Collaborates With: CEO, Project Manager, Program Developers, Executive Advisory Council

Role Overview

Dream Opportunity is hiring a Corporate Client Associate to support the development, execution, and expansion of high-value partnerships with Fortune 500 companies and global brands. These partnerships range from 5- to 7-figure investments and directly fuel life-changing access for under-resourced students across the world.

In this role, you’ll contribute to research, proposal development, client communications, and execution of strategic initiatives—ensuring that each partnership is both high-impact and operationally sound.
