Dynam-ovative

Pew Charitable Trusts:
Just so you know, we could not find this fresh-looking-on-Yahoo! Hotjobs Government Relations Manager opportunity with Availity on their own career site (at least as of this a.m.). Healthcare information network business; DC or Central time zone locations possible.

New-to-newish (in that order) opportunities (probably awesome) with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation – can also search here using DC location or req # noted:
Somebody in our ultra-educated readership must have a PhD in Political Science that they would like to leverage for the Lecturer, Government Department gig with Christopher Newport University, Newport News, Va. CNU particularly covets candidates with a teaching/research background in international political economy and a regional focus on East Asia, South Asia or the Middle East.

American Association of University ProfessorsSenior Program Officer, Department of Organizing and Services – one year term – $50k-$55k – Berkley, CA – apply by Dec. 17

The Information Technology Information Council (est. 2006) has new openings for:
  • Communications Director

  • Intern opportunity (even further down) – project to catalog our numerous policy proposals – remotely-based
The American Society for Microbiology seeks US Federal Grants & Budgets Manager – experience with federal grant application and monitoring, International donors preferred; knowledge of interest global health, international development, or related field is highly desirable. Your personal budget will swell (we hope) from the $70-$75k compensation noted.

Center for Strategic & International Studies:
The Carmen Group has a spot in the bench for a highly-motivated Senior Associate in their Water, Environment, Transportation, and Energy Carmen Group.
