Thanks to Ashurkov, our Anti-Corruption Foundation has been overrun by students and graduates of Wharton, who endlessly make presentations, draw charts, and constantly use incomprehensible abbreviations like KPI, QFD, LMFAO, and WTF, while generally bringing in every possible kind of efficient management.
And, by the way, they keep insisting that I sort through the papers on my desk. Apparently they talk a lot about that in business schools.
So, as we’ve been organizing the Foundation’s projects and watching our little operation expand and grow (pretty soon we’ll probably have a subsidiary farm with goats and rabbits), we’ve come to the conclusion that we need an executive director.
Administrative work is taking up far too much of my time (for example, just now I had to read and sign a hellish document called "Regulations on Occupational Safety for Employees"), and I’d rather have more time for a) actual investigative work, b) reflecting on the fate of Russia, c) sitting in a special detention center (for short-term administrative arrests), and d) outdoor games.
So:
We are looking for an Executive Director for the Anti-Corruption Foundation.
Responsibilities:
Day-to-day management of the ACF, including all Foundation projects — RosPil, RosYama, DMP, RosVybori, etc.
Managing all financial, accounting, HR, administrative, and related matters. Planning and reporting.
Communicating with external partners — the Foundation’s donors, public, political, and commercial organizations, etc. — on a wide range of ACF-related issues.
Requirements:
commitment to the cause. A constructive hatred of the regime of crooks and thieves.
a cool-headed attitude toward all the little everyday inconveniences that arise in the course of the Foundation’s work: searches, seizures, surveillance, wiretapping.
firm belief that we will, of course, win.
a higher education degree from a respectable university. Naturally, a "red diploma" (a diploma with honors) and things like an LLM are highly welcome.
fluent English. No "from my heart"-type English — truly fluent, both written and spoken.
successful experience managing teams of more than ten people (either in your own business or in a managerial role within a company).
successful experience managing several different areas from the following list: finance, accounting, HR, legal work, marketing, administration, project management, etc.
the ability to understand politics and stay informed about the social and political life of the country and the world.
experience in business planning, budgeting, preparing the Foundation’s income and expense report (P&L statement), maintaining reporting, etc.
the ability to win over a team and get along with people.
references available upon request.
Salary to be determined based on the interview.

That’s it. Write soon already: I’m eager to get back to reflecting on the fate of Russia, but instead I have payment orders to sign.
