We're launching a major hiring round across GiveWell's Operations department!
GiveWell has grown faster than even our most ambitious projections—we anticipate our total grantmaking is likely to approach or even exceed $1 billion this year, and we are working toward a future that could be several times that scale.
Our Operations team provides the scaffolding, systems, tools, and talent that help make that impact possible. We're looking to add early- to mid-level capacity across our People, Grants Admin, Tech, and Executive Support functions. Many of the roles we need to fill in Ops share common qualities: strong ownership, clear communication, good judgment, and a growth mindset.
If that sounds like you, and you've been looking for an opportunity to join our mission, please apply to our General Operations Application and indicate your interest in one (or many!) of the following opportunities:
* Grants Administration — shepherd grants from research handoff through due diligence, contracting, payment, and reporting.
* People Operations — own pieces of the employee lifecycle, international payroll, and benefits for 100+ staff across the globe.
* Talent Acquisition — help hire great talent via creative sourcing, guiding candidates through interviews, and improving the rigor and consistency of our hiring process.
* Technology — build, manage, and protect the tools and infrastructure that power GiveWell's work, and support the staff who rely on them.
* AI Enablement — help GiveWell's team adopt AI well by building enablement materials, finding new tools, and helping deploy them safely and effectively.
* Office of the CEO — provide operations and project support to our CEO and his Chief of Staff.
* Office of the COO — act as a proxy and extension of our COO, owning cross-operations initiatives.
We're hiring mostly at the Coordinator and Associate/Specialist level, and for most of these roles we'll consider hiring more than one person. See our job description for more details.
* Remote-friendly (US only) | Offices in Oakland, CA and Brooklyn, NY
* Fully funded health, dental, vision, and life insurance, four weeks PTO + annual summer break, 16 weeks fully paid parental leave, 403(b) with automatic 5% employer contribution
* Applications close September 7, 2026
