Who We Are
NELP is a national nonprofit advocacy organization with three offices in New York, Washington D.C., and Berkeley, with the core goals of building worker power, dismantling structural racism, and addressing economic inequality. We promote federal, state, and local policies to create good jobs, strengthen workers’ upward mobility, enforce worker rights, and improve benefits and services for unemployed workers. In collaboration with national and grassroots partners, NELP advances its work through research, advocacy, litigation support, and technical assistance designed to raise wages, end wage theft and workplace violations, strengthen unemployment insurance, ensure employer accountability for workers in contract employment, encourage fair chance employment practices, and promote a comprehensive policy framework to build a good jobs economy.

What You Will Do
The NELP Connect Community Manager, who may be based in any of NELP’s three office locations, will initially be situated in the Operations Team while training in NELP’s various systems and the history of the NELP Connect Communities. After the orientation period, this position will report to the Deputy Chief of Programs. You will be responsible for managing the full life cycle of NELP communities from launching new communities on the NELP Connect platform and training moderators to introducing new technical features, tracking performance metrics and driving continual improvement.
