The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative was founded by Priscilla Chan and Mark Zuckerberg in 2015 to help solve some of society’s toughest challenges — from eradicating disease and improving education to addressing the needs of our local communities. Our mission is to build a more inclusive, just, and healthy future for everyone.
Across our work in Science, Education, and within our communities, we pair technology with grantmaking, impact investing, and collaboration to help accelerate the pace of progress toward our mission. Our Operations organization provides the support needed to push this work forward.
Operations consists of our Brand & Communications, Central Tech, Finance, People, Real Estate/Workplace/Events/Facilities/Security (REWFS), Strategy & Operations, and Ventures teams. These teams provide the essential operations, services, and strategies needed to support CZI’s progress toward achieving its mission to build a better future for everyone.
At CZI, our people power our mission to build a better future for everyone. The Recruiting team plays a critical role in advancing that mission by identifying, attracting, and hiring exceptional, mission-aligned talent. In this role, you’ll lead full-cycle recruiting efforts across Operations teams. You’ll partner with leaders at every level, from emerging talent to executive search, to ensure we hire individuals who bring both immediate impact and long-term potential.
As a senior member of our small but mighty team, you’ll operate at both a strategic and hands-on level, crafting hiring strategies, navigating complex and competitive talent markets, and delivering best-in-class candidate and partner experiences. You’ll also have the opportunity to shape and scale our early-career talent programs.
We’re looking for someone who is not only collaborative and execution-oriented but also scrappy, proactive, and driven to innovate. You bring fresh ideas, a strong point of view, and a deep understanding of market dynamics. You’re a natural problem solver comfortable with change, energized by redesigning processes, and always looking for smarter, faster, more effective ways to work. Most importantly, you’re someone who makes the team better, whether by sharing knowledge, offering new perspectives, mentoring others, or pushing us to raise the bar. You’re excited to close top talent, run efficient and human-centered hiring processes, and help us continuously evolve our recruiting strategy to stay ahead of the curve.
