Benefits

  • Flexible Work Schedules
    At Â鶹¹ÙÍø, a 35-hour week constitutes fulltime employment. Core business hours are between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., but you may vary your work hours to start as early as 8 a.m. or as late as 10 a.m. with supervisor approval.

  • Remote Work

    Recognizing the many benefits of remote work, Â鶹¹ÙÍø has moved to a nearly 100% work-from-home operation. However, please be aware that Â鶹¹ÙÍø does require occasional on-site work, whether for staff retreats or fun office get-togethers. For this reason, remote candidates should be able to easily travel to Washington, D.C., sometimes with only a day or two notice.

  • Vacation Time

    Hard work earns well-deserved breaks. New employees receive 15 days of vacation and four paid personal days per year. Â鶹¹ÙÍø also observes 11 paid holidays and gives employees generous paid sick leave.

  • Location, Location, Location

    Located in the historic Old Town neighborhood of Alexandria, the Â鶹¹ÙÍø office enjoys close proximity to numerous dining, cultural and retail opportunities. After on-site meetings, many employees walk around the Alexandria African American Heritage Park, relax on a park bench in Carlyle Square, or grab a bite at a nearby restaurant.

    Our office is near the King St-Old Town Metro Station and Alexandria Union Amtrak Station.

Community

Our employees bring expertise and experience in different areas — law, advocacy, equity, communications, operations, member services — to ensure Â鶹¹ÙÍø champions public education and offers exceptional service to our state associations. When we work together, we create something greater than the sum of our parts. It’s evident in the work we do and the feeling you get when you meet us.
