Organizer

Overview:

We are rising up to stop the Musk-Trump rampage.

We are hiring a skilled organizer to bring this fight to the next level.

We do not go along to get along. We do not sit in K Street cubicles circulating coalition letters. We do not climb the Beltway ladder, pining for a job someday at Brookings.

We take action. We get results. We make life miserable for people in power. And we do not apolozige.

We played a prominent role in halting drilling on tens of millions of acres. We helped win a pause on fracked gas exports. We've made executives in the highest levels of business and government resign in shame from their positions of power.

We are gearing up to stop the fossil-fueled oligarchy overtakign our government. We are looking for the ideal candidate to help us do it.

Location:

Preference will be given to candidates in DC, NY CA, IA, NE, MA and PA though we are open to considering ideal applicants in other locations.

About You:

You are a collaborative and empathetic leader, deeply invested in team building. Your adeptness in team development is bolstered by your robust communication and organizational proficiencies. Committed to social change, you champion racial, economic, and environmental justice. As a self-starter, you excel in executing, implementing, and troubleshooting without excessive oversight. Your convictions align with the principles of nonviolent confrontation, direct action, and disruption.

You can thrive without handholding.

You do not just do what is asked of you, you figure out what is helpful.
