JOB DESCRIPTION: Temporary Administrative/Operations Manager
Start Date: Late November to early December
Work Location: Remote
Hand in Hand: The Domestic Employers Network is a national member-based organization committed to building a more just and caring economy starting in our homes and communities.
Hand in Hand organizes people who employ domestic workers— nannies, house cleaners, and home care workers— to make their homes fair and equitable workplaces, as well as to stand in solidarity with domestic workers in their fight to win legal rights and protections. Hand and Hand works closely with our sister organization the National Domestic Workers Alliance, and is committed to righting the historic wrongs, rooted in the legacy of slavery, that omitted domestic workers from our country’s labor and civil rights laws.
Hand in Hand also works on campaigns that fight for public investment in care for families, people with disabilities and older adults. This includes expanded access to home care and childcare as well as family-sustaining wages for workers. Our work to win policy and culture change is rooted in our core values of workers’ rights, social justice, interdependence and collective power.
