  • Full-time; Exempt About Groundwork Launched in 2018, the Groundwork Collaborative is driven by the idea that We Are The Economy : when all of us are doing well, that is when our economy thrives.

  • Groundwork’s unique structure – part strategic communications, part think tank, and part issue advocacy organization – allows us to drive narrative and policy change with credibility, expertise, and impact.

  • Handle event-related tracking and internal processes, such as budget tracking, vendor payments, and maintaining records of event performance and outcomes.
  • Research and recommend venues and vendors for events in the D.C. area; knowledge of local event spaces is a plus.
  • Support Groundwork’s partnership work by tracking and mapping relationships that advance the organization’s programmatic, policy, and communications goals.
  • Maintain detailed notes and records of partner meetings and opportunities, ensuring visibility across teams and alignment with internal priorities.
  • Support the development and upkeep of partnership infrastructure, including systems for tracking engagement, maintaining institutional knowledge, and coordinating outreach efforts across teams.
  • Assist with external engagement, helping prepare materials and briefings for Groundwork’s leadership team on partnership opportunities, challenges, and developments across core audiences.
  • Provide logistical and administrative support for the Partnership team including the scheduling of meetings and convenings, materials preparation, and follow-up tracking.

  • You’re detail-oriented and skilled at tracking information, taking clear notes, and bringing insights and updates back to the team.
  • You’re a reliable project coordinator who supports the planning, organization, and follow-through of projects, helping keep timelines, materials, and communications on track.
  • You have experience supporting virtual, hybrid, or in-person events and are comfortable managing logistics and communication needs for programming.
