As we mentioned through our various pots of money we spent 150 million last year and expect to be at an annual average of 250 million a year within the next eighteen months. We have no senior vice presidents so the title would be Vice president and General Counsel. The only other vice president is Chris. You would report to me but especially for the first six months or so you would work directly with Chris to learn what is needed. You would have two direct reports =E2=80=93 Grants Manager and Chief Administrative O= fficer. My assistant is also the office manager and for that part of the job reports to the administrative officer. The three of us (Chris, you and me) would be the management team to the extent we have one, and would have a standing short meeting weekly to ensure that everything was working smoothly. Because we hadn=E2=80=99t thought we would be lucky enough to find someone = so perfect for the job so quickly there are two contingencies. First I have to talk to Hansjorg. I can=E2=80=99t imagine he won=E2=80=99t be thrilled = but for this senior a job I need to check that box. He is in the country so it won=E2= =80=99t be like reaching him last week. Second we had not figured out a pay range yet. I can assure you it would be more than you make now but I would want to look at comparables and have a discussion with you. Please feel free to call either of us with any questions. Chris cell number is 970 946 4961 and mine is 202 669 8528. Home is 301 951 4277 and work is below. Please give it some thought. I think we could have a major impact for good on the country and the world.
