About CLTR

The Centre for Long-Term Resilience (CLTR) is an independent, non-profit think tank working to transform global resilience to extreme AI and biological risks. We work with governments and institutions, offering evidence-based advice to improve understanding, decision-making and governance on some of the most pressing issues of our time.

The role

We're hiring two Operations Associates — one to sit within our AI Policy Unit, one within our Biosecurity Policy Unit. Embedded in your respective team, you'll provide a flexible mix of operational, administrative and project support that keeps the unit running well and frees up policy staff to focus on their work.

It's a genuinely varied role. Day to day you might be coordinating a grant proposal, managing a Director's diary, tracking a publication pipeline, or improving a process that's been getting in everyone's way. You'll also have regular touchpoints with CLTR's central Operations function and scope to contribute to organisation-wide projects.

This is a hands-on generalist role, well suited to someone who wants to develop their skills in project management and operations within a mission-driven environment.

Responsibilities include:

Operations and administration

• Coordinate team meetings, events and travel logistics
• Manage the unit Director's diary and act as a reliable gatekeeper for their time
• Oversee the team calendar and support planning of unit-level activities
• Coordinate the publication pipeline, including liaising with editors and designers
• Maintain filing systems, knowledge management processes and information security procedures
• Support onboarding of new team members and track unit-level budgets and expenses

Project coordination

• Track progress across multiple concurrent projects and ensure updates are shared in a streamlined way
• Log activity and impact across the unit in collaboration with the Delivery Manager

• Exceptional attention to detail, for calendars, logistics, written documents and presentations
• Ability to produce clear written content for different audiences, including funding proposals
• High level of discretion and comfort with information security protocols
• Proactive, high-agency approach — you follow through on commitments and don't wait to be told what needs doing
• Strong interpersonal skills and the ability to build relationships across teams and with external partners
• Genuine commitment to CLTR's mission
• Eligible to live and work in the UK (we are unable to sponsor visas for this role)

Desirable:

• Experience in a non-profit, think tank or similarly mission-driven organisation
• Executive assistant experience
• Familiarity with AI safety or biosecurity policy
• Knowledge of project management methodologies such as PRINCE2 or Agile

This role is probably not right for you if you're looking for significant strategic or line management responsibility, or if your goal is to move into policy research. We're looking for someone who is genuinely motivated by operational excellence and wants to build a career in operations and/or project management.
