Associate, Executive Administration

About Repair the World:

Repair the World mobilizes Jews and their communities to take action to pursue a just world. We believe that service in support of social change is vital to a flourishing Jewish community and an inspired Jewish life. By 2030, Repair will inspire and catalyze one million acts of service towards repairing the world.

Repair is building a national Jewish service movement of flourishing Jewish communities that serve in pursuit of a just world. Repair mobilizes young adults to serve in their communities, catalyzes service through deep partnerships within Jewish communal organizations, and inspires people to take action through time-bound thematic national service campaigns. Our mission provides volunteers with an increased connection to meaningful service and learning as a Jewish value, builds capacity for nonprofit partners to meet their missions, and deepens connections across lines of difference.

Position Overview

Repair the World is looking for an organized, detail-oriented, early-career professional to provide administrative and logistical support in all aspects of executive team work, including donor, prospect, partner, and board member engagement and communication. The person in this role holds many moving pieces at once, communicates clearly across teams, and moves work forward proactively. This person will assist with relevant project management tasks and provide calendar management support. 

Preferred candidates will be highly organized, an effective communicator, a self-starter, and will demonstrate critical thinking and relationship-building skills. This role requires the ability to plan, organize, and manage competing priorities productively.  

The person in this role will also identify where AI tools and automated workflows can take repetitive administrative work off people's plates — and help implement them. You'll use AI tools, including Claude, so more of your time goes to the judgment calls and follow-through that actually need a person.

This is a full-time non-exempt position. The Associate, Executive Administration will report directly to the Director, Office of the President, and work closely with the executive team. This is a hybrid position, ideally located in New York City; consideration may be given to people living in another Repair the World community (Atlanta, GA; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Detroit, MI; Los Angeles, CA; Miami, FL; Orange County, CA; or San Francisco Bay Area, CA). Some travel will be required.
