Additionally, the Assistant Director will provide staff support for the Center's Founding Chairman including scheduling, preparing briefings, organizing travel, and miscellaneous administrative assistance. Furthermore, the Assistant Director will support and help coordinate the Center's regular events and ambitious programming agenda.
