BACKGROUND
The Outwords Archive (OUTWORDS) records, preserves, and shares the stories of LGBTQ+ elders across the United States, to build community and catalyze social change.
Since 2016, OUTWORDS has recorded over 325 interviews in 42 states with the queer generation who mostly came of age in the 1950s and 1960s, and are now in their 70s, 80s, and 90s. It is critically important for us to document the diverse firsthand accounts of these elders while they are still alive to tell them.
DESCRIPTION
OUTWORDS seeks a skilled freelance Staff Assistant excited by, and dedicated to, the organization’s mission, vision, and core values. We're looking for a self-motivated, independent worker with outstanding organizational and communication skills. The Staff Assistant works directly with the Executive Director, Operations Director, and Communications Director.
Staff Assistant duties include:
Job Type: Part-time, 20 hours/week
Pay: $17.28/hour
QUALIFICATIONS
While much of the work will be completed virtually, the Staff Assistant must live in the Los Angeles area and be available for weekly in-person work at OUTWORDS’ office in Glendale, Los Angeles, CA.
Minimum requirements:
Ideal Candidate will have working familiarity with some or all of the following programs/platforms:
HOW TO APPLY
In an attempt to establish a shared culture contribution, please submit a brief cover letter and resume. Candidates who do not submit a cover letter will not be considered. In your cover letter, please describe your familiarity with the LGBTQIA2S+ community, your commitment to Anti-Racism work, and why you are interested in this position. We hope to begin interviewing in late June with a start date in July.
EQUITY, DIVERSITY, AND INCLUSION
As a signatory to the Anti-Racist Small Business pledge [https://theoutwordsarchive.org/mission-vision-and-values/#antiracism-pledge] OUTWORDS applies an equity lens to all of its hiring decisions, seeking to provide opportunities to individuals and communities that have traditionally been underrepresented and/or excluded from the media production industry. We are committed to creating, exploring, and maintaining an environment where new, unpopular and/or controversial ideas are safely expressed, and encourage the exchange of such views in an environment of tolerance, curiosity, and mutual respect.
Archiving as a form of social justice also includes actively seeking out interviewees who are BIPOC, living with disabilities, transgender/gender non-conforming, or other marginalized identities, and to actively reverse and rectify historical erasure by recording, preserving, and sharing these stories with respect and care.
All qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, creed, color, national origin, sex, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, age, disability, military status, or the use of a trained dog guide or service animal by a person with a disability. OUTWORDS will furthermore consider applicants who may need a reasonable accommodation to perform the essential functions/duties. Please send a message via Indeed for additional information or to request reasonable accommodations for the application or interview process.
