Educate. Radiate. Elevate. is a startup nonprofit in its 2nd year of operation. We currently have ~100 remote staff (including members of the Board and committees, tutors, volunteers, and interns) and we are continuing to grow at a rapid rate. While this growth is an exciting indication of how our mission and vision resonate with the local communities, it has also created some communication and management issues. Because we strive to keep humanity at the forefront of our growing organization’s operations, the Executive Director is looking for a Chief of Staff to oversee various aspects of the logistics of the Executive Director's daily work .


The COS will be responsible for:

Communication with the staff, including delivering tasks delegated by the ED verbally and in writing to the specified people in a manner that best motivates and inspires them to complete the assigned tasks by the given deadline
Managing the staff, including guiding them through their development, giving constructive feedback, and ensuring they are meeting their goals and deadlines
Acting as a buffer between the staff and the Executive Director by providing recommendations to improve teamwork, efficiency, and job satisfaction

The COS ought to have the following soft skills:

Communication skills that include empathy, emotional intelligence, and a personalized approach
Management skills that include problem-solving, time management, and operation oversight
The ability to work autonomously using critical thinking and organization strategies

Because this COS position requires getting to know the staff on a deeper level, we are asking for a 1 year commitment of 5-10 hours per week. We hope that we will have the funding in 6-12 months to make this a paid position for you and to increase the hours to ~20 hours per week.
