Location: Full Time - Rochester, NY/Remote
Measures for Justice is a non-partisan, fast-paced, entrepreneurial non-profit on a mission to develop tools and services that help communities reshape the criminal justice system. . Since 2011, we have pioneered a methodology to compare how different justice systems perform on the county level and led the charge to improve county-level criminal justice data. While we do not advocate for any specific reforms, we do work to make change possible by increasing system transparency, accessibility, and accountability. We’ve got world-class criminal justice data and technology chops. And a culture that demands excellence, rigor and people who like to make good ideas come to life.
Our Premise
Local communities and the institutions that serve them are in the best position to reshape how their criminal justice system works.
What Problem Is MFJ Trying to Solve?
The data communities need to make informed decisions about system performance and change are in short supply. The same goes for accountability and transparency. As a result, communities and the institutions that serve them are not equipped to work together on lasting change.
How Does MFJ Solve This Problem?
We’ve developed a new model for the public and their prosecutor/police/courts to work together to track how criminal justice is being carried out and to advance common goals. This work happens via a new public dashboard called Commons that creates a space for making criminal justice data transparent and shared policy goals public. Commons provides important local data that communities need to hold officials responsible. The data we have now gives no power. Commons changes that.
The Job
As a Senior Engagement Manager your primary role will be to build and manage relationships with the community groups and criminal justice practitioners that MFJ serves. You will also help oversee the implementation of MFJ’s data engagement platform, Commons, and drive use of it.
In addition, you will support the Engagement team in building MFJ’s reputation and brand awareness among criminal justice stakeholders, such as criminal justice practitioners, professional associations, relevant advocacy groups, and creating a network of stakeholders interested in engaging with MFJ’s suite of products and services.
What You Will Do
Reputation & Relationship Building
Commons
Act as a guide by providing tools and support for stakeholders as they prepare to launch Commons in their communities.
Research and develop county landscape analysis that reviews the county criminal justice environment to identify possible key topics of concerns, new initiatives and policies, and top influencers.
Organize meetings both online and in-person for Commons projects.
Serve as the main point of contact for assigned Commons sites. Work with community stakeholders as well as internal teams, such as Project Management and Marketing/Communications, on implementation.
Maintain relationships with stakeholders to ensure satisfaction with Commons as well as learn about how the office is using Commons to identify stories of change.
Identify and engage Community-based Organizations to ensure awareness and continued use of the Commons platform post-launch.
Develop written materials as part of ongoing outreach to Commons stakeholders.
About You
Minimum of five years of experience coordinating, managing, or leading community organizing initiatives.
Displays strong cultural competence and cultural humility
Experience working with issues of racial equity.
Experience communicating with diverse audiences, including advocates, practitioners, and policymakers.
Willingness to travel.
Experience actively collaborating with local government partners on related issues preferred.
Broad understanding of key issues in criminal justice research and reform, as well as familiarity with roles/responsibilities of various criminal legal system actors preferred.
Next Steps
To apply, please visit our website - https://www.measuresforjustice.org/about/jobs
