Head of Programme Management

As our Director of Programs , you are the heartbeat of our daily operations and a vital visionary on our executive leadership team. you will be right in the center of the energy, driving excellence across all programs. One day you’ll be mentoring an incredibly passionate team of educators and AmeriCorps members; the next, you’ll be collaborating with school districts, mapping out long-term growth with our CEO, or shaping the very budget that makes these life-changing experiences possible. Instead of hosting isolated programs, it embeds data-driven literacy interventions and academic resources directly into existing community camps, effectively turning them into high-impact learning sites. Ultimately, while typical programs focus primarily on safe engagement, SummerCollab specifically engineers its ecosystem to combat summer learning loss and close the achievement gap for all students.

Inspire & Mentor: Lead, support, and uplift a dedicated team of program staff and AmeriCorps members, giving them the tools and confidence to shine.

Cultivate deep, trusted partnerships with local school districts, community leaders, and families to expand our reach and make sure no child is left behind.

You’re the kind of person who walks into a room and instantly lifts the energy, but you also have the sharp organizational mind needed to manage complex moving pieces.

You are fiercely dedicated to youth advocacy. You deeply believe in student-centered learning and have a track record of working with kids (especially grades K-8).

You love to grow and help others do the same. You bring a bachelor's degree (or equivalent experience) and at least 3+ years of management or project leadership experience. If you have a background in non-profits, education equity, or AmeriCorps grants, that’s a massive plus!

Time to Recharge: Full-time, year-round benefits including paid holidays, vacation, and sick days.

A Vibrant Environment: This role requires you to be fully present and on-site daily in New Castle and at our active program locations across New Castle County—putting you right where the magic happens every single day.
