People Operations Director, The AI Access Initiative

Build and scale people operations for an early-stage AI-for-development organization, managing recruitment, talent density, and HR infrastructure across multiple countries.
- Own end-to-end recruiting: sourcing, assessment design, offer construction, and hiring manager coaching to build high-quality pipelines.
- Establish performance systems, feedback processes, and succession planning to maintain talent density and address underperformance decisively.
- Design onboarding, compensation frameworks, and compliance infrastructure across low- and middle-income country jurisdictions.
- Build cultural formation from recruitment through employee tenure, reinforcing organizational values at key moments.
- Requires 5+ years in people operations or talent management; experience scaling organizations and working across multiple geographies essential.

Evidence Action scales cost-effective, evidence-based programs that reduce the burden of poverty for millions of people across Africa and Asia.
