Neubauer Family Foundation

Senior Program Officer

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (In Person)

The Neubauer Family Foundation (NFF) invites applications and nominations for its Senior Program Officer (SPO) role.

Founded in 1998, NFF invests in people and data-driven, evidence-based initiatives intended to achieve transformational impact. Philanthropic initiatives include strategic investments in Philadelphia’s school system and community safety, innovative leadership of arts & cultural organizations, institutions of higher learning and advancing new opportunities for Arab-Israelis to participate in Israel’s high prestige scientific revolution. NFF partners with organizations and institutions that have sound vision, fiscal discipline, coherent implementation plans, and metrics to measure progress.

Based in Philadelphia, the SPO will develop, implement, and manage an active portfolio of grants initially focusing on initiatives related to K-12 education (school leadership, arts, and high school improvement), but will act as a generalist and will be required to remain flexible and to adapt to new content work across a range of issue areas. The SPO will possess a strategic, systems-thinking mindset, strong communication and relational skills, and excellent project management skills to effectively implement strategic initiatives.

The SPO will join a dynamic team of five and work in a fast-paced environment that requires a team-based, results-oriented, and entrepreneurial style. The SPO will report to the Executive Director (ED) and work closely with other members of the NFF team.
