Role Summary

Flow Navigators support the operational unfolding of experiences across the Nia Weaving ecosystem.

What This Role Is Not

Flow Navigators do not:

• Lead facilitation or design core experiences independently

• Define organizational direction or philosophy

• Function as generic administrative assistants disconnected from the work itself

This role is embedded within an experience-centered practice and requires sensitivity to timing, atmosphere, communication, and relational dynamics.

• Enjoy coordinating moving parts in thoughtful and human-centered ways

• Are detail-oriented without becoming rigid

• Can remain calm and responsive in live environments

• Appreciate design, hospitality, facilitation, community work, or creative operations

• Are comfortable balancing structure with adaptability

• Communicate clearly and follow through consistently

Backgrounds may include:

• Event coordination

• Hospitality or retreat support

• Studio or creative operations

• Program logistics

• Community-centered administrative work

• Production or behind-the-scenes coordination

Work Structure

• Project-based to start, with Nia Weaving onboarding to take place before, during, and after projects

• Some evening or weekend availability may be needed for events

• Hybrid work depending on project needs

• Based primarily in Detroit and surrounding areas

Growth Potential

As Nia Weaving grows, Flow Navigators may have opportunities to:

• Take on larger operational responsibilities

• Support cross-pathway initiatives

• Help train future operational team members

• Expand into specialized coordination or program support roles
