Amalgamated Foundation

Vice President, Programs & Strategic Initiatives

Remote (within United States)

The Amalgamated Foundation is redefining philanthropy by empowering activism, harnessing generosity, and leveraging technology to build new pathways to move resources quickly and strategically to the frontlines of social change. Since launching in 2018, the Foundation has given away $500 million and built a strong network of partners across the sector. With a goal of reaching $1 billion contributed by 2026, the Foundation is focused on leveling up for sustainable future growth and increasing its ability to seed, convene, and build movements.

To support their growth trajectory, the Foundation is seeking nominations and applications for the newly created position of Vice President of Programs & Strategic Initiatives (VP). This VP will play an instrumental role in helping guide the Foundation’s next chapter, leading the development, implementation, and promotion of the programs and initiatives that demonstrate the Foundation’s bold and innovative approach to philanthropy. They will play a critical role in implementing the strategy, structure, and plan for the Foundation’s hiring and impact over the next several years.

This VP will focus on both the external landscape and internal structure of the Foundation, looking outwards to assess the ecosystem, analyzing and strategizing around which opportunities align with the Foundation – and they will collaborate internally to ensure its resources are structured and designed appropriately to meet those opportunities.

They will report to the Executive Director, and they will eventually supervise a team.
