INTRODUCTION
Northeast Kingdom Organizing (NEKO) is joyfully seeking an Operations Director Organizer with the courage and skills to bring deep listening, relationships, and NEKO’s values to the management of our day-to-day communication, financial, and administrative tasks.
NEKO is in the process of exploring a shared leadership model. We’re committed to staying in this work for the long haul and transforming extractive, white-supremacist, and capitalist work ethics into cooperative, supported, and sane workloads. Because of that, we’re hoping to dissolve the Lead Organizer/Executive Director role and are looking to hire a candidate who may be interested in working toward co-leadership of our organization.
ABOUT NEKO
NEKO is a multi-issue, member-led, coalition of individuals, families, faith and community-based organizations that come together to organize and advocate for justice for the people and the places of Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom. We do this by embracing the concepts and practices of community organizing and centering the voices of NEK residents often ignored in decisions about their communities.
We practice a three-stage theory of change:
1
We use popular education tools like storytelling to center the voices of NEK residents impacted by injustice.
2
We build relationships for political power and a Just Transition of the Northeast Kingdom.
3
We organize, analyze power, and take action together to fight for equity for all people.
