You translate that strategy directly into team priorities and goals, and adapt them as strategy shifts in course inevitably arise. You understand and have articulated the principles, philosophies, and standards that are core to the team's work, and where possible, you build them into systems. You make these foundational ideas explicit in order to empower the team to do more and make more decisions without directly involving you. Risk management: You assess & understand key risks to the team and greater org in terms of probability and impact; you flag when high-risk issues arise and watch, address, or escalate appropriately. 2) Strategic Development The US/Europe Managing Director will establish new organizational functions and enhance existing capabilities.

The ideal candidate will be able to learn new areas quickly and be willing to build iterative systems that improve to meet the organization's needs as we grow.

Is able to make decisions with either too much information or incomplete information and then test. 3) US & Global Finance & Ops The US team leads the execution of global finance and revenue for the entire organization, so running US operations smoothly, efficiently, and proactively is fundamental for the organization as a whole. We have a strong Controller who you'll manage on this key work channel, and you'll also work with our excellent Director of People, to ensure that policies are consistent across geographies. Educate! also has robust finance teams in each country, and their finances are consolidated in the US. As a result, our US finance function owns our consolidated global books, leads our annual global audit, and liaises with the Board on finance. The US finance function is also responsible for finances supporting our fundraising, including external financial reporting and compliance and drafting and managing budgets for grant proposals. HR systems and processes e.g., contract management, HR policies, and payroll also sit under the US & Global Ops function. Finance & operations team work plans, workflow and capacity planning: You ensure the finance & operations function has annual and termly goals and has the resources and support needed to meet them. You manage the team to the core objectives of working efficiently and flexibly with a mission to serve the US and global teams and ultimately Educate!'s work and impact. Quality & financial integrity: You manage the US finance and operations systems and people to standards of quality, in addition to outputs. You are ultimately responsible for the integrity of the US financial system, and you keep a sharp eye out for areas that could leave the organization exposed in collaboration. US procurement practices are ethical, fair, efficient, and cost-effective and achieve quality results in a timely manner. Finance & Ops Systems: Working with the US Head of Finance & Ops, you oversee the systems and processes to manage key finance, operations, and HR functions, ensuring they exist where needed (and not where they aren't), and that they are efficient and only as complex as necessary.
