• You enjoy a hybrid environment that includes both in-person and remote work styles and are able to work from our DTLA office on Tuesdays, Wednesday, Thursdays, and additional days as needed.
• You understand the value of racial equity as an organizational operating principle and are committed to continued learning on issues related to race, equity, diversity, and inclusion.

• You are a structured, reliable communicator who can translate data findings into clear narratives for non-technical audiences including funders, program staff, and government partners.

• You have worked in a fiscal intermediary, pass-through funding, or government-contracted environment and know firsthand what it takes to keep compliance, documentation, and stakeholder communication airtight.

• You are a natural collaborator who shares information freely, loops people in early, and thinks of cross-functional partners as co-owners of the work.
• You bring patience and adaptability to partner-facing work — you can meet a CBO where they are technically, build trust quickly, and make compliance feel less like a burden and more like a shared goal.
• You take feedback well, iterate without ego, and would rather surface a problem early than quietly protect a process that isn't working.
• You know your way around the Microsoft Windows operating systems and all it's essential programs including Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, and Teams.
