About Us:

The Movement Innovation Collaborative (MIC) is a pioneering entity that aims to deepen and expand the capacity, impact, and sustainability of California's grassroots movements for racial justice and social transformation. Our mission is to support changemakers and organizations to catalyze innovations in movement strategy and power building, intergenerational leadership development, and our collective long-term sustainability and resiliency.

Our Approach:

We will achieve our mission by focusing on three core strategies to deepen the power, coordination, and impact of the sector. In all three areas, we will create program and infrastructure supports that are additive and synergistic with existing movement efforts rather than duplicative.

  • Intergenerational Leadership Development
  • Healing Justice and Sustainable Work Culture
The Role:

We are seeking a highly skilled and experienced professional to lead our Movement Strategy and Innovation (MS&I) Program. The MS&I Program Strategy Director will be responsible for developing and implementing a strategy for the MS&I program that focuses on the big questions facing the power building ecosystem and the innovation and strategy required to build the power we need.

  • Cultivate networks and deepen relationships with practitioners, subject-matter experts, researchers, and capacity builders.
Responsibilities:

The MS&I Program Strategy Director will be responsible for holding MIC's overall approach to fostering innovation, learning, and breakthrough experimentation, innovation on approaches to power building, and for supporting all the programs in advancing experimentation, innovation, and learning.

  • Support the development of MIC's overall approach to strategy and innovation.
  • Work in close collaboration with other MIC leadership to ensure alignment, cross-fertilization, and shared programming across all program strategies, particularly in strategy and innovation.
  • Oversee knowledge capture and dissemination related to the MS&I program and inform MIC's approach to learning and more broadly across all program strategy.
Requirements:

We are looking for a highly skilled and experienced professional with a strong alignment with the MIC's mission, values, and culture. The ideal candidate will possess many of the following professional and personal abilities, attributes, and experiences:

  • A strong alignment with the MIC's mission, values, and culture.
  • Will have demonstrated success in leveraging lived experience to drive meaningful results and change.
  • A track record of building relationships with progressive organizational leaders.
  • Demonstrated track record of organizational leadership of going from theory to strategy development to testing and implementation to achieve goals and measurable outcomes.
  • Expertise in community organizing and program development, with at least five-seven years of experience in coalition and base-building.
  • Experience in the innovation and experimentation process for program development and learning.
  • Combination of related training and work experience for minimum of seven to ten years.
  • Leadership style that is action-oriented, entrepreneurial, adaptable, community-centered, and brings an innovative approach to addressing challenges.
  • Values cross-functional collaboration and building strong and trusted relationships across diverse individuals and groups of stakeholders.
  • High-level of cultural awareness and experience working with different demographic and cultural groups.
  • A flexible and resilient approach, with the ability to handle strong opinions/feedback well, and adapt to the dynamic nature of a startup environment.
  • Unafraid to tackle issues of race & equity both internally with MIC colleagues and networks externally with the field.
  • Strategic leadership abilities, and the ability to link the development of people with achievement of organizational outcomes.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Possess facilitation, training, and consultation skills in order to convene groups to interpret and examine data, make decisions, and move to action.
  • Exceptional project management, prioritization, and planning skills, with demonstrated success producing high-quality deliverables on time and with attention to detail and accuracy.
  • Excellent computer skills (Google Apps, Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint, etc.); willingness to learn additional applications and accessible technology as necessary.
Benefits:

  • Medical insurance. Employees pay only 10% of the premium to add dependent(s).
  • Dental and vision insurance, including dependent coverage.
  • Life and AD&D Insurance of $50K.
  • Short-term and long-term disability plans, which cover up to 60% of weekly salary.
  • Employee Assistance Program (EAP).
  • RocketLawyer services.
