The Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security sits at the center of the most consequential security debates of our time. We are looking for a Vice President who is ready to lead the Center into its next chapter. That means deep, hard-won expertise in defense, security, and geopolitics; the entrepreneurial energy to build and grow programs that outlast the moment; the managerial instincts to develop and retain an already exceptional team; and an authentic conviction that we are at our strongest when we are working alongside our global community of partners and allies.
This is not a position for someone who wants to simply manage the present – it is a role for someone who wants to shape the future.
Overview
The next Vice President has the opportunity to lead one of the world’s premier national security centers during an unprecedented period of geopolitical change. The individual will provide superb leadership in honoring the life and legacy of General Brent Scowcroft, the Center’s namesake, with cutting-edge, innovative programming in support of the Atlantic Council’s mission. The Vice President will serve as one of the Atlantic Council’s leading strategists and be a key “voice” on global security and defense policy issues across the organization. As the head of the Scowcroft Center, the Vice President leads the Scowcroft Center’s diverse array of programming and manage the Center’s bipartisan team of over 40 resident staff.
This position is based in our Washington, DC, headquarters. The Atlantic Council offers a competitive compensation package commensurate with experience, education, and organizational equity, with offers from $250,000 to $300,000. Applications submitted by September 30, 2026, will be prioritized for consideration.

Integrate relevant board directors, including Scowcroft Center Advisory Council members and partnering entities into the Center’s programming to leverage expertise and expand the Center’s influence and impact. Oversee and manage the Center’s finances and administrative obligations. Business Development: Expand the program’s financial base by sustaining current support and pursuing additional opportunities with corporations, government organizations, international organizations, foundations, and individuals. Steward relationships with the Scowcroft Center’s network of public, private, and non-government donors. Outreach and Communication: Represent the Council externally, particularly with key government and international actors, as well as media, donors, and others. Provide expert analysis and commentary, with the aim of shaping policy outcomes and impact.

This includes renewing historic and longstanding gifts, stewarding partners, and attracting and securing new donors to fuel the work of the Scowcroft Center and the Council more broadly. Bringing a Global Mindset: The Vice President will sustain and grow the Scowcroft Center’s strong financial trajectory through partner management and the development of new business across the Center’s six initiatives.
Internally
Serving as a Trusted Advisor: The Vice President will serve as a trusted advisor and thought partner to the Executive Vice President, members of the board, and the CEO. Providing Leadership and Developing Internal Talent: The Vice President will mentor the next generation of global leaders through the management of the 40-plus full-time Scowcroft Center staff and a global network of fellows.
