About the role

Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment at Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability seeks a Research and Program Manager for the Better Bricks initiative. The role leads a multi-site portfolio across Bangladesh and India, translating science into policy impact on health and climate. The position manages budgets, partnerships, data systems, and compliance while advancing strategic priorities with the Director. A PhD and strong cross-cultural collaboration are essential.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
