Sr Manager, Accounting & Audit - $117,000 - $130,000

Organizational Summary
At the San Francisco AIDS Foundation (SFAF), we are driven by a vision of a future where health justice is a reality for all, particularly for those living with or at risk of HIV. We envision a world where race does not impact one's health and wellness, where the stigma around substance use is eradicated, where an HIV diagnosis does not limit one's quality of life, and where HIV transmission has been completely stopped.

Our mission is dedicated to promoting health, wellness, and social justice for the communities most affected by HIV. We do this through offering sexual health and substance use services, advocating for those in need, and building strong partnerships.
Our strategic plan is built upon five core values that guide our work and our team: Justice, Dignity, Courage, Leadership, and Excellence. We are in search of individuals who are passionate about making a difference, who are leaders in public health, and who are committed to the practice of racial justice. Join us in our fight to create a better future for all.
