help guide the strategic direction of our organization.
The Board meets once a month, with some preparatory work and email communication between meetings, for a total commitment of approximately 2-3 hours per month. Board members have the additional opportunity to engage in external committees and other aspects of the Fair Finance Fund’s work if they have the time and interest. Board meetings are virtual, with occasional in-person gatherings.
We are particularly interested in applicants who share our commitment to equitable access to capital for local food and farm enterprises and who bring diverse perspectives to our Board. We strongly encourage applications from individuals who belong to equity-deserving groups and welcome self-identification in applications.
If you are dedicated to fostering a sustainable and just food economy and would like to join the Fair Finance Fund Board, please submit a resume and brief cover letter outlining your motivations and relevant experience to justin@fairfinancefund.org
