Environment Massachusetts Campaign Associate
Join to apply for the Environment Massachusetts Campaign Associate role at PennEnvironment
Environment Massachusetts is hiring a Campaign Associate to oppose drilling in our oceans, protect mature and old-growth forests, save our pollinators and protect the water we drink and the air we breathe.
Environment Massachusetts is a policy and action group running campaigns to tackle the most profound problem of our time: a way of living that is depleting and destabilizing the natural world.
Were advocates for energy conservation and renewable power, so we can keep oil in the ground and stop burning fossil fuels. Were champions of plastic reduction, so nothing we use for a few minutes is allowed to pollute our oceans for centuries. And were defenders of wildlife and wild places, both for their own sake as well as the awe and wonder they bring to our lives.
- Build powerful coalitions: Reach out to a broad range of organizations and affected constituency groups across the political spectrum to demonstrate support for our campaign goals.
- Earn traditional media and social media attention: Organize news conferences and write opinion pieces. Build a following on social media for your campaign.
- Organize events and work with volunteers: Organize webinars, community events and public meetings. Recruit organizations and members of the public to attend and participate.
- Lobby elected officials: Meet with decision makers - from city council members to state legislators - to make the case for our campaign goals. When a critical vote is happening on your campaign, work to demonstrate the support youve been building on the ground to help line up the votes needed to win.
- Research and write reports: Catalog and analyze data relevant to the issue and our policy proposals to help influence public debate and earn media attention for our cause.
- Recruit new people to your team: Help build your team by recruiting volunteers, interns and full-time staff.
- Run a grassroots campaign office each summer: Run a campaign office for the summer to raise money to support our campaigns, build our organization and membership, and help build critical and timely grassroots support to win key campaigns while honing your organizing and management skills. You may be assigned to a different office location for the summer and should be flexible to move.
Entry-level candidates are encouraged to apply. Though we expect you to take your campaign and run with it, we provide training on advocacy and organizing skills, as well as oversight by an experienced advocate. Candidates must live in or be willing to relocate to Massachusetts.
Ideal Candidates Will Have - Passion for the environment and using the power of grassroots organizing to win campaigns
- Leadership experience
- Top-notch writing and public speaking skills
- Good listening skills
- An eagerness to learn
- Organizing experience, including building campus or community groups
Compensation And Benefits The target annual compensation for this entry level position is $37,000-$38,000 in the first year. Environment Massachusetts offers a competitive benefits package. Our benefits package includes medical, dental, and vision insurance for employees and dependents, paid time off, a commuter benefit program, a 401(k) plan with employer match, parental leave, long term disability insurance, and may include needs-based student loan assistance. We also offer an excellent training program and opportunities for advancement.
