JOB DETAILS:
The James Weldon Johnson Institute for the Study of Race and Difference (JWJI) is a vibrant research center dedicated to promoting scholarship regarding issues of race and all of its intersections. Housed in the College of Arts and Sciences at Emory University, JWJI’s goal is to promote Emory as a hub of cutting-edge, multi- and interdisciplinary research on race, ethnicity and intersectionality in the United States. JWJI seeks to leverage its rich resources—its proximity to a renowned faculty of Emory-based scholars who produce acclaimed research on race and difference; a library with vast archives of the African American experience; and its geographic location in Atlanta, a key site of civil rights struggle, past and present—to promote the dissemination of new scholarship about the experiences of racial and ethnic minorities and to support the efforts of scholars nationally to continue to pursue research topics that deeply interrogate questions related to race and difference and that contribute to our prescriptive understanding of how to promote reconciliation and equity.
JWJI offers a wide variety of programs. Our public events include a weekly colloquium and a quarterly evening speakers’ series, and our premiere program is the Visiting Scholars Program. Funded by a generous grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Visiting Scholars program convenes a national group of scholars at Emory for a year-long fellowship. During their residency, fellows finish a major project like a dissertation (for our graduate student fellows) or a book project (for our post-doctoral fellows, who come from all academic ranks).
JWJI seeks to hire an assistant director to help the director grow and expand the mission of the institute. The assistant director will play a critical role in the day-to-day management of the institute. The responsibilities of the job are wide-ranging and require tremendous flexibility and an extensive skill set. Desired skills include but are not limited to:
- Office management. The assistant director is the lead staff for a unit that includes 1.5 other full time employees (with the potential for future growth). In addition to the FTE’s, the assistant director will interface with student employees engaged in administrative and research tasks for the institute. S/he will also be the administrative face for a rotating cast of visiting faculty members.
- Project management for more than two dozen public programs annually. The assistant director will be responsible for overseeing logistics arrangements and handling legal matters like colloquium speaker contracts and release forms. S/he will also assist the director in overseeing the logistical arrangements for the annual fellowship selection process, which last year attracted over 200 applications.
- Marketing. The assistant director will be the point person for advertising for all of our public events and communications with key constituents through our newsletter and annual reports. The assistant director also oversees advertising for the Visiting Scholars Program (This may involve travel with the director to various conferences for recruitment purposes). The assistant director is also responsible for maintain the institute’s website.
- Grant management. The assistant director assists the director in completing grant applications and when successful, in fulfilling the reporting requirements of our major foundation donors.
- Relationship management. JWJI has many partners at Emory, in the wider Atlanta community, and beyond Atlanta who help it fulfill its mission. A strong assistant director will help to create systems intended to cultivate and maintain these relationships.
- Development. While the assistant director plays a supportive role to the director, s/he will be involved in helping to fundraise for JWJI, whether in helping to plan fundraisers or in contributing to grant proposals and creating materials for interested donors.
