As Vice President of Global Partnerships, Jen Kim Field leads partnership efforts to contribute towards the sustainability of the UN Foundation and support the work of the United Nations. She brings fifteen years of experience to the senior leadership team in the areas of business development, corporate community involvement, program management, communications, sales and strategic planning.

She is a frequent speaker at marketing and corporate social responsibility events and has been featured at Advertising Week and at the International Corporate Citizenship Conference, among others. Jen also serves on the selection committee for CECP’s Excellence Awards in Corporate Philanthropy.

In 2010 she oversaw the launch of the UN Foundation’s Girl Up campaign (www.GirlUp.org), a “for girls, by girls” movement to empower American girls to raise awareness and funds for UN programs that help some of the world’s hardest-to-reach adolescent girls.

Prior to joining the UN Foundation, Jen worked at VolunteerMatch, where she helped Fortune 500 companies use technology to advance their volunteer initiatives and campaigns. From her earlier work at PricewaterhouseCoopers Consulting (now IBM Business Consulting) through her work at Points of Light Foundation and beyond, Jen’s career has often bridged the corporate and nonprofit worlds.

Jen hails from Alabama, where she acquired a taste for fried catfish and grits. She graduated from Bowdoin College with a B.A. in Spanish and lives in Arlington, VA, with her husband, Evan, guitarist for the rock band Honor By August, and their beautiful daughter, Annabelle.
