Employment

The MacArthur Foundation is an intellectually stimulating workplace, rich with opportunities to learn, grow, and contribute. In pursuit of a world that is more just, verdant, and peaceful, we are driven by a set of core values—Creativity; Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion; Empathy; Integrity; and Learning—that shape how we approach our work, how we partner with others, and how we contribute to the world around us.

The Foundation strives to have an inclusive workforce that reflects the perspectives and experiences of the communities we serve.

We regularly review our practices to evaluate how to reach a broad group of individuals from diverse perspectives and viewpoints to help ensure we are acting in accordance with the Just Imperative and our values. We hold ourselves to a high standard and hold ourselves to the same standards we require of our grantees.
