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 looking for a Junior Copywriter, to create engaging written material for all our channels. This position gets to work with all of Mem Global’s programs and departments to discover interesting stories and create informative and compelling pieces of writing for our different audiences, which includes our community builders, program participants, donors, partners, and staff.
