Salary, Benefits, and How to Apply

At the Centre for Public Impact, we are committed to countering pay inequality and recently completed a global compensation benchmarking process to ensure that we're paying our staff fairly and well for the roles that they hold and therefore, salaries at CPI are non-negotiable. Salary rises with experience, which includes work experience, educational experience, and lived experience.

CPI offers comprehensive benefits to its employees including a range of high-quality health, dental, and vision plans for individuals; employer contribution as applicable; 1,500 per year in dedicated professional development funds; generous paid leave and public holidays; paid parental leave and extended illness leave; and a year-end organisation-wide closure. We are a remote-first organisation and anticipate this position will require approximately 15% domestic and international travel.

To advance our purpose of reimagining government so that it works for everyone, CPI seeks to attract and support a diversity of backgrounds, experience, talent and thought. For this reason, we encourage applicants from all backgrounds to apply. This includes candidates that have previously found it hard to be considered for other positions on the basis of their qualifications, disabilities, personal background or life events. If you would like to apply for the position but see a barrier to joining us, please do apply and we will work with you to find a solution. You can also read our full Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Policy here.

We are using Applied in order to reduce bias in our hiring process and ensure that we are shortlisting candidates based on their skills and ideas. Please note that we do not ask for a cover letter and instead, the application requires four paragraph-length answers. Your application will be anonymised for review. Although we ask for your CV, it will not be looked at until further down the process. Please apply by the closing date of October 2, 23:59 Central Daylight Time as the portal closes automatically and we will not be able to reopen it.

CPI is an equal opportunity employer. Applicants will not be discriminated against because of race, colour, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, religion, national origin, citizenship status, disability, ancestry, marital status, veteran status, medical condition or any protected category prohibited by local, state or federal laws.
