Help Build New York City’s First Children’s Science Museum
Complete Play Discovery is expanding from an inclusive playground into a landmark family destination in Lower Manhattan: a Children’s Science Museum, Inclusive School, Teen Innovation Lounge, Sports Center, and Parent Lounge — all under one roof.
We’re seeking an exceptionally organized, proactive, and mission-driven professional to work directly with our Founder & CEO as their right hand.
This is a hybrid role: roughly half executive support, half strategic projects. You’ll run the CEO’s day-to-day while also driving fundraising, partnerships, and project coordination on a transformative build.
What You’ll Do:
Executive Support
- Coordinate the CEO’s priorities, meetings, and project follow-up.
- Prepare presentations, proposals, and communications.
- Assist with special projects and organizational coordination as needed.
Strategic Projects
- Support fundraising initiatives, prepare donor materials, conduct research, and assist with partnership and sponsorship opportunities.
- Research prospective foundations, partners, sponsors, and community organizations, and help prepare outreach materials and follow-up communications.
- Coordinate with architects, designers, consultants, vendors, and exhibit producers
Who You Are
- Exceptionally organized with sharp attention to detail
- An outstanding written and verbal communicator
- Strong in research, project management, and juggling multiple priorities
- Experienced in nonprofit fundraising, partnerships, or donor relations (a significant plus)
- Proficient with Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, presentation tools, and AI productivity tools
- Energized by a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
- Genuinely passionate about inclusion, children’s education, STEAM, and community impact
Role Details
- Hybrid NYC role with flexible schedule and some in-office days
- Reports directly to the Founder & CEO
- Occasional evening events, including donor gatherings and our annual gala
- Salary: $70,000–$85,000 based on experience, plus performance bonus
- Significant growth opportunities as the organization expands
- Direct impact working alongside the Founder & CEO on a transformative project for children and families
- Resume
- Personalized cover letter explaining why this role and our mission excite you
- Earliest start date
- LinkedIn profile (preferred)
