Primary Responsibilities

History Museum on the Square is seeking a Deputy Director & Chief of Staff to serve as the Executive
Director’s second-in-command and senior internal leadership partner.
The Executive Director leads HMS’s institutional vision, community relationships, fundraising, public
presence, and long-term direction. The Deputy Director & Chief of Staff makes sure the organization
has the people, systems, processes, resources, and accountability necessary to turn that direction into
results.
The Deputy Director & Chief of Staff will provide leadership across the museum’s internal operations,

to be told what to do at every step.
