Calling all Jconnectors! It’s time to assemble our steering committee for July 2025 – June 2026. The steering committee helps ensure our programming meets the needs of our community, that those programs happen successfully, and that everyone feels included at Jconnect events. Ultimately the steering committee should be representative of our whole community.
The ideal candidate is:
- genuinely excited about connecting people to Jconnect and Jewish community in Seattle.
- motivated by creating innovative Jewish programming for people in their 20s and 30s.
- can commit to attending Jconnect’s major events throughout the year.
The core responsibilities include:
- serving as a welcoming presence at Jconnect events, bringing new people into the community in a warm and inviting way.
- helping inform Jconnect programming decisions based on feedback from the community.
- staffing event check-in tables, assisting with event set-up/clean-up, and aiding with event facilitation as needed.
- marketing and recruitment for Jconnect events in their own networks.
- chairing the planning and execution of at least one event per year in collaboration with the Jconnect professional staff.
Steering committee members will attend one in-person or Zoom meeting each month and then work largely asynchronously throughout the year.
A limited number of spots are available; applicants will be reached out to for a 1-on-1 with our Jconnect Director. Those who have been accepted to the Steering Committee will be notified on June 9th, 2025. Nominees should plan to attend the last re:connect Shabbat of the year on June 13th, 2025, to be introduced to the community as their steering committee for next year.
