ABOUT THE OpEd PROJECT
The OpEd Project is a social venture and leadership organization, founded to change who writes history. We are a community of journalists, thought leaders, and change agents who actively share knowledge, resources, and connections across color, creed, class, sexuality, gender, age, ability, and beyond. Through our nationally-recognized curriculum, our team of journalist mentors, and through a portfolio of programs in partnership with leading institutions across the nation and the globe, we accelerate the ideas and impact of underrepresented voices, including women of all backgrounds. We have been covered by most major media. We have stunning results.
WE BELIEVE:
  • The story we tell becomes the world we live in.
  • The world becomes more intelligent when it is more inclusive.
  • The best ideas, regardless of where they come from, should have a chance to be heard and to change the world.

Over the past few years, we have experienced significant growth. As we grow, we are seeking to build our core leadership team, in anticipation of a bold new chapter. We will continue to expand our flagship Public Voices Fellowship initiative into a powerful new force to change the cultural narrative on a large scale, with permanent and undeniable impact.
ABOUT THE ROLE
Our team of program managers is the connective tissue that grounds and guides our team of fellowship coaches, facilitators, and thought leaders across the nation. We are recruiting a highly organized, very personable, and execution-oriented superstar to join us as we continue to grow. This position is deeply essential to our organization and offers real responsibility and rapid opportunity for promotion for someone who excels. Social vision, accountability to results, ability to work as part of a fast-moving team, and an ongoing commitment to and investment in our mission are key.
Program managers work with program associates and other senior staff to run our 3-12 month Public Voices fellowship programs from start to finish, bringing together an exciting ecosystem of professional journalists, scholars, activists, and community leaders. With support, managers will be responsible for the success, excellence, and growth of a portfolio of fellowship programs that run in partnership with leading universities and foundations. Program managers guide and support the fellowship coach teams that deliver the curriculum in each fellowship, to create a transformational experience for every participant. They support our journalist facilitators, liaise with our partners within universities and foundations, and help build relationships that create moving experiences within our community and our team.
This is an amazing position for a person who wishes to have a career in social change or be a social entrepreneur. A stellar candidate will have the opportunity to join a small but rapidly growing social venture with real and meaningful responsibility and will be able to see their impact in concrete and moving ways. This is also an ideal position for someone who wants to develop a career at the nexus of media, social justice, entrepreneurism, women's rights, and thought leadership.

  • Passionately represent OpEd Project at events, conferences, and talks

  • Minimum of a B.A.
  • Proven track record of making things happen (for example, managing or better yet launching a project or event with multiple moving parts and people, that required you to drive demand, interact with customers, speakers, and clients, and handle logistics and operations).
