Chief Operating Officer

Chief Operating Officer

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, campaign-like environment, having the experience to know when to stay the course and when to pivot. You are a big thinker and big doer. You get excited about building systems and processes to support ambitious goals. You can see around corners and execute plans that manage the financial and regulatory health of our organization. You are the calm and steady leader in an increasingly fraught environment for civil society, ensuring that our mission and values are at the center of our operations. You see people as an organization's best resource and know how to build a people operation that supports both individual and organizational development and growthat scale. You're a seasoned manager who can coach, motivate, and support a remote, distributed team and are energized by working across lines of difference. This job is posted with a location of Washington, D.C. but you don't need to live there : anywhere in the U.S. works, as it's a remote role with some occasional travel.
