About Transformations Community
The Transformations Community is a global network of researchers, practitioners, facilitators, and changemakers working at the intersection of social, ecological, technological, and institutional change.
Through conferences, inquiry initiatives, communities of practice, and collaborative projects, TC brings people together to learn how transformation happens in practice and across contexts.
We are entering an active 2026-2027 cycle leading toward our October 2027 gathering in Spain.
Why We're Hiring
TC is small, distributed, relational, and increasingly active. Much of the work moves through conversations and partnerships.
We need someone who can help the organization hold the operating threads: what is active, who owns it, what has been decided, what is stuck, what needs follow-up, and what can move next.
This is an integrator role for someone who can create clarity, continuity, and follow-through without overbuilding systems.This is not a conventional executive assistant role, a generic operations role, or a heavy project-management role.
This role is best suited to someone who has worked in mission-driven, research-oriented, nonprofit, sustainability, systems-change, and/or field-building environments.
The Role
You will work closely with TC's Executive Director, conference lead, communications implementer, web/technical support, and inquiry leads.
Your main task is to help TC operate with more shared visibility and less reliance on memory and ad hoc follow-up. You will turn priorities, meetings, relationships, and ideas into clear next steps, and decision points.
The goal is not a perfect system. The goal is a system people actually use.
What You'll Work On
You will help maintain a lightweight operating backbone for TC, including:

• making active workstreams easier to see;
• helping important meetings and conversations produce usable next steps;
• preparing decision points by clarifying options, timing, and next actions;
• supporting clearer handoffs;
• making timelines, dependencies, communications needs more visible
• using AI tools actively and experimentally for task extraction, decision logging, document retrieval, workflow support;
• helping create a simple weekly operating rhythm that keeps the team aligned;

First 90 Days
In the first 1-2 weeks, you will meet key team members, review core materials, map active workstreams, and create a first rough operating picture.
By 30 days, TC should have a working rhythm for tracking active work and follow-ups.
By 60-90 days, the operating system should be more stable, conference dependencies should be clearer, handoffs should be easier, and TC should be less dependent on informal memory.
What You Bring
We are looking for someone with substantial experience in operations, coordination, chief-of-staff, project or program operations, research center management, nonprofit operations, or mission-driven organizational support.
You have likely supported a founder, executive director, or small senior team, and you are comfortable working in situations where priorities are real but not always fully defined.
The strongest candidates will bring:

• follow-through across multiple workstreams;
• systems judgment, with the ability to build light structures that people actually use;
• decision-preparation skills and clear written communication;
• relational tact in small and distributed teams.

Experience in research, sustainability, systems change, field-building, nonprofits, and/or mission-driven organizations is strongly preferred.
While you do not need to be a subject-matter expert in sustainability transformations, you do need to understand enough of TC's purpose to build structures that support the work.
Work Environment
This is a remote, flexible role within a small and globally distributed team. The work is relational, intellectually active, and evolving.
You will have significant autonomy, and you will also need to work closely with others, clarify handoffs, and help a creative organization become more coherent.
What Success Looks Like
After several months, TC should have a clearer view of active work, follow-ups, and risks. Important meetings should generate follow-through. Conference, communications, and inquiry work should connect more smoothly.
Success means that:

• the team has a simple operating rhythm;
• major decisions and follow-ups are easier to find;
• conference dependencies are visible earlier;
• communications receive clearer upstream inputs;
• the Executive Director is less responsible for remembering every thread;
• TC can see what is slipping before it becomes a problem.
