Job description

Picture your first ninety days as a Librarian at Public Policy Institute: real ownership, Accountability at the center, and a team in Vancouver, WA ready to back you. This WA role reads like an upgrade — $81,000 - $115,000, contract hours, 4 years valued, and a path that does not dead-end.

Key Responsibilities

• Own the follow-through after the general meeting ends
• Leave every general system a little better than you found it
• Trade quick wins for flexible fixes when the math favors patience
• Push back, respectfully, when a Strategic Planning shortcut will cost us later
• Keep Public Policy Institute's Prioritization pipeline humming without constant hand-holding
• Follow safety protocols and best practices at all times
• Own assigned projects from kickoff through final delivery
• Earn the trust to make deeply technical judgment calls without a committee

What You'll Bring

• A track record of quietly-relentless delivery in a contract structure
• The discipline to document while it's fresh, not after it's forgotten
• Reliable, accountable, and committed to following through
• Practical command of Collaboration, with bonus points for Strategic Planning
• Demonstrated comfort presenting to mid-level leadership
• A teammate's instinct to unblock others before yourself
