Mission
To end inequities in birth outcomes and improve experiences and outcomes for all birthing people by advancing respectful, physiologic care and equitable access to birth workers. We do this by serving as an organizing, learning, collaborating, and collective action group of funders working together and with the field to transform the system.
Vision

Here donors and funders may find the education, framework for change, resources, peer support, and collective funding opportunities needed to fund the field at a level that will get to systemic and transformative change.
Role Overview
FBJE is at an exciting inflection point. We have recently transitioned to a new fiscal sponsor, Community Initiatives, and are gearing up for our 2026 Summit, a major convening focused on aligning the field and philanthropic capital toward transformative change.
We’re looking for a highly organized, detail-oriented Executive Assistant to provide essential administrative and logistical support to both Co-Directors. This is an opportunity for someone who thrives in a mission-driven environment and takes pride in keeping operations running smoothly behind the scenes. The EA will be a key connective tissue between internal operations and external commitments during this important period of organizational growth. This is a regular position with the potential to grow into a part-time or full-time role, depending on business needs, as well as performance.

- Prepare contracts and invoices; compile and track materials for payment processing.
Meeting & Event Logistics

- Strong written communication skills; comfortable drafting polished correspondence and documents.
