Location: New York, NY
Organization: TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design. It started out (in 1984) as a conference bringing together people from those three worlds. Since then its scope has become ever broader.
The annual conference now brings together the world's most fascinating thinkers and doers, who are challenged to give the talk of their lives (in 18 minutes).
Position: TED is planning a new, expanded fellowship program, and we're looking for an experienced, global-minded candidate to lead it.
Qualifications: You should have exceptional management skills and a proven track record of starting and running programs at this scale. Experience in education, leadership-training, and event-production all helpful. Curiosity and a broad interest in the world -- including science/technology, business, the arts, global development -- are also key.
