Membership Analyst Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Lead the Future of Membership at a Mission-Driven Organization in a Season of Bold, Meaningful Change
Position Overview
As the Director of Global Membership at Sigma Nursing, you will bring a reinvigorated approach to how the organization thinks about, grows, and serves its membership. This is not a role for someone who defaults to the traditional playbook. We are looking for someone who can look at what Sigma has built, bring fresh perspective and bold ideas, and help us move a storied, honorific organization into a new era, while keeping member centricity at the absolute center of every decision.
In this role, you will serve as one of the organization's foremost champions for members. You'll be a constant, consistent voice across every department, every initiative, and every conversation, asking the critical question: "how is this member-centric?" You will own the full membership journey; from the moment someone first hears about Sigma through every touchpoint of their lifelong relationship with us. That means leading strategy and execution across member recruitment, onboarding, retention, personalization, and the member services function (our Global Member Service Center).
You will lead with data. A significant part of this role is spending meaningful time in membership analytics, studying churn data, retention patterns, acquisition trends, and member demographics, and translating those insights into strategy. You will also develop member journey maps, personas, and personalization frameworks that help us understand who our members are, what they need, and how we can serve them better at every stage.
You will collaborate across the entire organization, from Marketing & Communications to Nursing Strategy and Leadership, Global Events, Publications, and all levels of leadership, ensuring membership strategy is woven into every function. You will also play a key role in building recruitment training and resources that can be used at both the organizational and chapter level, and in identifying and cultivating organizational ambassadors who champion the mission even beyond formal membership criteria.
This role provides leadership and guidance of the Global Member Service Center (call center). You will manage this team with a service-first mindset, ensuring our members experience every interaction as relational, not transactional. You will also help build the systems, processes, and frameworks that support a high-functioning member services operation as we scale.
Success in this role looks like measurable positive shifts in membership numbers, a clearly articulated and member-informed value proposition, a personalization and onboarding framework that addresses member retention (particularly the first-year) and an organization that instinctively centers membership in everything it does. You'll be expected to balance big-picture strategy with real-time problem solving, dreaming up what's next while also being the person who picks up the phone when something breaks.
Location, Travel & Compensation
This is a hybrid and remote-friendly role, open to U.S.-based professionals nationwide.
Domestic and international travel to organizational events and in-person gatherings is expected approximately 10 - 12 times per year.
The salary range for this position is $75,000-$95,000; offers are made within this range to ensure equity, consistency, and fiscal responsibility.
A Week in the Life
Monday often starts with a review of what came in over the weekend through our member service system: tickets, inquiries, or unresolved issues that need attention before the week gets moving. You host a team meeting to align on the week's priorities, surface anything that needs to be escalated, and set the tone for the team.
Throughout the week, you spend meaningful time in data. This might mean pulling and analyzing a membership dashboard, reviewing acquisition and retention trends, comparing current-year numbers to prior cycles, or digging into a specific segment to understand what's driving a pattern. You don't just collect data-you do something with it. That often means setting up a call with a colleague from marketing, chapter services, or another department to share what you're seeing and work through what it means for your shared goals.
Collaboration is woven into every day. You are meeting with director-level peers across the organization on a regular cadence, not just when there's a fire, but because membership touches everything. One week you might spend significant time with the Global Events team ensuring that an upcoming conference has a clear membership recruitment and renewal presence. Another week, you might be deep in conversation with the chapter services team about what recruitment training resources you can help build. You're also doing proactive outreach to members, not just responding to problems, but genuinely checking in, building relationships, and staying connected to the member experience firsthand.
Time is also carved out for ideation and strategy. You are pitching new ideas, testing assumptions, and constantly asking what else we could be trying. You might be developing or refining a member persona, sketching out a new onboarding journey, or working through a retention strategy with a specific segment in mind. You bring those ideas to the table, not waiting for permission, but sharing with confidence and inviting others into the thinking.
The Global Member Service Center is also part of your week. You are meeting one-on-one with your direct report(s), monitoring service metrics and member satisfaction, and stepping in to problem-solve when something isn't working, whether that's a system issue, a process gap, or a member escalation. During peak seasons, you may step in directly to support member-facing interactions.
No two days look exactly the same, and that's by design. This role requires someone who is energized by, and genuinely comfortable with, bringing structure and clarity to complex situations. The first year in particular will be a season of building: clarifying benefits, mapping journeys, establishing rhythms, and helping the organization find its footing around a new membership vision. You will be in the middle of all of it.
You Would Thrive in This Position If

• You are fluent in membership. You know what churn data means, you can speak to retention as a pattern rather than a moment, and you understand the organizational cost of recruiting and keeping a member. Whether you arrived at this expertise through an association, fraternity/sorority, or another membership-driven organization, you bring both the vocabulary and the instincts of someone who has done this work with intention.

• You lead with data and do something with it. You are comfortable analyzing membership dashboards, identifying trends, and translating what you find into strategic action. You don't need someone to hand you the insights; you go find them, and then you bring people together to act on them.

• You are a collaborator, especially when there is misalignment. You have a track record of working effectively across teams, navigating competing priorities, and finding a path forward even when not everyone is on the same page. You challenge ideas, not people, and you leave the stickiness of hard conversations at the door.

• You are an influencer and a strategic thinker. You can sell ideas inside and outside the organization, build buy-in for change, and speak compellingly to a board, a member, and a colleague in the same week. Your communication style is both polished and candid; you know when to be formal and when to be direct.

• You hold both the relationship and the business with equal care. You understand that member centricity and organizational sustainability are not in tension; they require each other. You are energized by the human side of this work and grounded in the reality that membership is the organization's top revenue generator.

• You have people management experience (or a strong readiness for it). You have led or supported a team, understand what it means to develop people while delivering results, and can manage both the operational and the relational dimensions of being a manager.

• You are adaptable and genuinely comfortable with ambiguity. You do not require a fully built map to get moving. You can hold strategy and firefighting in the same week, build guardrails where none exist, and stay grounded and effective even when the path is still being figured out. A background in associations and/or a CAE credential is a valued plus, though not a requirement.
