The Director of Organizing will lead the organization by supervising staff, managing strategic development, and overseeing financial operations. They are also responsible for training grassroots leaders, driving community campaigns, and coordinating fundraising efforts.
Requirements
Candidates must have at least three years of professional experience in community organizing, advocacy, or non-profit leadership. A valid driver's license and access to a car are required, along with a passion for local justice campaigns.
Full job description
Do you believe in a vision for your community that enacts your values for justice, wholeness, and peace? Do you want to learn how to build the people power necessary to win justice and make real, local change? As Director of Organizing with the Roanoke Justice Ministry, you’ll learn how to bring together our area's diverse faith community to address the root causes of serious community problems.
Roanoke Justice Ministry is a constituent-led, grassroots organization that brings together faith communities to address the root causes of serious community problems across the Roanoke Valley.
Roanoke Justice Ministry is part of the Direct Action and Research Training Center (DART), one of the largest faith-based community organizing networks in the country. We believe that advocating for racial and economic justice is fundamental to our identity as people of faith, and we know that successfully enacting justice requires having power in the public arena. We’ve been organizing interfaith coalitions to build power since 1982. A few of our victories include:
Hundreds of millions of dollars invested in affordable housing
Implementation of fair discipline policies in hundreds of schools, breaking the school-to-prison pipeline
$950 million invested in public transportation
Criminal justice reforms resulting in 60,000 fewer arrests of children
Primary Responsibilities:
The Director of Organizing will direct the organization, including hiring and supervising all future staff at Roanoke Justice Ministry. The Director of Organizing reports directly to the organization's board of directors. Main duties include:
Building engagement in the community
Train grassroots faith leaders how to engage others in the fight for justice & recruit new leaders and congregations into the organization.
Drive forward campaigns on community problems
Train grassroots leaders to identify community problems, conduct research, and develop action plans for issue campaigns.
Organize public actions of over 1,000 people.
Fundraising from local sources
Coordinate an annual 6-8 week fundraising drive with grassroots leaders who fundraise from individuals, small businesses, and major corporations in the community.
Ensure that dues from member congregations are collected.
Organizational development & management
Work with the organization’s Board of Directors to map out the strategic direction and development of the organization.
Train, supervise, and evaluate future Associate Organizers.
Ensure that the organization’s finances are in order. This includes maintaining accurate financial records, ensuring that all foundation proposals and reports are submitted in a timely fashion.
Who You Are
You're excited to direct a nonprofit organization and set the vision for its growth. You have a passion for justice, and are energized by the prospect of uniting people around a common cause. You are naturally curious and value strong relationships. You may or may not be personally religious. Either way, you have a genuine respect for all faith traditions and are excited about uniting faith communities to live out their call to “do justice”.
Roanoke Justice Ministry is a diverse coalition that includes communities of color, low-to-moderate-income communities and immigrant communities. We strongly encourage people from these backgrounds, as well as fluent Spanish speakers, to apply.
Qualifications:
Core passion to win on local justice campaigns
Excellent relationship-building skills
Enthusiasm for working with diverse faith communities
At least three years of professional experience in community organizing, advocacy, congregational or non-profit leadership
Experience leading teams of people
Possession of a valid driver’s license and access to a car
Ability to travel for training events throughout the year
This role is based in Roanoke. We are currently considering candidates that are based in the Roanoke Valley, or are willing to relocate for this position.
Why Choose DART
DART invests heavily in training and development of our team members. During your first year, we provide comprehensive professional development through an initial five-day classroom-style training, one-on-one mentoring from experienced DART consultants, and three multi-day trainings with organizers across the country. Ongoing professional development continues through individualized coaching and mentoring, as well as local, regional, and national staff trainings.
Compensation and Benefits
The salary range for this position is $63,000 to $70,000 based on experience. We recognize that highly qualified candidates with more experience may be eligible for a higher salary, and we are open to discussing compensation based on individual qualifications and expertise.

We believe that communities should determine their own futures. We bring this belief to life by training organizers and grassroots leaders how to uncover, research, and take action on problems plaguing their communities.
DART is one of the largest faith-based community organizing networks in the country, with 28 affiliated organizations spanning 10 states. By harnessing the power of organized people, these organizations hold political and economic systems accountable for acting fairly—pushing them to become more equitable and just. Since 1982 our network has fought for and won policy changes that have addressed systemic failures which disproportionately harm low-income communities as well as communities of color.
Some of our collective victories include:
- Over $450 million invested in affordable housing
- Implementation of fair discipline policies in more than 650 schools, breaking the school-to-prison pipeline
- Nearly $950 million invested in public transit
- Criminal justice reforms resulting in 60,000 fewer arrests of children in Florida since 2014.
DART is a network of doers. We understand that the road to a society free of racism and economic injustice is a long one that requires dedication and persistence. To create lasting change, we must do work that extends beyond charity and advocacy. While important, these efforts generally only serve as temporary solutions to permanent, systemic problems. In a world where the interests of the wealthy are prioritized, DART seeks to create communities that honor people power as the true catalyst for change.
Each local affiliate organization is its own autonomous entity, with their own 501c3 certification and a board of directors made up of local grassroots members. DART serves as a “helpmate” to our affiliates, providing a proven model for organizing and training on that model. We help find and train professional Community Organizers, but all Organizers are directly employed by the local affiliate, not DART itself.
