The RoleThis is a builder role - and a rare one. You'll have hands-on ownership of day-to-day operations across finance, IT, HR, and systems - the execution layer that keeps everything running. You'll report to the SVP of Operations and work directly alongside senior leadership, with real visibility into how a mission-driven organization makes an outsized impact.
The through-line across everything you do: how do we use AI and automation to do this better, faster, and at greater scale? That work is already underway. You're building on momentum, not starting from scratch.
What You'll DoAI & Operational Efficiency
- Identify opportunities to extend our AI-enabled workflows and design new solutions where gaps exist
- Evaluate, pilot, and implement tools that reduce manual work and improve how the team operates
- Champion operational innovation and build systems that scale so we're not solving the same problems twice
IT & Systems
- Oversee our managed service provider and coordinate day-to-day IT support
- Manage the software stack: renewals, vendor relationships, and license hygiene
- Lead software procurement - researching, piloting, and recommending tools
Finance
- Support budgeting, expense tracking, and accounts payable
- Manage vendor relationships and coordinate contracts and invoicing
HR
- Keep the People/HR infrastructure running: onboarding, offboarding, leaves, payroll coordination, benefits, and compliance
- Maintain HR systems and data integrity; support hiring as needed
What We're Looking For- 3-8 years of operations, chief of staff, or related experience -- ideally at a startup or early- to mid-stage org
- A track record with AI or automation initiatives that created real efficiency
- Comfort with financial operations basics: budget tracking, expense management, and reporting
- Strong project management instincts and a reliability to close loops
- A systems thinker who sees the whole before the parts
- A natural generalist, equally comfortable in an HR conversation, a systems audit, and a finance review
- Clear, confident communication across different audiences
- Nonprofit or mission-driven org experience is a plus, but not required
Why This Role MattersOperations is what allows our programs to run at their best. In this role, you'll have real ownership over the systems and infrastructure supporting work that touches millions of women and girls -- with room to grow, and a team working toward something that matters.
