MAPSA employment opportunitiess

This isn't an ordinary workplace.

At MAPSA, our small team relentlessly drives innovative public education reform through strategic advocacy, communications, and outreach. Every staff member plays a critical role in our day-to-day work, and we count on each other for the creativity, innovation, and hard work that powers our exciting ideas. This might be your place if you love a challenge, go the extra mile, and prioritize building strong team relationships.

Tech Requirements: We require a strong home internet connection as well as familiarity with digital platforms such as Slack, Google Suite, Zoom, Mighty Network, and Loom.

Work schedule: MAPSA’s office operates from 8-5 PM EST. However, we offer our team a flexible work schedule when needed.   

Work Environment: We are a "remote-first" company, meaning all of our internal tasks and processes can operate virtually, most often from our home offices. Team members must attend a monthly in-person meeting at our Lansing office location. Travel, other than to the office, is reimbursed.

Healthcare: We offer full-paid healthcare for individuals (dental, vision, and health insurance plans) plus an FSA option to contribute to medical expenses.

Benefits: MAPSA believes in self-care and work-life balance. We offer a generous PTO policy, a competitive salary, and a 401(k) with a 3% company match.

 

We currently do not have any positions open at this time.

About MAPSA

 

MAPSA invests in building greater cultural competence and responsiveness across our team by supporting ongoing reflection, learning, skill-building, and positive actions. We know that culturally competent teams, especially when inclusive of individuals who share the racial, socioeconomic, and academic backgrounds (e.g., first-generation college-goers) of member schools’ student populations, are best equipped to take action to ensure fairness inside and outside of MAPSA. To that end, we believe in building a richly diverse and inclusive organization, including a mission-critical imperative for all staff to both model and contribute to the vision we hope to achieve.
