At MAPSA, our small team works relentlessly to drive innovative public education reform through strategic advocacy, digital communications, and key outreach with charter schools across the state. Every member on staff plays a critical role in our day-to-day. While you're here, you'll gain key experience in your area of specialty and also have a front-row seat in the fast-paced environment of nonprofit culture. On our team, we set the bar high, inviting you on board with our main initiatives and inviting your feedback as a fresh set of eyes on our regular work.
If you value hard work, don't mind wearing many hats, and are passionate about driving meaningful change, this might be the perfect fit.
Tech Requirements: This role requires a strong home internet connection as well as familiarity with digital platforms such as Slack, Excel, Zoom, Mighty Network, and Google Drive.
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 insurance for individuals, with optional FSA/HSA options as well as vision and dental coverage.
Benefits: MAPSA believes in self-care and work-life balance. To that end, we offer a generous PTO policy, a competitive salary, and a 401(k) with a 3% company match.
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.
You're self-aware and respectful - of our team, our members and the people you're engaging with. Each of us works together to represent MAPSA in a way that reflects our values.
You're innately curious, and constantly evolving. You aren't afraid to try new things, strive for improvement, or ask, "what can be done to increase the impact of my work?"
You're willing to problem-solve to the best of your ability before asking for help or answers. You understand that our team's time is precious, and everyone is accountable for working through solutions.
These guys might just be your future team members - find out what makes us tick!
