Baltimore Humanistic Jewish Community
We are a secular-humanistic Jewish community seeking a part-time leader to guide holidays, education, and lifecycle ceremonies. The leader will plan celebrations, teach children and adults, officiate at ceremonies, and help the community grow.
This is a hybrid role of about 15 hours per week.
Cultural tradition:
Humanistic Judaism, Secular / Culturally Jewish
Compensation:
USD 35,000–45,000 / Annual
Qualifications (required):
• Ordination or leadership certification from a humanistic Jewish institution (or equivalent)
• Experience leading secular or cultural Jewish programming
• Strong teaching ability
Qualifications (preferred):
• Experience working with interfaith families
• Writing skills for ceremony creation
• Knowledge of Yiddish culture
What you should know about us:
The Baltimore Humanistic Jewish Community gathers about 110 households around a Jewish identity grounded in culture, ethics, and history rather than theology. We meet monthly for a Shabbat gathering, mark the holidays with secular-humanistic liturgy, and run a Sunday school that teaches Jewish history and ethics.
We are small, entirely lay-run at present, and candid that we are figuring out what professional leadership should look like for a community like ours.
