This is an excellent opportunity to have a significant impact at both an organization and on our healthcare system. You’ll emerge from this experience with a wide set of relationships and knowing how to build an impactful organization.

Responsibilities

Be Ady’s partner in envisioning a world where we all have the healthcare we need and work with the team to make it so.
Work with Ady and our stakeholders to create a strategic plan for our next stage of growth.
Serve as a face for the organization for TV and press appearances when needed.
Speak on panels and at events, representing Be A Hero.
Help us figure out the staffing, recruitment, culture, and team processes we need to become the organization that this struggle requires. You will be able to hire people or contractors to support you in this work, and day to day management will be a pillar of this role.
Manage direct reports of the senior leadership team.
Advance the goals of Be A Hero through fundraising with the finance team and participating in organizational funding pitches to donors along with Ady.

Skills & Qualifications

The other Co-Director is looking to work with someone:

Who is excited by taking on the monumental challenge of winning Medicare For All;
Who can be a public leader of the organization;
Who is an organization builder–who can lead the building of Be A Hero as we help catalyze a movement for transformational change.
4 or more years of management experience – running teams of 10+ and having managed at least 4 direct reports
Understanding of healthcare policy
Commitment to racial and economic justice and disability rights
Understanding and management of budgets over $5M
Fundraising and donor relations experience
Political experience and a broad network
Experience in political or community organizing
Experience in organizational development
An ability to be patient and engaging and a strong commitment to collaboration and team work – your co-director speaks using his eye gaze technology, and providing him with agency, and respect for his process is critical.

Additional Information

This is a full time position, starting as a 1099 and hopefully shifting to a W2 in 2021. Payment will be between – $210,000-240,000 as a full time contract position. This position can be remote anywhere within the US.

Be A Hero maintains a strong commitment to the values of equal justice and a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace that is safe and welcoming to all. We believe that all institutions should more fully reflect the world we live in and commit to doing that in our organization. We strongly urge anyone who shares our commitment to equality, justice, and freedom for all regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability status, military status, or ethnicity to apply.
