Job description

The Maine Coalition Against Sexual Assault (MECASA) is hiring an Operations and Training Coordinator to join our collaborative, thoughtful, and mission-driven team.

This role plays a key part in keeping MECASA's day-to-day operations and statewide training work organized, responsive, and moving forward. The Operations and Training Coordinator helps connect people, systems, logistics, and information across the organization so staff can focus on their program work and member programs and partners can participate in well-coordinated training and learning opportunities.

The Operations and Training Coordinator has primary responsibility for supporting office operations and shared organizational systems, while also coordinating the logistics and systems that support MECASA trainings, webinars, and events. The work is a mix of organization, problem-solving, follow-through, technology support, event logistics, and practical day-to-day support for staff and training facilitators.

This role is a good fit for someone who enjoys making systems work, keeping track of details, supporting other people, and helping things run smoothly behind the scenes.
