    Descrição

    The Coalition of Immokalee Workers (CIW), an award-winning worker-led human rights organization based in Immokalee, Florida, is hiring Campaign Coordinators to help advance its Campaign for Fair Food. The position is based out of Immokalee, FL.

    The CIW’s national Campaign for Fair Food educates consumers on the issue of farm labor exploitation and forges alliances between farmworkers and consumers in an effort to enlist the market power of major corporate buyers to help end that exploitation. One of the most well-known and highly-regarded consumer campaigns of its generation, the CIW’s Campaign for Fair Food is known for its innovative, creative multi-day tours, marches, and other actions as well as an engaged base of allies. Through these efforts, the CIW and allies have brought 14 multinational corporations into the Fair Food Program, eliminating egregious human rights abuses from the supply chains of participating buyers.

    The Campaign Coordinator works with a dynamic multi-lingual team of farmworker leaders who direct the campaign, as well as a diverse base of consumers, faith leaders, community groups, and youth and students. Ideal candidates are highly responsible, work well in teams as part of a fast-paced environment, and possess excellent written and verbal communication skills. The position includes the opportunity of regular travel across the U.S.
