Program Associate, Environment

JPB’s mission is to advance opportunity and justice in the US by reducing poverty, sustaining and enriching our environments, and furthering breakthrough medical research. Through our three core areas of focus – Poverty, Environment, and Medical Research – we work to eliminate systemic injustices that prevent people from thriving. We are dedicated to long-lasting, systemic change. That means we commit to our partners for the long haul, trusting in the strength and vision of the organizations we support to address some of our country’s most entrenched problems.

JPB was founded in 2011 by Barbara Picower, the current president of the Foundation and Chair of the Board with funds bequeathed by her late husband, Jeffry. Over the last 10 years, JPB has grown to be one of the largest US foundations, awarding over $1B in grants across our programs.

The JPB Foundation (JPB) seeks nominations and applications for the position of Program Associate, Environment. Reporting to the Program Manager, Environment, the Program Associate will provide programmatic and administrative support to Program Officers in the Environment Program and work as part of a collaborative team to strengthen the operations and administration of the program and The JPB Foundation overall.
