Director of Human Resources

Natural Resource Governance Institute

The Natural Resource Governance Institute (NRGI)’s mission is to secure a future where countries rich in oil, gas and minerals achieve sustainable, inclusive development – one where people receive lasting benefits from extractives, and the negative impacts associated with the sector are minimized. Intelligent data, capacity building, policy analysis and advice are the key tools we use to achieve impact. Our international team of more than 90 country and issue experts, lawyers, economists and governance specialists contribute evidence-based knowledge, advocacy, and technical expertise to make gains for the public good.

Director of Human Resources

London or New York City

£90,000 (London), $149,000 (New York City)

People are the heart and mind of our organization. They are the source of our credibility, our profile and our impact. We have been incredibly fortunate to attract and retain a phenomenal global team spanning over 30 nationalities and speaking 11 languages.

We are currently pivoting our strategy to ensure that we are relevant and responsive, and to meet the growing demand for our contributions. Excellent human resource leadership will be critical to our ongoing impact and success.

The role is challenging and unique. NRGI is at once a small organization – with a budget of $13m and 90 staff around the world – yet, also with levels of complexity that accompany a truly global organization with a presence across 20 countries. We are therefore seeking someone with significant international human resources leadership and people management experience, and who enjoys being both strategic and hands on in their work.

As an ambitious, forward thinking Director of Human Resources you will have the chance to shape NRGI in ways that advance diversity and inclusion, our staff’s success and wellbeing, and help achieve a more just, equitable and sustainable world.
