The Outreach Manager will be responsible for helping to design and oversee a new statewide program to educate Mainers about the COVID vaccines, and help vaccine-hesitant Mainers understand the benefits of vaccination. Among other responsibilities for statewide program design and grant reporting, the Outreach Manager will manage a team of 10-12 door-to-door canvass staff based in Androscoggin and Penobscot counties, who will have one-on-one conversations to provide information on COVID vaccines and help Mainers access vaccines in their communities. The position is temporary and will continue through the end of November 2021, with the opportunity for a longer timeframe contingent on grant funding.

•    Strong communication skills
•    Previous management or supervisory experience
•    Ability to multi-task in a challenging fast-paced work environment

This position is a full time temporary position, with potential for advancement.  Salary range is $36,000 - $50,000, commensurate with experience.  Applicants should own (or have access to) their own vehicle (travel is reimbursed). MPA is an equal opportunity employer and we are committed to equity and inclusion. Core to our work is an understanding of the multiple ways in which society is constructed to disadvantage and marginalize people of color, LGBTQ people, immigrants, native peoples, women, low-income people, people with disabilities, and others.  We believe that underrepresented and marginalized communities must be centered in the work we do and we strongly encourage applications from people with these identities or from these communities.
