    The Outreach Team is a premier national field firm. We partner with organizations working to solve some of the biggest problems facing our society -- from protecting human rights to fighting climate change -- and help them build the resources they need to make an impact. We are a people-powered enterprise; our campaigns are effective because we hire diverse teams of talented people, invest in our staff, and treat them well.

    We are hiring Lead & Deputy Directors to manage our offices in Grand Rapids, Detroit, Ann Arbor, Warren, and Flint, Michigan.

All directors are expected to train staff in the field while leading by example themselves; they must also communicate long and short term goals to staff and manage campaign reporting. The Deputy Directors manage field staff and Team Leads and report to the Lead Director.

    We are hiring immediately. This position can run through 11/10/24, with opportunities to extend.
