The 2020 cycle was historic for IMPACT — culminating in the election of Vice President Kamala Harris, a new Senate majority that AAPI voters in Georgia helped deliver, and several Indian American firsts in public offices across the country. As we look to 2022, IMPACT is poised for continued success in electing diverse candidates to public office, and further, serving as a national voice for Indian American and South Asian communities, and as an ally to other communities of color.

While this list of responsibilities is not exhaustive, IMPACT seeks an Executive Assistant to:
  • Provide daily assistance to the Executive Director to support the organization and growing staff
  • Manage all scheduling requests, in-person meetings, phone calls and virtual meetings for the Executive Director, ensuring that the Executive Director is prepared for each conversation

  • Support the Executive Director in upwardly managing the IMPACT Board of Directors, responding to all requests and outreach from the Board in a timely manner
  • Prepare and draft weekly notes to stakeholders on behalf of the Executive Director 
  • Oversee coordination and execution of all IMPACT Board Meetings, supporting team members and the Executive Director to ensure each meeting and conversation is structured and that all Board Members have materials in advance of each meeting 
  • Work with fellow staff members and consultants on a wide-array of projects as assigned by the Executive Director, bringing a team-player spirit to this role
  • Assume additional responsibilities as assigned by the Executive Director 
Ideal Qualifications:
  • Demonstrated skill and passion for building political power in underrepresented communities
  • 2+ years of campaign, political, advocacy, non-profit, government or corporate experience

  • Strong writing and communication skills

  • A desire to grow as a professional through this experience with a collaborative and positive attitude 
Salary & Benefits: The Executive Assistant will be employed as a full-time position at IMPACT. The salary range for this position is $45,000-$60,000. Salary and compensation will be based on the candidate's experiences and qualifications. While the selected candidate can work remotely, IMPACT will be opening an office based in Philadelphia beginning in 2021.
