We’re seeking candidates for the following position:

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER, TIME BANKING ORGANIZATION

The Freakonomics Radio Network is looking for a Chief Executive Officer to join  Freakonomics Radio and Andrew Yang’s Humanity Forward Foundation in making the human-centered economy a reality. 

We’re convinced that our current monetary economy is going to grind us up, but what if there was a different way to measure and exchange value? One idea that we are fans of is called time banking.

If you’ve listened to our episode “The World’s Most Valuable Unused Resource,” you’ve heard about the history of time banking, and its failure to take off on a grand scale. We’re looking to give the idea another shot, and we’re searching for someone with a proven track record of leading and successfully growing an organization. Success will mean building a time banking model that communities across the U.S. want to implement. 

You might be a seasoned entrepreneur already, or have a background in the nonprofit sector; maybe you’ve worked as a public servant in local politics. What matters most is a strong background in executive leadership and operations management. 

The ideal candidate will be just as comfortable in a local community meeting as he or she is in front of a group of donors, and confidently know how to bring philanthropic, corporate, and government interests to the same table. An MBA or other advanced degree is highly desirable. 

Our team and this position are based in New York. We expect the initial salary to be between $100,000 and $200,000.

Financial support for this position will be provided by the Humanity Forward Foundation. 

If you’re interested, please email a résumé and a cover letter to time@humanityforwardfoundation.org with “C.E.O.” in the subject line.
