The posting

Stand Together is a philanthropic community that helps America’s boldest changemakers tackle the root causes of our country’s biggest problems, from education to the economy, broken communities, and toxic division, among dozens of other pressing issues. We provide our partners with access to resources including funding, thought leadership, a network of peers, and a playbook for applying proven principles to transform lives and society.

We are seeking a strategic and execution-oriented Director of Activations to lead high-impact initiatives that drive participation, cultural engagement, and long-term movement growth around key social issues.

This role sits within Stand Together’s Activations capability, which turns priority initiatives into scalable opportunities for people to participate and take meaningful action. The Director of Activations will serve as the day-to-day leader and integrator of complex initiatives, translating activation strategy into coordinated execution and aligning internal teams, external partners, platforms, and workstreams around shared goals and measurable outcomes.

This role may be especially well suited to someone who has operated as an executive producer, integrated producer, initiative lead, or similar cross-functional leader who can take an ambitious idea, understand what is required to bring it to life, and orchestrate the right people and capabilities to deliver it.

How You Will Contribute

  • Translate activation strategy into coordinated execution, leading complex initiatives through launch, optimization, and measurable outcomes.
  • Build clear execution plans, participation pathways, workstreams, decision points, timelines, and success measures.
  • Coordinate teams across partnerships, media, creative, marketing, technology, events, consumer insights, and other capabilities.
  • Create alignment across internal stakeholders and external partners, resolving obstacles and making tradeoffs to keep work moving.
  • Integrate brands, sports and entertainment properties, creators, nonprofits, platforms, and other partners into broader activation efforts.
  • Help develop participation models that make it easy and meaningful for people to take action repeatedly, strengthening engagement and movement growth over time.
  • Help build and improve the platforms, partnerships, and operating models that allow activations to scale across issues and audiences.
  • Define and monitor performance tied to participation, repeat engagement, and overall activation impact.

What You Will Bring

  • 7+ years of experience leading complex, cross-functional initiatives from concept through execution and measurable results.
  • Experience in areas such as executive or integrated production, strategic initiatives, sports and entertainment, consumer brands, media, partnerships, or other highly collaborative environments.
  • A strong producer mindset with the ability to connect strategy, creative, partnerships, operations, technology, and audience engagement without needing to be the functional expert in each.
  • Proven ability to bring ambitious ideas to life by coordinating multiple teams, partners, vendors, platforms, and workstreams.
  • Strong judgment and stakeholder leadership, with the ability to create clarity, navigate ambiguity, and drive decisions across teams.
  • Experience with nationally recognized consumer brands, sports or entertainment properties, media companies, cultural organizations, or other high-visibility partners is a plus.
  • Ability to move comfortably between big-picture strategy and detailed execution.
  • Enthusiasm to contribute to Stand Together's vision and principled approach to solving problems, and a commitment to stewarding our culture, which champions values including transformation and innovation, entrepreneurialism, humility, and respect.

Examples of Activation Work

  • Stand Together’s activation work spans sports and entertainment partnerships, digital participation, community engagement, media, and live experiences. Recent examples include Yes, Coach!, My Cause My Cleats, SomewhereFest, and efforts supported through Be The People.

What We Offer

  • Competitive benefits: Enjoy a 6% 401(k) match with immediate vesting, flexible time off, comprehensive health and dental plans, plus wellness and mental health support through Peloton and Talkspace.
  • A meaningful career: Join a passionate community of over 1,300 employees dedicated to improving lives and driving innovative solutions to complex social challenges.
  • Commitment to growth: Thrive in a non-hierarchical environment that empowers employees to discover, develop and apply their unique talents.
  • Competitive compensation: Our approach rewards the value you create through competitive salaries and bonus opportunities, allowing you to share in the success you help drive.

Our Values: Working for an organization within the Stand Together philanthropic community is different from many other places. The culture is deeply rooted in Principle Based Management® (PBM®), a framework guided by the principles that drive human progress, such as dignity, openness, and bottom-up empowerment. PBM® empowers employees to be entrepreneurial, to innovate, and to continually drive transformation.

We believe diversity fuels creativity, broadens knowledge, and helps drive success. That is why we’re proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer and strive to treat all employees and applicants with honesty, dignity, and respect.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
