Dear Debbie,

We would like to hire you for the job we sent over to you, in essence make
everything work so the program people can get the agenda accomplished.  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 – Grants Manager and Chief Administrative Officer.
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’t 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’t imagine he won’t be thrilled but for this
senior a job I need to check that box.  He is in the country so it won’t 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.

Warm Regards,

Molly
