The successful candidate will be at the forefront of a human-rights-centered HIV agenda, responsible for advocacy, education, and policy development. This role involves ensuring the active participation of the organization's members in national and international policy forums, as well as overseeing the development of programs that advance nursing education in the context of HIV/AIDS treatment, prevention, and research. The Executive Director will also lead fundraising efforts, manage a significant annual operating budget, and provide strategic leadership to meet the organization's mission and long-term goals.
