• Facilitate community-building through webinars and the ConnectED educator platform, promoting peer learning and dialogue among participating schools.
• Attend conferences and events, strengthening relationships with educators and school leaders while representing ConnectED.
  
  

Requirements:

• Excellent Communication & Facilitation Skills: Clear, persuasive communicator with experience leading meetings and discussions.
• Data & Process Management: Comfortable tracking engagement and managing records in CRM systems (Salesforce preferred).
• Tech-Savvy & Adaptable: Proficient with digital tools and quick to learn new platforms and systems.
• Passion for Education & Mission Alignment: Deep commitment to supporting schools on complex topics including Jewish history, antisemitism, and the Israeli-Palestinian story.
• Collaborative & Proactive Approach: Team-oriented, self-motivated, and able to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• Knowledge of Independent Schools: Experience in K–12 education or working with schools is a plus.
