Who We Are:

Mem Global is where Jewish young adults in their 20s and early 30s come to connect, explore, and create meaningful Jewish experiences with their peers (yes, there’s probably food involved). As the umbrella brand for our global suite of programs, Mem Global supports young adults as they bring Judaism to life through thousands of peer-driven gatherings across 25+ countries each year. We’re all about creating spaces where Jewish young adults can learn, lead, and build the kind of community that feels like family. 

Mem Global is searching for a Central Community Manager in the Central part of North America to manage and enable our community builders to be leaders in creating meaningful, welcoming experiences that serve the young adult Jewish community in their city. The Central Community Manager is a member of the Resident Support team and is responsible for supporting residents in Houses and Pods.   

This individual works to achieve program goals by recruiting new community builders, tracking KPI metrics for their Moishe Houses and Pods, connecting residents to resources and additional Mem Global opportunities, and developing a strong knowledge base about young adult life in their regional communities. This position reports to the Associate Director, House & Pod Programs.
