We believe cash transfers are one of the most scalable, cost-effective, and dignified forms of aid, with the research to back it up. Our work has been covered by The Economist, NPR, TED, and The Washington Post. We are one of Time100’s Most Influential Companies of 2026.

Our culture is candid, analytical, and non-hierarchical. We support high ownership and real professional growth. Curious about what it's really like to work here? Read our values and hear from the people who do. If they resonate, this could be a great fit!

This role is fully remote. Travel requirements are outlined below. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of employment Visas in the U.S. at this time.

About this Role

Rx Kids is a universal, unconditional cash prescription program providing $1,500 during pregnancy and $500/month for the first year of a child's life to every expecting parent and infant in an Rx Kids community. Launched in Flint, Michigan in partnership with Michigan State University, Rx Kids has generated rigorous evidence of positive impacts at the community level and is currently expanding to new states, including Ohio.

The U.S. Program Manager will play a key role in driving and executing operations for the Rx Kids program, with an initial focus on Ohio operations. Primary responsibilities include leading end-to-end project management, coordinating with internal and external stakeholders, recruiting and managing field teams, and driving operational excellence and improvement. Managers may be asked to support partnerships and positioning through research, contributing to proposals, and occasionally will own relationships with funders and partners. This role will ideally manage Ohio operations shortly after program launch in early September and will start with a compressed onboarding window as the team transitions from launch mode to steady-state. Successful candidates should be comfortable getting up to speed quickly and taking ownership with limited ramp-up time.

The Program Manager will work closely with the U.S. Programs and Partnerships Manager, Rx Kids Program Associates and the U.S. leadership team, as well as cross-functionally with programs, fundraising, and technology teams.
