What you will work on

• Manage vendors, budgets, contracts, payments, and access; resolve quality and delivery issues and improve processes as programs grow.

Requirements

• Ownership of large-scale data or production programs, with strong contributor, partner, and budget management.

• High agency and independent judgment under pressure and tight deadlines; clear communication and care with consent and sensitive information.

• Nice to have: creative output data, large-scale participant programs, or research operations.
