The Global Challenge mission is to create competent global citizens by engaging high-school students around the world in year-long projects to solve complex global problems. Teams of students collaborate using the internet, and can win college scholarships.

The Global Challenge (www.globalchallengeaward.org), having recently received a $900,000 National Science Foundation grant, is seeking to expand across the US. We seek a talented entrepreneur to help deliver a quality program and create sustainable growth.

The ideal candidate would have an MPA, and a track-record of academic, professional and personal success. Strong writing and communication skills are mandatory, as is an entrepreneurial attitude and a desire to travel around the globe. This position requires a person with high-energy and a love of long hard work hours.

The job requires skills in several areas, but particularly in fundraising, public relations and general management. Candidates must show skills in building a network of donors, and an ability to excite and motivate supporters to give generously.

Interested candidates should send a resume and letter to cdeluca@transegy.com.
