Remote, preferred location where J Street has offices (DC, NYC, Boston, CA)
Position
Are you interested in growing J Street's campus program? Do you want to help engage and inspire students to advocate for a peaceful resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, an end to the occupation and principled, effective US diplomacy in the Middle East?
J Street is looking for the newest member of our J Street U team who will focus on growing J Street U, the student arm of the pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy movement.
The candidate hired for this position will have interest and experience in youth empowerment and a desire to strengthen the Jewish American progressive voice on Israel on campus, in the Jewish community, and within the arenas of American politics and policy.

As regional coordinator, you will find and develop talented student leaders and help them build and expand J Street U chapters and presences on their campuses.

J Street U engages students in in-district meetings with members of Congress, PAC events for JStreetPAC endorsees, partnering with local clergy and much more.
The ideal candidate will have qualities that lend themselves to successful student engagement and organizing: strong instincts for campus politics and chapter growth, a knowledge of student leadership and creativity in developing tactics to advance Israeli-Palestinian peace.

More about J Street
J Street organizes pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy Americans to promote US policies that align with Jewish and democratic values, that help secure the State of Israel as a just, democratic homeland for the Jewish people, and that advance freedom, safety and self-determination for the Palestinian people.
(1) Advocating and demonstrating support for pro-Israel, pro-peace, pro-democracy policies in Congress, the media and the Jewish community; (2) Endorsing and raising money for federal candidates who share J Street's agenda; and (3) Educating the public and raising awareness of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the two-state solution.
J Street U, part of the Education Fund, is the student-organizing arm of J Street.
J Street U is committed to empowering students across the country to put their values into action around Israel and the future state of Palestine through advocacy on campus and with the Jewish community.
Over 50 campuses across the country host J Street U chapters and presences dedicated to changing the conversation around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, engaging in challenging educational work, and working to build a student movement capable of having a local and national impact in both communal and political spheres.
Compensation, Benefits, and Employee StatusThis is a full-time exempt position, with occasional work outside traditional work hours on an as-needed basis. The salary range for this position runs from $50,500-$60,000.
Per J Street's Collective Bargaining Agreement, pay and title are commensurate with experience and according to pay bands outlined in our CBA.
Our comprehensive benefits package includes unlimited personal time off, sick leave, generous parental and family leave, paid time off on many federal and Jewish holidays, health and dental insurance, company-paid life insurance, a 401k program including an employer match, commuter benefits, and a flexible spending account.
