About Ellen Weinreb                                                                

Ellen comes to CSR recruiting after 2 years as a CSR career coach and 9 years as a CSR consultant. Her clients include Levi Strauss, Hewlett Packard, Sears Holdings, Nike and L.L.Bean.

Her interest in social responsibility stems from her involvement in Fair Trade during college where she studied African crafts cooperatives.  Upon graduation in 1991, she assisted coffee and crafts cooperatives while a Peace Corps Volunteer in Cameroon. 

The height of the sweatshop media blitz of 1997 coincided with her MBA education at Yale.  Her experience in labor rights through fair trade was her entrée into the corporate sector starting with internships at L.L. Bean and the New Economics Foundation in London.   At L.L. Bean, she was responsible for assessing their internal labor practices program and participating in the White House Apparel Industry Partnership (which later became the Fair Labor Association.) 

Since then, she has completed 19 consulting engagements continuously building on her experience.  She remains very engaged in Corporate Social Responsibility consulting and research through a long term contract at Levi Strauss & Co.
