Membership Manager

Description

The Girl Scout mission is to build girls of courage, confidence, and character, who make the world a better place. Behind every Girl Scout and volunteer is a team of dedicated staff who help girls discover their potential through leadership, outdoor adventure, STEM, entrepreneurship and community service.

Girl Scouts of Northern New Jersey (GSNNJ) serves girls in grades K–12 across Bergen, Morris, Passaic, Sussex and Northern Warren counties. Together, we support nearly 19,000 girls and more than 10,000 adult members through a network of volunteers, community partners and staff committed to expanding access to the Girl Scout Leadership Experience.

We are seeking a Membership Manager to join our Membership team.

The Membership Manager will bring strong relationship-building skills and experience working within communities, schools, volunteer-led organizations, or youth-serving nonprofits. This role will be responsible for membership recruitment and retention, troop formation, expanding visibility of opportunities outside of traditional troops and promoting flexible ways for girls and families to engage in the Girl Scout experience across assigned Morris County Service Units and municipalities.

Morris County represents a strong foundation for Girl Scout membership and volunteer engagement. This role will focus on maintaining and strengthening that base while identifying opportunities for growth.

• The successful candidate will cultivate relationships with schools, libraries, faith and community organizations, and other local partners to expand visibility and create opportunities for girls and volunteers to engage with Girl Scouting. 
• You will set yearly recruitment goals for the county with your manager, and track progress using council systems and reporting tools. 
• The Membership Manager will bring strong relationship-building skills and experience working within communities, schools, volunteer-led organizations, or youth-serving nonprofits.

Requirements

• While prior Girl Scout knowledge is beneficial, it is not required.
• Candidates with experience in community outreach, volunteer management, education, youth development, nonprofit organizations, customer engagement, or partnership development are encouraged to apply.
• The ideal candidate will demonstrate strong communication skills, initiative, adaptability, and a commitment to delivering results though an exceptional selling experience.
• Although Morris County will be the primary area of responsibility, this position will also support membership initiatives across the broader GSNNJ jurisdiction (Bergen, Passaic, Sussex and Northern Warren) as needed and work collaboratively with colleagues in Community Engagement, Volunteer Engagement, Program, Troop Support, and other departments to achieve council-wide goals.
• This position requires a proactive, community-centered approach and the ability to collaborate effectively with volunteers, families, and cross-functional staff to achieve membership goals.
