The take-away
Ready to take on some of the most powerful forces in our society? We’re looking for an Executive Assistant to join a fierce, smart team challenging global corporations, holding them accountable, and creating a world where all people can thrive.
Why you’ll love coming to work every day
You’ll help change the world by being part of fearless and winning campaigns. You’ll be joining an organization that’s not satisfied with the world as it is—and has a vision for how it should be. When your quest is ending corporate abuse, you can’t be afraid to name names and demand what the world needs. For more than 40 years, we’ve been exposing and challenging the abuses of the likes of Nestlé, ExxonMobil, Philip Morris International, McDonald’s, and more. We don’t back down, and we run campaigns until we win.
You’ll work with awesome people. Join a team of passionate, kind, determined, optimistic, and solutions-oriented folks. We work hard, celebrate victories large and small, and always have each other’s backs.
You can take on big responsibilities as you go. You’ll thrive here as you develop new skills, tackle new challenges, learn, and grow. We pay lots of attention to building staff leadership, and we provide support and training to help you grow in your role.
You’ll be part of an organization committed to advancing racial equity and transforming systems of oppression. We are deeply committed to prioritizing the leadership of people who bear the brunt of corporate abuse: Black and Indigenous people and other people of color, women, low-income people, people in the Global South, and LGBTQIA+ folks around the world. Our unique culture has been fostered by a long history of women at the helm. We are actively focusing on the leadership of our staff of color, knowing we are stronger when the organization reflects the vision of the world we’re building together.
What you’ll do
Corporate Accountability wages powerful campaigns challenging corporate abuse—and behind every campaign victory you’ll find a variety of staff members supporting its success. That’s where you come in. The Executive Assistant works across the organization, operating with a unique bird’s eye view of how campaigns, communications, research, development, and operations all work together to be successful. You’ll work closely with our Executive Director, an activist and leader with decades of experience in corporate campaigning, to help carry out the organization’s mission in the world.
The core of your role will be nailing the day-in and day-out details and logistics for our Executive Director. And while you’re doing that, you’ll have the opportunity to sharpen your skills across multiple areas, from fundraising to implementing racial and gender equity analyses more deeply into the operations of our organization to staff communication on an organization-wide scale. As Executive Assistant, you’ll use your strong project management and interpersonal relationship-building skills to lead on key projects that support organizational priorities and meeting deadlines that are critical for the Executive Director’s role.
With your gained organizational knowledge and responsibilities as an extension of the Executive Director, you’ll have a hand in building an equitable, inclusive, positive, and impactful campaigns organization, both internally and externally.
Who you are
The rampant abuses of corporations and the outrageous amount of power they have make you mad as hell—and you want to do something about it.
You have a commitment to advancing racial equity and transforming systems of oppression, and are ready to do this in your day-to-day work. You understand that campaigning for justice must include working to dismantle white supremacy, institutional racism, colonialism, and anti-Blackness.
You have experience managing projects from start to finish. You know how to identify the right roles for a given project, build a successful timeline, meet deadlines, and motivate a diverse team of dedicated organizers towards achievable outcomes. And when something doesn’t go as planned, you’re ready to adapt and adjust to get back on track.
You’re goal oriented, and have experience motivating yourself towards desired outcomes. You have a growth mindset, always learning, reflecting, and integrating what you learn. You’re able to identify what is needed to succeed in your role, as well as what is needed for the success of the Executive Director's role. You are comfortable receiving feedback and applying it into how you approach and practice your work.
You’re a problem-solver and solutions-oriented. When problems occur, you’re able to come up with creative solutions and identify what tasks must be prioritized to accomplish the goals set forth. That’s because you’re a systems thinker: you know how to analyze a situation, get the information you need, and propose innovative ways to solve the quandary you and your team is facing.
You’re a people person. You’re an organizer at heart and maybe by training, and you have experience working with a wide range of people from various racial and cultural backgrounds. You know that connecting with and training people means being a good listener as well as an adept communicator.
You have experience keeping information secure and confidential. You know with whom and how to discuss sensitive matters, and know how to get clarity if you’re not sure.
You’ve got strong English writing skills. You know how to communicate complex issues in simple, clear messages—and you can tweak those messages for different audiences in different contexts. Your strong attention to detail ensures your writing is grammatically correct and clear. And you consistently seek and implement feedback to improve your craft as you go.
You have at least 3-5 years of related workplace experience.
What you’ll be responsible for in the day-to-day
Manage and coordinate the Executive Director’s schedule and activities based on priorities, including fielding requests for the Executive Director’s time.
Maintain the Executive Director’s administrative systems including filing and expense reports.
Use a strong racial equity and gender analysis to create equitable systems across all areas of your work and support the Executive Director in working through priorities.
Support on special projects for the Executive Director by keeping track of key deadlines, developing and facilitating timelines, synthesizing outcomes, sharing materials back to project leads, and managing next steps.
Support on all-staff communication, including drafting messaging on key organizational updates and tracking incoming messages and feedback.
Book travel for the Executive Director for organizing trips, board meetings, and donor visits.
Once it is safe to do so, travel 1-3 times each year to represent Corporate Accountability at events such as board meetings, planning sessions or campaigns events. Occasionally be available outside standard business hours in mornings, nights, or weekends based on key projects of an international organization balancing many time zones, such as board meetings.
Salary and benefits:
Salary range: $57,700-60,500 commensurate with experience.
Hours: Corporate Accountability has a 32 hour work week. Our core hours are 10AM - 4PM EST on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, with flexibility to determine your remaining hours of the week in coordination with your supervisor and team.
Our comprehensive benefit package includes: health insurance (with 90% of the premium for all tiers covered by the organization) and dental coverage (with 100% of the individual premium covered by the organization and the option to add dependents at an additional cost); FSA for transit, health care, and dependent care; and 401(k) with employer match.
Generous time off policies including one month of personal vacation time, one week of an office closure for collective rest, holidays, and unlimited wellness days to prioritize health.
Both internal and external training and leadership development opportunities.
Energetic, collaborative, and social campaign environment.
Location
Remote based on public health recommendations around COVID-19 centering the safety and health of our staff, with the option to eventually transition into our campaign headquarters in downtown Boston, MA. As an organization, we are moving in the direction of enabling our staff to live and work from wherever their personal circumstances take them. Once on-boarded, there will be a more formalized process regarding permanent remote work.
We are looking for great candidates from a wide range of backgrounds. If you don’t exactly fit the job description, but you know you have skills and experiences that are transferable to this position, please apply! Tell us about yourself and why you should be our next Executive Assistant.
To apply: Visit www.corporateaccountability.org/employment-opportunities . Attach your résumé to the online application and include a cover letter. Please include where you heard about the position. Given the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and our current capacity to process applications, we will be responding on a rolling basis and therefore might take between 2-4 weeks to respond to application.
Corporate Accountability stops transnational corporations from devastating democracy, perpetuating systemic racism, trampling human rights, and destroying our planet.

We’re not a startup, but we’ve got startup DNA: we’re nimble, constantly learning and iterating, and we push ourselves to push the envelope—to ignore “industry standards” and set a new standard.
We are an inclusive organization that welcomes and celebrates perspectives from all races and ethnicities, genders and identities, political and ideological affiliations, and experiences. We want everyone to feel empowered to bring their authentic selves to work.
We believe our political system should reflect the varied voices of our nation, and so should our team. That’s why we’re an Equal Opportunity Employer; people of color, women, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
RepresentUs is hiring a national campaign manager to oversee anti-gerrymandering campaigns in 6-10 states across the country throughout 2021. The 2021 state campaigns will educate the public on the redistricting process, provide opportunities for citizen voices to participate in the debate, and — most importantly — boldly hold legislators accountable to create the fairest maps possible.
This is a full-time, temporary position (likely through the end of 2021), with the possibility of extension after the campaigns wrap up. The application deadline is January 8, 2021; priority will be given to candidates who submit their applications before December 31, 2020.
The ideal candidate has significant experience leading political advocacy, issue-based campaigns, and/or candidate campaigns at either the state or federal level. Passion for RepresentUs’ mission to make America work for everyone, not just the powerful and well-connected, is essential. Commitment to working beyond partisanship is required, and past experience working with bipartisan or cross-partisan coalitions is preferred.
The Manager is responsible for :
Developing, in conjunction with national and state staff, campaign strategies, tactics, and timelines for 6-10 state-based anti-gerrymandering campaigns
Managing and taking ultimate responsibility for the overall strategy, execution, and success of these campaigns

Managing the overall campaign budget including vendors, marketing, paid media, and operations
Creating and developing systems for regular tracking of success against goals
Providing regular updates to RepresentUs Executive Team, coalition partners, and supporters
Collaborating with senior RepresentUs political team members and Executive Team around overall strategy
Skills and Experience:
10+ years experience in political advocacy, issue-based campaigns, and/or candidate campaigns at either the state or federal level
2+ cycle of working with political consultants either as a consultant or as the primary contact and/or decision maker on the campaign
Demonstrated ability managing both people and projects in a fast-paced environment, with experience leading teams of 5+ people (remote management experience preferred)
Ability to simultaneously manage multiple areas including state campaign strategies, contractors/vendors, internal staff, fundraising, and coalition members/partner organizations
Ability to understand and manage multiple tactical campaign areas such as digital, polling and research, organizing, and legislative strategy
Experience managing over $1M budget preferred
Experience with bold accountability campaigns preferred
Experience working in nonpartisan and cross-partisan environments preferred
A great attitude and a respect for people and their capabilities
Willingness to travel (when safe) to support campaigns as needed
Compensation and Benefits:
We are committed to bringing in top talent from all sectors. Accordingly, we offer competitive salaries and benefits, including health (Harvard Pilgrim HMO or UnitedHealthcare PPO network) and dental insurance (Delta Dental), both with family/spouse/domestic partner options, retirement benefits, a health reimbursement account, a dependent care account, disability insurance, a wellness benefit, a health concierge benefit, a $1,500 annual professional development stipend, and four weeks paid vacation, plus personal and sick time.
The annual salary range for the Anti-Gerrymandering Campaign Manager is $120,000-$170,000, dependent on location and experience.
This position is permanently remote.

Please apply online at represent.us/careers; no phone calls, please. Please provide the following documents (applications submitted without the required documentation will not be reviewed):

JOIN for Justice
Boston preferred but not required
Position Opening: Director of Finance and Administration
Classification: Full-Time, Exempt
Location: JOIN’s national office in Boston, MA (preferred)
Posted: August 2020
JOIN for Justice is building a powerful field of Jewish leaders capable of effectively organizing for justice, both inside and outside Jewish communities in the US. We organize because, in the words of Emma Lazarus, “Until we are all free, we are none of us free”—our destinies are bound up as one. We train and mentor rabbis, community leaders and community organizers through a variety of intensive organizing training programs, in person and online.
In the coming year, for example, we’ll be running our 18-month Clergy Fellowship, wherein we will train and support teams of rabbis in Miami and St. Louis to engage their congregations in new ways and get involved in local multi-faith, multi-racial organizing. We will also be running a new 6-month long national organizing training program for disabled Jewish organizers in their 20s and 30s -- where participants will get intensive training and individualized coaching as they learn about disability organizing history, the nuts and bolts of running campaigns and how to organize to fight ableism, racism and other forms of exclusion.
We believe that our Jewish religious, historical, and cultural traditions compel us to organize our communities and take powerful action together in support of the pressing social justice issues of our time and that those unique traditions can be an indispensable resource in harnessing the power of faith for justice. Thousands of people we have trained are now tapping these traditions and skills as they work in cities across the country forging relationships, building power, and winning change for all of our communities.

JOIN OUR TEAM!!
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon Foundation (501c3) is seeking individuals to join our Board of Directors in 2020! Potential new Board members (“candidates”) will submit their application by the deadline indicated below and may progress through our process depending on skill-set and qualifications required for the functions of each Board. The application process potentially includes an interview with NARAL staff and Board members. Board members are eligible to serve two consecutive three-year terms. New Board Members will be offered a new Board member orientation. Board membership is voluntary, and serving on the Board of Directors is not paid work.
Since 2016, NPCO(F) has been taking concrete steps to improve Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the organization. We are committed to promoting the reproductive justice framework, ensuring racial equity in our organizational policies and practices and increasing diversity on our board and staff. Through our programming and advocacy, our C3, C4, and PAC organizations strive to build a world that promotes reproductive justice for all Oregonians. In regard to our board recruitment, we are particularly interested in inviting the leadership of people of color, men and transgender individuals, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, immigrants/refugees, and people with disabilities. It is vital to us that our Boards reflect the skills/abilities/knowledge needs of our organization, as well as the rich diversity of our community.
Who We Are
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon is the leading grassroots pro-choice advocacy organization in Oregon and is a state affiliate of NARAL Pro-Choice America . Knowing that Oregon needs a strong political force advocating for women and all people who can become pregnant, we have identified goals and strategies that we see as critical to our organizations’ – and our movement’s – success. Our 2018 strategic plan , developed over months of engagement by our Board of Directors and staff with input from over 75 members and key organizational allies, will guide us through the growth needed to effectively meet the challenges and embrace the opportunities that lie ahead. We have two entities which help us achieve our goals, and each has a Board of Directors: NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon develops and sustains a constituency that uses the political process to guarantee every person who can become pregnant the right to make personal decisions regarding the full range of reproductive choices, including preventing unintended pregnancy, bearing healthy children, and choosing legal abortion.
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon Foundation supports and protects, as a fundamental right and value, a person’s freedom to make individual decisions regarding the full range of reproductive choices – including preventing unintended pregnancy, bearing healthy children, and choosing legal abortion – through education, training, organizing, and research. We champion public policy that addresses disparities in reproductive health care and promotes health equity for all people.
Ideal Candidates in 2020
Every board of directors seeks members who will uphold its organization’s mission and values, and will work to govern and direct the organization in a way that provides excellent stewardship and success of its goals.

Part time
JOIN OUR TEAM!!
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon Foundation (501c3) is seeking individuals to join our Board of Directors in 2020! Potential new Board members (“candidates”) will submit their application by the deadline indicated below and may progress through our process depending on skill-set and qualifications required for the functions of each Board. The application process potentially includes an interview with NARAL staff and Board members. Board members are eligible to serve two consecutive three-year terms. New Board Members will be offered a new Board member orientation. Board membership is voluntary, and serving on the Board of Directors is not paid work.
Since 2016, NPCO(F) has been taking concrete steps to improve Diversity, Equity and Inclusion at the organization. We are committed to promoting the reproductive justice framework, ensuring racial equity in our organizational policies and practices and increasing diversity on our board and staff. Through our programming and advocacy, our C3, C4, and PAC organizations strive to build a world that promotes reproductive justice for all Oregonians. In regard to our board recruitment, we are particularly interested in inviting the leadership of people of color, men and transgender individuals, people who identify as LGBTQIA+, immigrants/refugees, and people with disabilities. It is vital to us that our Boards reflect the skills/abilities/knowledge needs of our organization, as well as the rich diversity of our community.
Who We Are
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon is the leading grassroots pro-choice advocacy organization in Oregon and is a state affiliate of NARAL Pro-Choice America . Knowing that Oregon needs a strong political force advocating for women and all people who can become pregnant, we have identified goals and strategies that we see as critical to our organizations’ – and our movement’s – success. Our 2018 strategic plan , developed over months of engagement by our Board of Directors and staff with input from over 75 members and key organizational allies, will guide us through the growth needed to effectively meet the challenges and embrace the opportunities that lie ahead. We have two entities which help us achieve our goals, and each has a Board of Directors: NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon develops and sustains a constituency that uses the political process to guarantee every person who can become pregnant the right to make personal decisions regarding the full range of reproductive choices, including preventing unintended pregnancy, bearing healthy children, and choosing legal abortion.
NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon Foundation supports and protects, as a fundamental right and value, a person’s freedom to make individual decisions regarding the full range of reproductive choices – including preventing unintended pregnancy, bearing healthy children, and choosing legal abortion – through education, training, organizing, and research. We champion public policy that addresses disparities in reproductive health care and promotes health equity for all people.
Ideal Candidates in 2020
Every board of directors seeks members who will uphold its organization’s mission and values, and will work to govern and direct the organization in a way that provides excellent stewardship and success of its goals. Given the distinct mission and efforts of NARAL Pro Choice Oregon and NARAL Pro-Choice Oregon Foundation, we believe our ideal Boards are comprised of individuals who provide a balance of the following skills and/or experiences:

Greater diversity as it pertains to race/ethnicity, age, sex/gender, geographic and socioeconomic experience
