CEO
Jennifer Alleva came to Your Part-Time Controller in 2003 after spending 8 years in public accounting with Arthur Andersen and as CFO of a bank and a start-up leasing company. “I was intrigued by YPTC’s specialization in part-time outsourcing. It seemed like such a practical solution and an interesting opportunity. Later, I realized the added benefit of working with nonprofit organizations is the feeling that I am furthering their missions through my work,” she says.
“I was also intrigued by the challenge of growing a business like Your Part-Time Controller to make it more of a force in the nonprofit sector,” she adds. When Jen came on board, YPTC had 11 employees; today, the firm has grown dramatically and expanded its presence from Philadelphia and South Jersey to New York City, Washington, and Houston. “We’re big enough to have the resources to help our client organizations, and small enough to provide personal attention and customized services,” she says.
“I started at YPTC as a part-time employee when my children were younger. I am thrilled that YPTC offers a wonderful work-life balance for all staff, one of the many reasons we have repeatedly been voted as a ‘Best Place to Work’ in Philadelphia and Washington.”
Jen is a graduate of the Boston College School of Management with a B.S. in accounting and is a CPA. In addition to her work with nonprofit clients, Jen has a background in volunteer and board service with many community organizations, including fundraising for Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy. She serves on the Board of Directors of Catholic Partnership Schools in Camden, N.J., and has a background in board service with many other community organizations including the Junior League of Philadelphia, Junior Achievement, and the Nonprofit Development Center of South Jersey.
“The most rewarding work in my career has been at Your Part-Time Controller,” she says. “I love that we are able to help nonprofit organizations that are in trouble and turn them around as well as support all of our clients in their quest to make the world a better place.”
