    REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS
    Below are some of the typical requirements for a Director of Technology Services. We recognize that skill sets can be a complex combination of experiences.

    Even if your background does not exactly match these requirements but you have a passion for our work, we would love to hear from you and we recognize the value of transferable skills.

    Education

    Bachelor's degree or equivalent in Computer Science, Information Technology, or related field.

    Experience


    Management level experience with 8+ years in IT Operations, Data/Analytics, Digital Infrastructure, and DevSecOps, in a non-profit, government agency, or related environment.


    Deep understanding of evolving digital infrastructure architectures and an ability to develop and articulate an organizational technology innovation vision and roadmap.

    A change-oriented, forward-thinking leader able to thrive in an ambiguous, constantly changing environment.

    Other requirements

    Ability and willingness to travel

    Equity and Salary Disclosure

    Salary Range:
    $120,000 – $150,000

    We believe in practices that create real equity and pay parity regardless of background or identity. We freely discuss compensation with all qualified candidates the first time we interview them.

    Saving the salary discussion for the first conversation allows us to understand the needs of each candidate fully and to ensure that qualified candidates, even those who've historically been overlooked and/or underpaid, don't self-select out of the processes based on salary alone, as our experience and research suggest.

    In addition to those who opt out because they fear the salary may be out of reach for them, we equally don't want to miss out on conversations with candidates who are slightly over the range when, in some cases, the total compensation, including factors such as bonuses, flexibility, and better health benefits, etc.

    may exceed expectations. Finally, as a search firm, we always look for top-notch talent to introduce to our clients.

    Should the salary or any other requirement not be fit, there is often a chance that someone on our team is working on another position you may be a better fit for.

    If you would like to discuss your qualifications for this role and salary and compensation, just call us, and we'd be happy to discuss
