About the role

At Partners for Progress, our volunteers are the heartbeat of our mission. Whether you're walking alongside a rider, caring for our horses, or helping behind the scenes at events, your time, energy, and compassion create life-changing opportunities for individuals with physical, mental, and emotional challenges. Join us on Saturday, October 3, 2026 from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM and learn the skills you'll need to help our riders and care for our herd. To sign up, please email volunteer@partnersforprogressnfp.org and let us know you want to join in the fun!

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
