MEJA is seeking a Movement Organizer who is committed to building power and solidarity among movements, coalitions, partner organizations, and allies through base-building and movement-building strategies. MEJA is a coalition of member organizations led by youth, parents, educators and community members and together we advocate for and protect high-quality public education for all students to thrive and meet their full potential. MEJA is also an anchoring organization of the MA Fight Back Table (MA FBT). Our commitment and work with the MA FBT partners are critical to ensure that our communities have organizing, strategies, and movement building support and power to fight against harmful actions, build our communities, and protect democracy. Our collective work includes but is not limited to strengthening bridges, scaling up efforts, expanding capacity, and building people and community power.

The Movement Organizer will collaborate closely with MEJA’s Executive Director and team, the MA Fight Back Table, and partner groups (including community, mobilizing, faith, and labor organizations) towards a diverse, intersectional, and community-centered justice movement across the Commonwealth. This is a temporary full-time position with a 1-year commitment. Given that this is a position that will collaborate closely with our Massachusetts-based groups and communities, this is a hybrid-role based in Massachusetts. The organizer will work both remotely and in-person.
