To succeed in this Initiative Markle has retained Witt/Kieffer to aid in the recruitment of two new positions: Senior Director of Research and Manager of Research. The Senior Director of Research is an integral part of the Markle leadership team and responsible for fostering and providing the intellectual underpinnings from key data and analytic resources. The Senior Director enables the Foundation to fulfill its mission in an informed manner that is connected to the broader community of interest. This is accomplished by collecting, aggregating, analyzing and preparing information as well as identifying experts and maintaining relationships necessary to meet the needs of the work at any given time, and in any given format. The Senior Director of Research is responsible for fostering within Markle, a climate of intellectual integrity, curiosity, inquiry, and exploration of new ideas and emerging trends. The Senior Director works across all program areas, including health, economic security and national security. The Senior Director will supervise the work of staff, outside experts working with Markle, as well as related contractors, interns or project volunteers. The Research Manager will conduct research and coordinate well-defined projects and initiatives. Such projects typically involve conducting research for Markle on substantive issues, organizations, and people, assisting in the development of materials, supporting the management and logistics of meetings; overseeing consultants; drafting and editing documents, and ensuring the delivery of timely, high-quality reports and white papers. The position reports to the Senior Director of Research, but activities and tasks may support a range of staff members across the organization in Markle’s collaborative and collegial work environment. To obtain detailed position specifications, send resumes, nominations, or expressions of interest please connect with Wayne Luke or John Fazekas, the consultants supporting Markle, at MarkleSrDirResearch@wittkieffer.com Posted 1/31/2014
