Circulate is Hiring for our Leadership Team

Given the hot labor market, Circulate is re-issuing our postings for Director of Planning and Director of Development roles, both at a higher salary band.

Our Director of Planning will supervise a team of four planners and a large portfolio of value-oriented planning and outreach activities. This position is perfect for a lateral jump into a nonprofit, or for an up-and-comer looking to take the next step in their career to develop leadership, management, and business skills.

Our Director of Development will be a new position, to lead our fundraising efforts and to grow our membership engagement. This is a great opportunity for a nonprofit professional looking to help a high profile organization take the next step in growth and influence.
