JOB ALERT | Part-Time Operations and Remote Work Assistant

The Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault (MCASA) is looking for an Operations & Remote Work Assistant to help support the agency and staff as we all work together to end sexual violence.

If you want to help survivors and are organized, like juggling different tasks, computer savvy, and live in or near downtown Silver Spring, MD, this could be a good job for you. This position does not involve working directly with clients. New grads, moms and other parents, artists, graduate students, and anyone else wanting a flexible position with a mission-driven organization that helps people are encouraged to apply.

The Maryland Coalition Against Sexual Assault (MCASA), a non-profit organization, is the federally recognized state coalition and includes the State’s rape crisis centers and others concerned with ending sexual violence. Our mission is to help prevent sexual assault, advocate for accessible, compassionate care for survivors of sexual violence, and work to hold offenders accountable. MCASA includes the Sexual Assault Legal Institute, a statewide legal services project helping survivors throughout Maryland.

The Operations & Remote Work Assistant will help with the operation of the agency in our post-pandemic form. Currently, MCASA staff work all over the state attending meetings, outreach, court proceedings, and other in person activities. They have the option of working remotely or in our Silver Spring offices. The Operations & Remote Work Assistant will help make this possible by assisting with operations, on-boarding staff (including basic HR forms), supplies, coordinating tech support, and general wrangling of staff needs. The Operations & Remote Work Assistant will report to the Finance & Operations Manager.

At MCASA, we believe we cannot successfully serve others if we do not take care of ourselves. MCASA staff are encouraged to practice self-care and are supported in finding a positive work-life balance. This position, along with the rest of the agency, will entail significant virtual work and allow for flexible scheduling. MCASA does not anticipate resuming full-time in office work, however, there will be occasional meetings in person and this position is charged with helping support remote work and the office in Silver Spring.

The Operations & Remote Work Assistant is expected to be available to travel to the MCASA office in Silver Spring within 30-45 minutes. While many job duties may be performed virtually, some are in person. This may include on-site meetings, assisting other staff or vendors, or other in person events. Employees may choose to work in the MCASA offices subject to COVID risk reduction protocols.

Classification: Non-Exempt

Salary: $21.50/hour, 20-35 hours per week as negotiated
