  • Climate : Holding major polluters accountable for climate degradation through bold taxes and fines, ensuring they fund recovery, rebuilding, and climate solutions.
  • Democracy Resilience & Anti‑SLAPP : Defending the right to protest and free speech, protecting activists from SLAPP lawsuits aimed at silencing them.

Responsibilities

  • Oversee budgeting, forecasting, internal controls, cash flow management, audits, regulatory compliance, reporting, cross‑departmental resource allocation, and scenario modeling for long‑term sustainability.
  • Manage investments in partnership with the Board Finance and Investment Committees, ensuring adherence to established investment policies.
  • Collaborate with the General Counsel, IT Director, and Facilities Director to lead enterprise risk management, proactively identifying and mitigating legal, financial, operational, and cybersecurity risks.
  • Build strong relationships with financial institutions, auditors, investment advisors, and other key external partners.
  • Eliminate silos by assessing, streamlining, and simplifying processes. Engage all staff in financial and operational excellence through clear and understandable strategy and language.
  • Serve as a thought partner to the Executive Director, anticipating operational needs, resolving bottlenecks, and ensuring organizational priorities are met.
  • Collaborate with the Senior Management Team (Campaigns / Programs, Communications, Development, General Counsel) to drive annual and multi‑year strategic plans.
  • Champion cross‑organizational change initiatives, process improvements, and operational innovations.
  • Build a culture of collaboration, equity, learning, and continuous improvement across all teams.
  • Build and maintain trust with internal leaders, staff, and key external partners through strong relationships and transparent communication.
  • Ensure timely, clear communication with the Boards on financial, operational, and risk matters.
  • Liaise with Greenpeace International and other National / Regional Offices on global initiatives, ensuring Greenpeace USA’s active participation in cross‑border planning and resource processes.
  • Work effectively with union leadership to maintain strong relationships in alignment with organizational values and legal obligations.
  • Enhance Greenpeace USA’s people‑centered strategies, including recruitment, onboarding, professional development, performance management, succession planning, and staff engagement.
  • Champion equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) initiatives that promote a respectful, high‑trust, and inclusive workplace.
  • Oversee technology, data, and facilities strategies to ensure operational effectiveness, cybersecurity, and accessibility.
  • Strengthen infrastructure, integrate systems, and promote data‑informed decision‑making.
  • Oversee facilities management to support safe, sustainable, and productive working environments for staff across locations.
  • Lead organizational performance tracking, using OKRs, KPIs, and dashboards to monitor progress against strategic plans and address operational challenges.
  • Qualifications

  • Ten years or more of senior leadership in nonprofit or mission‑driven organizations.
  • Four years or more experience managing teams, senior managers, and directors.
  • Proven expertise leading both finance and operations, with the ability to create alignment and harmony between financial and operational priorities.

  • Adaptive and resilient — demonstrates flexibility, nimbleness, and maturity in navigating complex challenges.
  • Exceptional collaboration skills — facilitates and leads effectively across diverse teams.
  • Strong communicator — translates complex financial and operational concepts for diverse audiences with clarity and impact.
