Manager, Internal Operations

Praxis began in 2011 with a desire to support and equip Christian entrepreneurs and has grown steadily into a 35+ person, NY-centric team advancing the redemptive quests of founders, funders, and innovators motivated by their faith to address the major issues of our time. As a $15M+/year nonprofit with ambitious growth plans, we're expanding our venture-building work globally, organizing around the major issues of our time, and building media and more to activate the redemptive potential of Christians around the world.

We see our team as the first carriers of the mission, building an organization that is great to work at, excellent in its craft, and redemptive in its finances as well as its programs.

This role reports to Sedona Vickers, the Director, Finance & Operations  the Manager, Internal Operations, you are part of the operational engine running behind the scenes of a global, mission-driven organization. Praxis is a lean, high-trust team doing ambitious work across multiple continents, and the finance & internal operations function helps make sure the foundation is solid and every checklist is complete, so the mission can go forward.

This role sits at the intersection of operations, people, finance, and systems. You’ll work with a team of leaders who see these functions as a way to live out redemptive operations. When these domains are well-maintained, the whole organization moves faster and is able to accomplish more in pursuit of awakening redemptive imagination in the world. You play a key role in that by owning execution with consistency, building systems that outlast any single process, and catching the things before anyone else notices they are falling.

You'll split your time between supporting the Director, Finance & Operations (~70%) and the Chief of Staff (~30%). On the operations side, that means making sure daily and weekly financial tasks are happening on time, serving as the point of contact for our accounting firm, and project managing the annual budgeting process. You'll also own project management for our annual performance review cycle, new hire onboarding, and hiring logistics — the kind of work where your organizational instincts directly shape how new team members experience Praxis from day one.

We're looking for someone who gets genuinely excited about a well-built system and finds real satisfaction in making complex things run smoothly and quietly. Your friends probably describe you as the one who always follows through on a plan. If you're a detail-oriented, proactive operator who wants to do meaningful work at a growing organization this role was made for you.
