Workforce Policy Lab Director Ops & Org Development (39138)

The Director of Operations and Organizational Development is a senior leadership role at the Workforce Policy Lab, carrying significant organizational authority and responsibility for the internal health, operational excellence, and people development of the Lab. This is not a support role — it is a co-leadership role for someone ready to share genuine ownership of a growing, mission-driven organization.

The Director of Operations and Organizational Development partners with the Executive Director to ensure WPL runs with clarity, accountability, and intentionality — that staff are developed and supported, systems are built and maintained, and the organization operates with integrity across all of its work. The ideal candidate is a confident, relational leader who thrives in complex environments, genuinely enjoys developing people, brings both systems thinking and interpersonal intelligence to their work, and is energized by building organizational capacity from the inside out.
