Director of Operations (New York)

This mission-driven nonprofit is dedicated to shifting perceptions of Jews and Israel through strategic, modern marketing. The organization partners with leading funders, agencies, and research teams to create high-impact campaigns that move audiences and advance understanding. As the work expands, the team requires a marketing operations leader who can bring structure, clarity, and operational excellence to an environment with many external contributors and where creative input is already abundant.

Position Overview

The organization is seeking a true Marketing Operations leader someone who has owned marketing operations at scale, ideally within an agency environment or a similarly fast-paced, high-budget ecosystem. This is not a creative role and not a position for someone looking to shape content, pitch ideas, or participate in conceptual direction.

With more than enough voices offering creative input, the organization needs a professional who is energized by making the creative work the person who builds the systems, manages the timelines, understands the production realities, and ensures flawless, efficient execution.

This role is ideal for a candidate excited to bring structure to complexity, drive operational rigor, and make it possible for creative teams and partner agencies to deliver their best work.
