    Subject line: Application for Executive Director

    The Keystone Research Center (KRC), a Harrisburg-based, Pennsylvania-focused 501(c)(3), is recruiting an Executive Director to lead the organization into its next chapter as its founding Executive Director steps down after 30 years.

    The board of directors seeks a visionary leader to solidify KRC’s role as a thought-leader on policies that benefit and lift up all people of Pennsylvania. Given the longstanding challenge of inequality and as our economy changes with the rise of AI and transition to carbon neutrality, KRC’s new leader will guide the organization to a place of prominence in debates about how to achieve shared prosperity, hire and supervise staff, and have responsibility for the organization’s compliance with legal regulations governing 501(c)(3) organizations.

    The board also seeks a candidate who can bring KRC’s vision to new funders to grow our ability to make an impact on policy in PA. The position is based in Harrisburg. Candidates commit to being in Harrisburg often enough to perform the job effectively.

    Initial interviews will be scheduled starting in March. The position will remain open until it is filled.
