Tysons, Virginia

The College Sports Commission (“CSC”) is seeking a hard-working, organized, and detail-oriented individual to serve as the Manager, Operations & Executive Support. This position will report directly to the Chief Executive Officer and combines duties traditionally assigned to an executive assistant with wider responsibilities across the organization.  The position will also work under the direction of the CSC’s Head of Operations.

The CSC requires employees to work four days per week in-person at its office in Tysons Corner, Virginia, and one day per week remotely.
