Seeking a Program Logistics Lead (Remote)

Program Logistics Lead

Full-Time; Remote

 

Spring is a remote-first social enterprise and global capacity accelerator for social and climate justice leaders. Our programs have provided coaching and immersive training in facilitation and financial innovation to more than 800 organizations, such as the Ford Foundation, FRIDA | The Young Feminist Fund, Derechos Digitales, Fund for Global Human Rights and many more.

We work to support leaders of system change to navigate complexity, power, conflict, and funding while joining forces across silos, sectors and world views. We see leadership as a collaborative practice of being in service to people and planet. Our core values are justice, connection to our communities and the transformation of human potential.

There’s a lot of space for your individual talents, interests, ideas and personal leadership development along the way.

Spring is an equal opportunity employer. We’re a group of people who are always learning as we remain joyfully accountable to global justice, equity, diversity and inclusion in our work, hiring and employment practices. We celebrate and are enriched by the differences among us, finding common purpose in our values and our vision of a life-sustaining future for everyone.
