Description
The Patrick J. McGovern Foundation (PJMF) is a $1.5 billion philanthropy working at the intersection of artificial intelligence, data science, and the public interest. This role exists to make sure the team advancing our mission is supported, developed, and set up to do the best work of their careers.  The Head of People Operations reports to the VP, People and Culture, and leads several critical pillars of the P&C function: manager capability, performance culture, organizational and manager learning, technical and non-technical recruiting, employee relations, HR compliance, and benefits. This is a role for someone who excels at both strategic people conversations and being in the weeds of an employee relations matter. You bring sound judgment to hard situations. You build teams and systems that hold up over time. You care about the mission, and that care shows up in how you treat your colleagues every day.
