Washington, United States Page Productions Inc Full time
About the Opportunity

This is a leadership role that oversees the strategic direction and day-to-day operations of a program that combines the influential power of the news media and the analytical power of science and scientists to serve society and the public good.

About the Program

The program is a six-year-old, philanthropically supported, editorially independent, free service for journalists and scientists. Its primary goal is to make it as easy as possible for U.S. reporters—especially those working at local news outlets—to include scientist sources and validated scientific evidence in their news stories.

Key Responsibilities
  • Oversee a highly skilled, highly motivated staff comprising former journalists and science communicators, Master's- and PhD-level scientists who have specialized in science communication, and journalistically savvy technical, marketing, and operational support personnel.
  • Work closely with senior leadership to ensure seamless integration with the nonprofit's overarching mission and collaborate with the philanthropy team to ensure the program's near- and long-term fiscal sustainability.
  • Develop and lead remote and in-person trainings to help journalists understand how to report skillfully on scientific topics and help scientists understand the U.S. media ecosystem and interact with it effectively to give voice to the facts.
  • Diversify the voices and backgrounds of scientists who are seen and heard in the news and assist reporters whose news outlets particularly serve underrepresented and underserved populations.
About the Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate will have a strong background in science communication, program leadership, and strategic vision. They will be able to build on the program's well-established foundation and innovate with new tools and creative strategies to ensure ongoing mission efficacy in today's fast-changing media landscape.
