Program Director, Economic Opportunity

**ABOUT THE ORGANIZATION**
Based in Boston, MA, the Fidelity Foundations are a group of private foundations that fund diverse programs on a national scale. The Foundations are committed to advancing the long-term vibrancy of communities through investments in nonprofit organizations focused on arts and culture, conservation, economic opportunity, education, and medical science. We have a deep history of funding organizations in Boston and New England for over 60 years. We also support organizations that strengthen the communities in select additional metropolitan areas across the United States.
Today, the Foundations are at an important and exciting stage in our organizational history, having grown and evolved in recent years. As our strategies and organization continue to develop, we are seeking individuals with skills and expertise that support the advancement and execution of a long-term portfolio of significant and strategic philanthropic investments.
Our operating principles since we began nearly six decades ago still guide our grantmaking today: we strive to support our grantees’ long-term effectiveness and build organizational capabilities to better fulfill their missions and serve their constituencies. Our values of excellence, integrity, respect, collaboration, and a deep sense of humility guide our grantmaking which is executed quietly, and most grants carry external anonymity.
One of the Foundations’ priorities is to promote conditions for individuals to achieve upward mobility from poverty and live with agency and dignity, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born. Specifically, the Foundations’ Economic Opportunity Program seeks to improve the wellbeing of individuals, children, and families from historically underserved backgrounds by focusing on the following strategies:
- ** Early Childhood Development**: Babies are born healthy, to healthy and prepared parents, and continue to thrive during early childhood.
- ** Youth Engagement**: Young people are healthy, engaged, connected, and on a path to economic mobility.
- ** Generational Prosperity**: Individuals are creating and building lasting financial stability for the next generation.
**ABOUT THE POSITION**
Reporting to the Vice President of Programs, the Program Director works collaboratively with our trustees to create a vision for the Economic Opportunity program and leads a team of program staff to grow, manage, and evaluate a portfolio of philanthropic investments that align with trustees’ interests and needs in the field. The Program Director proactively drives strategic grantmaking, pipeline planning, and progress against team and Foundation-wide goals. They manage priority projects and initiatives specific to the Economic Opportunity team’s work, including cultivation and oversight of a select portfolio of grantees.
