Role Description We’re hiring a full-time Program Manager to lead the planning and delivery of CaDC’s projects and strategic initiatives—from writing proposals, to managing project delivery, partner coordination, and ensuring outcomes. You’ll be an organized leader who can engage diverse stakeholders to bring projects to life on schedule, comfortable bridging technical teams and water domain experts. Working knowledge of data and the California water sector is a strong plus, or the appetite to develop both quickly. This role is responsible for grants, contracts, and strategic programs and projects. You’ll write proposals, manage deliverables, oversee applied data science projects (without doing the engineering yourself), and lead implementation of special initiatives that span technical teams, member agencies, consultants, partner nonprofits, and state agencies. You’re not the engineer building the tools; you’re the person making sure the right tools get built—on time, with the right partners, and in service of CaDC’s member-driven priorities. You’ll report to the Chief Data Officer and work closely with our Membership Coordinator, who handles member relationships, events, and tool adoption. Examples of current and upcoming work: - DROPS: a grant-funded tool to streamline stormwater capture site pre-analysis. - Wavelet: an existing software product, currently focused on analysis of customer demand and efficiency data, with opportunities to grow and expand. - Applied research projects with member agencies and partners. - An ongoing initiative to streamline urban water reporting across California. - Educational course development (e.g., AI for Water Management). Qualifications - 5+ years of program or project management experience (nonprofit, public sector, consulting, or utility-adjacent preferred). - Demonstrated experience writing successful grant or other project proposals and administering grants or contracts. - Strong track record managing multi-stakeholder projects with competing priorities and limited staff. - Experience managing consultants and vendors against scopes, budgets, and timelines. - Exceptional written and verbal communication; ability to translate complex technical work into clear, decision-useful updates. - Comfort building structure where none exists; high organizational maturity. - Comfort working remotely and asynchronously using tools like email, Slack, Notion, Asana, Zoom, and MS Teams. - Bachelor’s degree in a relevant subject or equivalent professional experience. Requirements - Familiarity with California’s water sector, water utility regulatory reporting, or public-agency data environments. - Experience working alongside technical teams (data engineers, analysts) without needing to be the technical implementer. - Experience supporting technical assistance programs, capacity building, or training delivery. - Coalition or multi-nonprofit/agency stakeholder experience. Benefits - Target salary: $110,000 - $140,000 / year. - Medical, dental, and vision insurance, plus the rest of CaDC’s standard benefits package. Application Process - Application: If you’re interested, fill out the application by the deadline. We’ll ask a few questions to get to know you and understand your interest in CaDC. - Intro chat: A short conversation with the Chief Data Officer to talk about CaDC, the role, and whether it might be a fit. - Interview: Candidates who pass the intro chat will be invited to a longer interview to dig into your experience. - Possible second interview / in-person meeting: Get to know more about the org. - Final decision: We will confirm the timeline in more detail when we begin scheduling interviews. Applications will be reviewed on an ongoing basis. Anticipated closing date: June 12, 2026. We are committed to fostering a culture of inclusion, and we encourage individuals with diverse backgrounds and experiences to apply. We especially encourage applications from underrepresented groups and are an equal opportunity employer. If you have specific needs or circumstances that require accommodation, please contact us.
