Invest STL is seeking a new team member to serve as Collaboration Support Partner to support cross-team and community partner collaborations.
Applications will be accepted through October 20, 2024.
BackgroundInvest STL facilitates investment in the power of people and their neighborhoods to create communities of justice and opportunity in places that continue to endure the legacy of systemic anti-Black racism. We seek to do this by generating trust-based, community-driven, neighborhood-based investments; investing in the regional community and economic development system; influencing policies and decision-making that advance equitable development; and reframing prevailing narratives in our region about predominantly Black neighborhoods and the people, power, challenges and dreams that they hold.
The Collaboration Support Partner will provide coordination, consistency, and continuity across multiple efforts. Internally, this role will collaborate closely with our Neighborhood Solidarity Partners and System Design + Investment Team to shape and support on-the-ground efforts with neighborhood investees, residents and broader community partners.
While not required, candidates with professional or lived experience in community organizing, coalition-building, movement-building or power-building are highly encouraged to apply. This position is similar to an assistant project manager role and may more typically be conducive to someone in the early phases of exploring community and economic development movement work.
