    Description

    Chief Financial Officer

    OUR NATIONAL CONVERSATION is a new kind of media outlet. We're nonpartisan, we believe in truth, we're all very civil, we just want to solve problems. Republicans, Democrats, Independents -- all are welcome here.

    We are largely run by student interns, and we now want "more adults in the room." We now seek a "real" CFO.

    We have very little financial activity right now. We want to raise big money and change that.

    To start, we need someone to oversee our bookkeeping, our bank accounts, our tax filing and any nonprofit (IRS) paperwork. We use QuickBooks.

    If you want to help us raise money, we'd love that, too. We can pay you a success fee.

    You will get outstanding experience. Maybe you can parlay that into a bigger, paying job. It happens.

    Plus you'll be doing something good for America. You will be helping develop America's future leaders and together we can help reduce toxic partisanship in America.

    If we raise money, our intent is to start paying people, at least on a part-time basis, so this could turn into something more. Our ability to raise money will largely be a function of how good a job we're doing, so everyone's contribution matters. We think, with one big push, 2026 could be our breakout year.
