Alaska Census Working Group Coordinator (Independent Contractor)

The Foraker Group

Alaska Census Working Group Coordinator (Independent Contractor)

Estimated Hours

– 15-20 hours/week

Reports To –

Vice President of Programs

The Foraker Group seeks a passionate and organized Alaska Census Working Group (ACWG) Coordinator to support ACWG co-chairs, convene meetings, and deploy resources. ACWG is a bipartisan, multisector coalition from across Alaska. Foraker’s role is to provide substantive organizational support and participate in overall leadership of the group’s census efforts.

The primary objective of the working group is to ensure that every Alaskan, particularly those in hard-to-count populations (e.g. rural areas, Alaska Natives, people of color, immigrant communities, and low-income individuals) are counted. The work of the ACWG is in connection with but distinct from the State of Alaska-led or US Census Bureau-led efforts.

The ideal Coordinator is adept at project management and a self-starter who can take information from a variety of sources and move the working group forward tactically and strategically. The right person is passionate about the role of the census in informing systems and structures across all sectors of Alaska’s economy. The Coordinator ideally is an Alaskan with a deep understanding of life in urban and rural Alaska and can work across sectors, political ideology, and geography to bring people together for a set of common goals.  The Coordinator is someone who understands how to work in coalition environments and is adept at diplomacy and discreet with confidential information, while also ready to keep the momentum of the group moving forward.  The right person has energy and is ready to engage a wide range of people and interests, and has an aptitude for the economic and statistical details inherent in census work.
