Recruiter

About Open Philanthropy Open Philanthropy is a grantmaker; our mission is to help others as much as we can with the resources available to us. We stress openness to many possibilities and have chosen our focus areas based on importance, neglectedness, and tractability. Our current giving areas include global health and development, scientific research, South Asian air quality, farm animal welfare, biosecurity and pandemic preparedness, and potential risks from advanced artificial intelligence. In 2023, we recommended just under $800 million to high-impact causes, and we’ve recommended over $3 billion in grants since our formation.

The Role Open Phil is growing rapidly. The organization has more than doubled in size over the last two years, and the Recruiting team has been involved in each of those acquisitions, helping teams do everything from identifying their initial hiring needs to making final offers. We develop and implement the systems by which Open Phil finds and evaluates top talent, and are Open Phil’s institutional memory and point of call for all things hiring. The team currently has six members, led by Maura Taylor. We’re looking to add more members to keep up with Open Phil’s continued growth.

Job Requirements No recruiting experience is required, but we’re looking for candidates with at least a year or two of operations-relevant experience who have successfully managed fast-moving processes without dropping balls. If you don’t yet have this experience, we suggest completing the general indication of interest for operations roles instead (and if you’re interested in working on the Recruiting team specifically, noting this in your indication of interest).
