This hybrid position is perfect for someone who is highly organized, enjoys collaborating with passionate volunteers, and takes pride in turning a concept into a smooth, well-run event. If you like variety, creativity, and seeing the joy your work creates, you’ll feel right at home here.

• Community Energy – Be part of a thriving congregation that loves to gather, celebrate, and learn.

What You’ll Do

• Partner with program chairpersons and volunteers to take events from concept to completion.
• Coordinate logistics: registration, room setup, tech needs, vendors, and more.
• Keep programs on track — managing budgets, timelines, and approvals.
• Provide on-site support at select programs to ensure everything runs smoothly.
• Gather feedback and help make the next event even better.

What We’re Looking For

• People Person – You enjoy working with volunteers, vendors, and community members.
• Organized Multitasker – You can juggle timelines, simple budgets, and details without missing a beat.
• Problem-Solver – You stay calm and resourceful when the unexpected happens.
• Tech-Friendly – Social media experience is a big plus (but not required), especially for capturing and sharing program moments.
• Openness to Tradition - Comfortable working in a synagogue setting 
• Flexible Schedule – Available for occasional evening or weekend programs.
