  • Translate the plan into an operational roadmap with milestones, metrics, owners, and funding requirements.
  • Define and refine milestones, success metrics, funding needs, and critical gaps where no credible executor currently exists.

  • Ability to work effectively with senior government, foundation, and private-sector leaders.
  • Strong relationships across philanthropy, government, academia, and/or industry.
  • Experience in fundraising, funder relations, or large-scale resource mobilization.
