Looking for a job with meaning?

The purpose of the Ayni School Coordinator is to administer and manage the Ayni School platform in order to increase the accessibility and enrollment of the school’s courses and cohorts, through outreach campaigns and improvement of the school’s web design and technological features. After receiving training on the platform, the Ayni School Coordinator will work collaboratively with the Ayni Institute staff to ensure that objectives and metrics are reached. The coordinator will also receive leadership development and mentorship from the Ayni Team on an ongoing basis. This job is largely focused on coordination, outreach, and development, and less on training and facilitating, though there might be some limited opportunities for that as part of this role in the future. We also know and understand that job positions are aspirational, so we are committed to supporting and coaching you to be able to accomplish the key responsibilities.

This is a full time position, the general schedule will be approximately 35 hours per work week, and this may vary based on emerging needs, projects, hosting of events, and retreats.

For this position, it is required that the applicant is able to travel or commute to Boston and attend retreats and important events/team meetings.
