Program Director
Position Summary
This position supports the day-to-day operations and programming of the Biotech CEO Sisterhood, cross-C-Suite programs, and some basic support for the new C-Suite Sisterhoods. You'll serve as a trusted thought partner for the Executive Director and take ownership of three core areas: membership, program management, and operations.
We are a small organization — one full-time staff member and occasional part-time support — so this role requires someone who can work independently, manage competing priorities, and figure things out. The work spans both tactical execution and longer-term visioning and planning as the organization scales.
How to Apply: Please send a cover letter and resume or CV to info@biotechceosisterhood.org
Location: Remote with a preferred location in San Diego, San Francisco, Boston, or New York
Part Time: 10-20 hours per week to start, with a plan to increase hours after probationary period
