Strategy Lead, Building

Jonathan Gruber

Jon

I lead Einhorn Collaborative’s Building strategy, which works to strengthen social trust at the community level and ensure that more people have opportunities to connect across difference.

Most rewarding moment since joining Einhorn Collaborative

Playing a key role in the conception, design, and launch of New Pluralists, a funder collaborative working to strengthen a culture of pluralism in the U.S. and to support the growing ecosystem powering this work.

Something people may not know about me

I’ve spent most of my life in the Northeast, though I was born in Louisville, Kentucky and have a fondness for the Bluegrass State from my many visits with loved ones over the years.

Something that inspires me

“I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.” ― E.B. White

Before Einhorn Collaborative

I worked as a management consultant advising clients across sectors on strategy, organizational change, and culture; as director of education for a nonprofit that supports Holocaust rescuers and preserves their legacy; and as a teacher at a school in the English countryside.
