Community Manager

100Kin10 unites 280 of the nation’s top academic institutions, nonprofits, foundations, companies, and government agencies to address the nation’s STEM teacher shortage. Together, we are tackling systemic challenges and getting 100,000 excellent STEM teachers into classrooms nationwide.

In our first five years, we secured commitments for 100,000 excellent STEM teachers by 2021 and built a highly engaged, collaborative network of partner organizations immersed in collective problem-solving and shared learning and willing to be vulnerable and trusting with old and new allies alike.

The Community Team at 100Kin10 is responsible for engaging and organizing our partner organizations, creating the structures and experiences that enable them to come together to share and learn what works (what what doesn’t), come up with new solutions where none exist, and implement their work in a way that the field can learn from.

People who thrive at 100Kin10 are team-oriented, open-minded, creative, and flexible, and possess a strong desire to learn and grow in a feedback-rich environment. Our culture embraces colleagues with genuine warmth, a curiosity to learn, a drive toward excellence, the ability to laugh at themselves, an eagerness for feedback to spur growth and impact, and an interest in co-workers as colleagues and as human beings.

About the Community Team

The ultimate goal of the Community Team at 100Kin10 is to move partners towards long-term collaborative projects that address the underlying systemic challenges to our nation’s STEM teacher shortage. We do that by collecting data about our partners to understand their needs, motivations, behaviors, and goals. We use this data to segment our partners into sub-groups that are ripe for collaborative project work. Once segmented, we develop bespoke email and communications campaigns that are designed to pique their interest in short-term opportunities for light engagement (i.e. one-off virtual and in-person learning events) as well as inspire deeper commitments to long-term collaborative projects with their fellow partners (i.e. “Project Teams”). We consider ourselves to be community organizers, who use a wide variety of skills to do our work well: service design, experience design, data management and analysis, marketing and communications, and program design and management.
