About The Position
At BBYO, our mission drives us. It inspires us to reimagine work, so it feels fun, flexible, and fulfilling. As the leading pluralistic Jewish teen movement, we aspire to involve more Jewish teens in meaningful Jewish experiences. For more than 100 years, our purpose has been to unleash the power of youth. Through the Aleph Zadik Aleph (AZA, our high school fraternity) and the B’nai B’rith Girls (BBG, our high school sorority), BBYO delivers exceptional leadership and identity‑building experiences that have shaped the confidence and character of hundreds of thousands of alumni who now lead in business, politics, academia, the arts, and Jewish communal life. Together, AZA and BBG form a global Jewish teen movement spanning more than 60 countries. With year‑round activities in hundreds of communities, a wide range of summer leadership programs, and inspiring global travel experiences, BBYO empowers teens to explore leadership, service, civic engagement, Israel education, and Jewish values. We are seeking a passionate Chapter Specialist for Bucks County, Pennsylvania, to join our Philadelphia‑area team and make a meaningful impact. As the Chapter Specialist, you will play a pivotal role in working closely with teens, alumni, and community partners to build AZA, BBG, and BBYO chapters within the Movement’s Liberty Region (Eastern Pennsylvania, Delaware, Upstate New York, and Mercer County, New Jersey). You will partner with teens and chapter advisors to elevate programming, strengthen engagement, and create year‑round impact for hundreds of local Jewish teens. Alongside your teammates, you’ll thrive in a dynamic environment and help shape a positive experience for teens, our community, and the wider world.
