Okay, let’s break this down. David has 4+ years of experience in policy and non-profit management, which is a solid foundation. His skills in grant writing, community outreach, and human rights are also in demand. However, his role as Special Assistant to the President and CEO at HIAS is likely to be more focused on administrative and support functions, which might impact his earning potential. Considering his experience and skills, a rate of $125 per hour seems reasonable, but it’s on the lower end of the spectrum for someone with his background. Maybe a more realistic estimate would be $175–$225 per hour, but without more specific information on his responsibilities and the going rate for similar positions in his location, I’m playing it safe.
