  • Ability to multitask, manage time effectively, and adapt in a fast-paced environment.
  • Commitment to working with diverse communities and low-to-moderate-income entrepreneurs.
  • Willingness to travel within NYC (Flushing, Manhattan, and occasionally other boroughs).
  • How We Work :

    At Renaissance, we are committed to serving the communities we support with dedication and excellence. We are a results-driven organization focused on empowerment and impact. Our employees are accountable, pragmatic, innovative, and collaborative, with a strong commitment to community service and development.
