About the Role
The Serenelli General Manager position holds together all the various threads of the new Serenelli Project organization and community of volunteers. The Serenelli Project exists to create Catholic faith-based communities inspired by the life of Alessandro Serenelli for prison re-entry, with an eye to creating a monastic community of religious for people with criminal records. The General Manager is the daily voice of the Serenelli Project, handling everything from general reception to working with vendors to event planning and program coordination. A key function of the position is sharing and being a good example of the Catholic faith through management of the Serenelli Project’s programs.
