GiveWell is hiring Program Associates

We're hiring 5-6 Program Associates to provide critical project management support for GiveWell's research team, helping direct hundreds of millions of dollars to highly cost-effective global health programs.

As a Program Associate, you will:

• Manage complex research and grantmaking workflows across multiple concurrent projects
• Coordinate with internal teams and external stakeholders, including grantees and partner organizations
• Maintain and optimize project management systems, tools, and tracking mechanisms
• Proactively identify inefficiencies and implement process improvements
• Ensure precision and reliability in data, documents, and processes
• Handle straightforward issues independently while flagging complex challenges early

We're seeking organized, detail-oriented professionals with 2-5 years of project management or operational support experience. The ideal candidate thrives in high-volume, fast-paced environments and is genuinely energized by operational excellence rather than viewing PM as a stepping stone to other roles.

Important requirements:

• Must have at least 3-hour overlap with Pacific Time Zone
• We cannot sponsor visas for this role
• This is a dedicated project management role, not a pathway into research

Details:

• Remote-friendly (US, UK, Canada with work authorization)
• $108,800 (NYC/SF Bay Area) | $98,600 (all other US locations)
• Fully funded health coverage, 4 weeks PTO, 16 weeks parental leave, stipends for wellness and professional development
• Quarterly retreats and occasional international site visits

The application process includes work trials that simulate actual Program Associate tasks. Please share with anyone who might be a great fit!
