Panorama is a platform for social change driven by audacious thinking, radical collaboration, and bold action. We help our partners navigate multiple pathways from vision to impact based on their needs. Our mission is to maximize social impact by partnering with visionary leaders to co‑develop solutions to change systems. Panorama’s value proposition is helping partners to operate in smarter, more impactful, and more efficient ways.

Panorama’s values are built on four core principles:
Vision, Integrity, Partnership, Impact.

• Panorama Global, a social impact nonprofit that empowers changemakers through radical collaboration,
• Panorama Strategy, a social purpose consultancy that accelerates progress for partners through audacious thinking, and

Are you a strategic operator and problem solver who thrives at the intersection of community impact, program design, and partnership management? Do you believe that improving health and wellbeing begins with meeting people where they are—removing barriers, strengthening access, and building trust? If so, this role may be for you.

We are seeking a Program Officer (“PO”) to serve as an embedded team member with Mid Pen Housing, a nonprofit developer, owner, and manager of high‑quality affordable housing.

• Staff Changemakers Fund – funds staff‑led projects that bring innovative, site‑specific health and wellness ideas to life.
• Mobile Dental Care Program – improves oral health access by delivering high‑quality dental care directly to Mid Pen communities.
• Food Security Program – reduces food insecurity and increases access to fresh, culturally relevant food by establishing on‑site pantries.
