About MCN
Muslim Community Network (MCN) empowers the Muslim community across all five boroughs of New York City through civic education, advocacy, community empowerment, and direct service. We're working to reshape what it means to be Muslim in America, helping people show up fully in the democratic process, get their voices heard, and access the resources they need to thrive.
Community empowerment sits at the center of everything we do. We build leaders, not just programs, because a community that can advocate for itself, address its own challenges, and celebrate its own heritage is a community built to last.
The Role
We're looking for a detail-oriented Finance & Operations Coordinator to help keep MCN's financial and operational engine running smoothly. Reporting to the Finance, HR, and Operations Manager, you'll support budgeting, grant reporting, contract compliance, and the day-to-day administrative work that lets our programs, from Know Your Rights training to the DOVE domestic violence program to our Halal Food Access initiative, actually happen.
This isn't just data entry. Every invoice tracked and every grant report filed directly supports services reaching 8,000 New Yorkers a year. If you're organized, love a well-built spreadsheet, and want your finance skills to mean something, this is a great fit.

• Help build a collaborative, learning-focused team culture

What You Bring

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field
• At least 1 year of experience in nonprofit finance, budgeting, grant reporting, or CBO operations
