The Opportunity
The Communications and Marketing Manager is a senior, strategic role within the Chief of Staff Team, reporting directly to the Chief of Staff. This position owns the Center’s integrated communications and marketing function, shaping how the organization tells its story, reaches priority audiences, and supports growth.
