The posting

Organizational Culture and Engagement; Program Coordination and Services

The Organizational Culture and Engagement Department works across Pew to advance institutional cultural and engagement priorities.​​​​​​​

Program Coordination and Services supports the program department’s 40-plus projects to make Pew’s work more efficient and effective. The team partners with operations units to strengthen people management and reporting structures; refine program’s management of budgets, grants, and contracts; and implement systems to guide Pew’s work as the organization continues to evolve.

Position Overview The Senior Administrative Assistant provides high-level administrative and operational support to the Vice President, Organizational Culture and Engagement (OCE) and the Senior Director and Director, Program Coordination and Services (PCS). The role supports these leaders across separate units, helping them manage priorities, coordinate schedules and communications, and ensure the smooth execution of work within their units as well as cross-functional work. The position also provides administrative support to the broader OCE and PCS teams, helping coordinate shared processes, activities, and operational needs.

The ideal candidate is highly organized, proactive, discreet, and skilled at balancing competing priorities across senior leaders and their respective teams. Strong judgment, communication skills, attention to detail, and the ability to anticipate needs and work independently are essential.

  • Help maintain project information in the teams’ project management trackers, update timelines and action items, and contribute to unit project plans and related coordination.
  • Serve as a key point of coordination with internal and external stakeholders and helps ensure that information, requests, and decisions are routed and addressed efficiently.

Requirements

  • High school diploma or equivalent experience.
  • Generally, seven years of administrative experience in a fast-paced and dynamic environment.
  • Significant experience providing senior-level administrative or executive support.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting multiple senior leaders, teams, and managing competing priorities.
  • Familiarity with project management and collaboration tools, such as Asana.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
