Who We Are:
17A is a new type of management consulting firm. We come from places like McKinsey, Palantir, JP Morgan Philanthropies, and venture-backed Healthcare startups. We share a common goal: improving the quality of government and social services. 17A believes that trust in government is something to be continuously built and earned, through strong service delivery.
We have a dynamic core team, and partner with Consultants, known internally as Project-Based Team Members, to bring the best combination of expertise to what we do. Our team has varied skills from a range of industries and experiences, including management consulting, technology and analytics, and public service. If you've spent the early part of your career in consulting or a fast-paced analytical environment and you're ready to apply those skills to something with direct civic impact, 17A is for you.
The Opportunity:
17A is supporting a large Bay Area county agency on a technology and digital services transformation effort. This is a fully embedded, on-site role — not parachuting in. You'll work inside the agency's digital innovation team, sitting alongside Deputy-level leadership to help the county deliver on its mission to make government more human, more responsive, and more digital. This position is a contract role with the potential to convert to full-time after a few months.
This agency has taken a distinctive approach to transformation: rather than buying expensive new systems and hoping for the best, it's doing the hard, human-centered work of dismantling bureaucracy, redesigning how services are delivered, and building a digital culture from the inside. A core initiative — which brings departments through rapid, structured sprints to identify and address service delivery friction — will be a major focus of this role.
This is a chief-of-staff style position for a sharp, early-career operator ready to take on real ownership. You'll help senior leaders turn strategy into action — managing complex initiatives across departments, facilitating working sessions, and communicating progress clearly to executive and operational audiences.
What You'll Do
- Serve in a chief-of-staff capacity to Deputy-level leaders within the innovation team, helping translate priorities into structured plans and concrete next steps
- Support coordination and execution of digital transformation sprints, including logistics, stakeholder engagement, documentation, and follow-through on recommendations
- Facilitate working sessions with department staff and senior leaders to map current-state processes, identify friction points, and co-design improvements
- Lead and coordinate cross-functional workstreams, tracking progress, surfacing blockers, and keeping stakeholders aligned across a large, multi-department organization
- Prepare executive-level communications including briefings, memos, presentations, and decision documents for senior agency leadership
- Conduct rapid research and analysis to support emerging decisions and evolving priorities
- Help build the internal documentation, playbooks, and operational systems the innovation team needs to scale its impact countywide
- Operate as a collaborative, low-ego team member who is genuinely embedded in the agency's culture and mission
Who You Are
You're 1–2 years into your career and you're looking for a role where you can do meaningful work and see the results directly. You might be a current or former:
- Business Analyst or Associate at a management consulting firm
- Fellow or analyst at a public sector-focused organization (e.g., a government innovation lab, a civic tech organization, or a public agency)
- Analyst in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment where you built strong project management and communication muscles
The Skillset:
You'll thrive in this role if you:
- Are energized by the mission — you genuinely care about improving how government works and the people it serves
- Are comfortable operating with ambiguity and building structure where there isn't any yet
- Have strong project management instincts and can keep multiple workstreams moving simultaneously
- Can communicate clearly and credibly with both frontline staff and senior leaders
- Understand that real transformation requires engineering culture, not just deploying technology
- Are ready to be embedded — not just advisory — and want to see the direct impact of your work
- Are based in or willing to relocate to the Bay Area
Bonus if you have:
- Familiarity with local or county government operations
- Experience with digital services, human-centered design, or service delivery improvement
- Prior exposure to process redesign, organizational change, or operational improvement
- Interest in civic technology and the future of public service delivery
Location:

Position Overview: The Executive Editor, working with the Managing Editor as the newsroom leadership team, will shape the next generation of multiple news and information products offered by Lookout Santa Cruz and Lookout more widely, applying and growing the Lookout Local journalism model, making sure we meet both our mission and business performance needs.
At Lookout Local, we’ve figured out a bunch of things well – real and early-on community engagement, multi-stream revenue, local advertising and bedrock breaking news-to-accountability through the day local journalism. And we appreciate the national recognition of our work from our Pulitzer to our fast-ramp launch and model-building in Oregon. But that’s just a beginning in Santa Cruz and in Eugene-Springfield, and as we plot next communities to serve.
For this position, we’re seeking a spirited, top editor/news product innovator ready to work with great colleagues to take Lookout Santa Cruz specifically and Lookouts overall to next levels of journalism, community service and revenue generation. We understand the fast-evolving connections in that holy trinity, and believe that harnessing the latest tech/thinking (including mastering local AI application, on which we’ve laid a great foundation already) is fundamental to our future. At this point, we focus on three key types of products: site, app and newsletter, and this leader, working with both our senior team and newsroom will build on those — and what’s to come.
At our two Lookouts, now approaching 40 strong people in number, we pride ourselves on being both fiercely mission-driven and fiercely business-driven, and know that only those local news organizations (like our friends and cohorts in the Knight Growth Challenge Fund, with Texas Tribune now the eighth member after we joined as the seventh) will prosper in the now-faster changing ways all of us find and consume news. We’re ready for the task, and seek a collaborative, accomplished audience- and product-focused colleague to join us in this adventure.
Ideally, we’d like the candidate to be located and (relocatable) to the Bay Area, if not Santa Cruz itself, able to join us in person at least a couple of days a week. The ideal candidate possesses a good understanding of the differentiation of Lookout ‘s model and a passion for building atop it, with the well-demonstrated experience to be successful at a high national quality level. We’re asking a lot – both a history of newsroom leadership excellence and a proven product orientation that matches with the tech of our times.

Builds upon the Lookout Playbook, applying both audience strategy and judgment that maximizes the best use of now-emerging technologies. Working with the managing editor, focuses on the next phase of our coverage plans, as we increase staffing, leading to the updating of a 2025-2026 community news and information plan. In this strategic content and product analysis, and product development, works as a member of Lookout’s overall senior leadership team as well as with its product and revenue teams as well.
2) Leading, along with colleagues, Lookout’s expansion efforts to other cities. Patterned on Lookout’s highly successful fundraising, planning, hiring and deployment for Lookout Eugene-Springfield, strategizes next markets.

Become a familiar face in civic and business circles, a company presence that augments what our correspondents, ad salespeople and community engagement people do. Include creating useful community partnerships, talks to civic groups, moderation of events, 1:1 lunches with elected, business and non-profit leaders. Works with the managing editor and community and student engagement manager on a scheduled, steady, and strategic, stream of Lookout Listens and issue-oriented forums. Nationally, becomes another key spokesperson for Lookout’s success and expansion strategy.
4) Leads, with managing editor, next plans for development and training in the newsroom, creating a development program for journalists, individually, and collectively, setting up a steady cadence of learning/training programs. The executive editor role requires a demonstrated, collegial leader, with substantial newsroom management, well-tested digital and audience experience, and one who excels in building further on both a set of products and a culture of excellence and collaboration. Working with the managing editor, who will direct the newsroom day to day, the ideal candidate both values Lookout’s early success and offers a vision of its next steps, steps that are both mission- and business-building. Deeply using audience analytics, the ideal candidate will proactively assess and recommend initiatives that do both, using emerging digital tools to their optimal points, and work closely with both the newsroom and Lookout’s senior team to advance quickly the work that must be done to push forward Lookout locally and nationally.
