Partnerships
What we are actively looking for
We are more interested in relationships that last than in arrangements that look good on a page. If you are considering sponsoring us, expect to be asked what you want out of it first.
- Partnering corporation
- Employers who seat up to four executives on a corporate membership. We are a development and retention instrument, not a venue hire.
- Capital partners
- Angel investors, private lenders and grant providers who want structured access to a vetted group of women operators. One submission to the quarterly Pitch to OH summit per member.
- Professional services
- Coaches, therapists, financial advisers, recruiters and strategists who work credibly with women at C-level and are interested in the club as a long relationship rather than a lead source.
- Venues & suppliers
- We are building a permanent clubhouse in downtown Stone Mountain. Local makers, printers, caterers and trades are actively welcome to introduce themselves.
What we look for
Credibility over credentials, and evidence over adjectives. We are looking for people who can point at something they changed and say precisely how they changed it.
We also hire for temperament. A club is a set of conversations, and the quality of those conversations is the product. If you are the person who makes the room better, we will find a title for you.
What we offer
- Meaningful work attached to a mission you can believe or decline.
- Direct access to the membership, without a gatekeeper.
- Remote-friendly arrangements by default, on-site when it matters.
- Paid roles properly paid. Volunteering is a separate column.

Come and build it with us
The clubhouse, the programmes and the events are all built by people who decided to be useful rather than visible. We are always looking for more of them.
