Field Manager, Northern Virginia
Posted: 06/18/2020
A recent landmark community study revealed that Northern Virginia is home to more than 120,000 Jews and is growing at a rapid rate. The Northern Virginia Jewish community includes more than two dozen congregations, including two that are more than 100 years old, as well as several Moishe Houses and other newer organizations. As the NOVA Field Manager, you will inspire, shape, and energetically and strategically connect those Jews with one another and with JFGW, enhancing JFGW’s presence and impact in Northern Virginia through partnership with community members, local and national agencies, donors, congregational Rabbi’s and key communal leadership.
Please note that JFGW is presently teleworking and will continue to do so during Covid-19 concerns. We look forward to a time when we can once again meet with our constituents out in the community. At that time, this position will be based from a home office, with an expectation to meet with community agency representatives, community members, and colleagues.
