We are seeking an experienced and dynamic US Policy Manager to implement our advocacy efforts in the United States under the strategic direction of our Executive Director. This person will be responsible for advancing our mission within US policymaking, engaging with Congressional offices, governmental agencies, and fostering relationships with strategic partners.
The ideal candidate is an experienced policy advocate who has been involved in transformational policy change from inside or outside government, and is deeply knowledgeable about policy processes and passionate about reducing global catastrophic risk.
We are seeking an Operations Associate/Manager to help manage and grow the operational infrastructure of the 501(c)(4) Global Shield, its partner 501(c)(3) organization Global Shield Institute, and our current and future global offices. Global Shield is a young organization, so this will be a fast paced job, working directly with the Chief of Staff to address ever-changing organizational needs.
The successful candidate will be a proven task/project manager who can ensure nothing slips through the cracks, will bring real-world experience in nonprofit operations best practices to our young organization, and will have an interest in shepherding the growth of a complex global organization. This is an exciting opportunity for a mid-career operations professional to grow alongside the organization, taking on increasing autonomy and responsibility for our global operations over the coming years. A more senior hire (in the Operations Manager role) would be expected to provide additional strategic planning capacity to the organization and function in the role with less guidance and oversight.
As we grow, we intend to conduct future hiring rounds. For country offices, we are looking for potential talent to lead our advocacy in promising locations. We also have opportunities for volunteers, depending on the right fit and the needs of the organization.
