Partnerships & Outreach Coordinator
Reports to: Senior Manager, Educational Partnerships
The mission of Oakland Promise (OP) is to engage the Oakland community to advance equity and economic mobility through cradle-to-career educational opportunities. Founded in 2016, Oakland Promise is a citywide movement with over 50 implementation partners working towards our shared vision. Oakland Promise supports children and families from birth through college and career to ensure that postsecondary success is a reality for all Oaklanders. Oakland Promise includes four programs: Brilliant Baby, Kindergarten to College (K2C), Future Centers, and College Scholarships and Completion, that provide a cradle to career continuum of college-focused supports for students. Our goal is to dramatically increase the number of college graduates from Oakland and ensure that all students hold a college-bound identity. We seek a hard-working, highly detail oriented individual to join our community in undertaking this important work.
Oakland Promise seeks a detail-oriented and collaborative coordinator with excellent organizational, communication, and systems management skills and a passion for expanding opportunities for Oakland children and families. The Partnerships & Outreach Coordinator will be a part of an innovative and dynamic team tasked with streamlining stakeholders (partners, mentors, and scholars) outreach efforts to create more visibility for OP programs, resources, and partnerships at scale. The team works to create cohesive and collaborative systems to generate internal and external efficiencies.
