Digital Opportunity Principal

Reliable, affordable access to broadband, computers, and digital skills programs are foundational for thriving communities and economies. Educational, healthcare, economic development, and other public policy outcomes are too often limited by lack of access, affordability, or adoption of broadband and digital services. We partner with state and local governments, philanthropies, and private sector clients to design, deliver, manage, and evaluate comprehensive broadband infrastructure and digital inclusion programs.

We are seeking a Principal to join us to lead work around the country, ideally based in an HR&A Office in Atlanta, Dallas, Los Angeles, New York, Raleigh, Washington D.C and the Bay Area. The Principal will manage large-scale Digital Opportunity projects in ways that maximize the impact of our clients' work; they will be a leader in the practice internally and externally.

At HR&A, Principals manage multiple projects and business development efforts concurrently. Project timelines and scopes are highly variable at HR&A and often span between several weeks and several years, with Principals managing between three and six projects at a given time. Principals are responsible for :

• Creating project work plans
• Managing project budgets
• Directing the analytical work of project teams
• Ensuring the quality and timeliness of deliverables
• Developing productive working relationships with clients

Responsibilities of the Digital Opportunity Principal will also include :

We are looking for candidates with management and leadership experience in the public, private, or non-profit sector, deep curiosity about the Digital Opportunity challenges facing communities today, and a passion for equity, economic development, and systems change.
