Position Summary
The American Museum of Natural History is seeking a chief of staff. This is a newly crafted position reporting directly to the Museum president. In partnership with the president, the chief of staff will be responsible for developing and implementing institutional strategy.

The chief of staff will lead strategic projects and initiatives and manage the flow of information among senior leaders. They will draft and manage leadership team meeting agendas, materials, and key action items. The chief of staff will have responsibility for institution-wide (cross-divisional) committees of the Museum and represent the president as needed in both internal and external Museum-related meetings, including Board committees.

The chief of staff will directly supervise the newly created Office of Institutional Research, Planning, and Analytics. In collaboration with the Secretary of the Board and the Office of General Counsel, supervise scheduling of board meetings and board committee meetings, and lead all aspects of the production and distribution of Board materials.

This is an opportunity for a creative and highly organized problem solver, with meticulous attention to detail and outstanding writing and interpersonal skills, to be a meaningful part of the leadership team. This role requires excellent judgment and discretion and the ability to balance and prioritize multiple, often-shifting projects at once. Additionally, the ability to effectively work with individuals at every level of an organization, both internally and externally, is necessary.
