Hello --

Civic Nation is looking to fill the position of Executive Assistant to the Executive Director to join the team. Please see below for more information. 

Thanks,

Title: Executive Assistant to the Executive Director

Department: Covid-19 Trust Campaign

Status: Exempt

Reports to: Executive Director

Salary: $60,000 - $70,000


Civic Nation seeks an Executive Assistant to the Executive Director for a new public education and grassroots mobilization effort, the COVID-19 Vaccine Trust Campaign, which seeks to build trust in the COVID-19 vaccines and promote other behavioral changes to combat the pandemic. The effort will serve as a centralized hub to coordinate and disseminate messages and effective strategies through a broad coalition of trusted partners. 

Reporting to the Executive Director, the Executive Assistant will be primarily responsible for supporting the Executive Director in all things scheduling, logistics, administration, and other special projects as required. 

The ideal candidate for this position should be proactive, detail-oriented, an excellent project manager, a strong communicator, and should be passionate about community building, organizing and equity in our healthcare system. This is a junior level position with lots of room to take on fun and engaging projects. 


This is a remote, "short" term campaign that will end around July 2022. 


ABOUT THE COVID-19 VACCINE TRUST CAMPAIGN 

Extensive research shows that half of Americans say they either will not or are unsure if they will get a COVID-19 vaccine, with particularly high rates of uncertainty among the very communities hardest hit by the pandemic. Experts across the public health sector are calling for an unprecedented public outreach campaign to overcome this hesitancy. 

Recognizing this urgent need, we are launching the COVID-19 Vaccine Trust Campaign, a communications, outreach, and grassroots mobilization effort to build public trust in the COVID-19 vaccines through trusted messengers who can engage in dialogue and share clear, consistent information with the target audience. 

The program will serve as a centralized hub to coordinate and disseminate messages and effective strategies through a broad coalition of trusted partners. We'll work with partner organizations to reach local leaders who will serve as medical experts, and work to expand our network of validators through grassroots programs that encourage community-based institutions to share information with their communities.
